Welcome

Welcome to our place...just two steps away from the funny farm! To explain this name, whenever things get crazy at our house, I always say "Well, we are just two steps away from the funny farm!" As a very busy homeschooling family, things DO sometimes get a bit chaotic. But we love this life of living and learning together and there is never a dull moment!

The picture of the beautiful Amish farm on this page was taken while we were on the Strasburg Railroad.

Turkey leftovers

We LOVE turkey leftovers! In fact, today I'm roasting another turkey just to have some more! I bought a fresh 22 pound turkey on sale at the store today and it's in the oven now. The Thanksgiving turkey disappeared too quickly! Now we'll have plenty for sandwiches and we'll freeze some for later.

One of my favorite recipes for leftover turkey is Turkey Noodle Casserole. It is very good! Here's the recipe:

In large skillet over medium heat, cook 1 cup chopped celery and 1/2 cup chopped onion in 2 T. butter till tender. (I usually skip this step and do without the celery and onion). Stir in 2 cans of cream of chicken soup, 1 cup milk, 2 cups of bite-sized cooked turkey (or chicken) and 2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Cook and stir until cheese melts. Cook 1/2 pkg of medium egg noodles and drain. Combine noodles and Turkey mixture into 13x9 baking dish. Top with 1 cup of soft buttered bread crumbs. Bake 35 minutes at 350. This serves 6-8 people.
