Mini Apple Tart Day!

It was definitely time to enjoy an amazing apple pie, but instead of the full pie I made mini tarts.  

Super easy and a lot of fun!  

Chilly Day & Comfort Food

Written By: Ooh La La (Danielle Marie)

A day of chilly weather, overcast skies with an occasional bit of sunshine brought out my inner desire for "comfort food".

I'm not a huge fan of casseroles but this recipe was so easy and tasted extremely yummy and delicious!  Had to share!

Stove Top Swiss Casserole 

(recipe adapted from http://thefrugalgirls.com/2009/07/stove-top-swiss-casserole-recipe.html) 

4 Chicken Breasts 

(I put them in the crock pot for 4 hours on high before baking in the oven)

2 pkgs. of Swiss Cheese

1 16oz. box of penne pasta

1 box of Stove Top Chicken Stuffing

1 c. of Sour Cream

2 cans of Cream of Mushroom 

1. While boiling pasta, shred the chicken.

2. Mix the chicken, cooked pasta and soup cans together.

In a separate bowl mix the sour cream and uncooked stuffing

First spread the noodle mixture in a rectangular (cooking sprayed) pan and cover with a layer of the stuffing mixture.  Place the slices of Swiss cheese on top and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes.
(Keep it uncovered when baking)

Make room for this warm belly food!

Next time it's dessert!

Gray Skies and Orange Hues!

Written By: Ooh La La (Danielle Marie)

With the onset of fall weather, or more likely my desire for fall weather, I felt it was appropriate to talk about fashion.  The basic colors of black, white and gray seem to be popping up everywhere (actually they never truly went out of style, we are just seeing more of them now), but how do we incorporate the neutral with the color?

My love for orange is always renewed in the fall!

Add a basic black pencil skirt. This is a wardrobe staple!

Bring on the orange!
