Bakin' Time

It took me a while, but I finally learned something about myself - I cook & bake most when it's cooler weather. This makes plenty of sense since no one wants to be heating up an already warm house, but in my efforts to relax today, I made two batches of cranberry orange scones & then tried a new crock-pot recipe: lasagne. Yum!

The scones were a hit with Ken. I made the extra batch just because I could.

Happy children!

As for the lasagne, when the girls got home, they loved the smell & polished off their bowls! I will need to add extra sauce next time as the sides burnt a little or just cook it for 4 1/2 hours instead. All in all, it has been fun experimenting.
