christian relief fund

Hey!  1 week of voting started today for the Chase Community Giving contest, round 2. One of the contenders will win $500,000! Christian Relief Fund has a very good chance if we help them. These guys help children in 3rd world countries by providing food, clean water, education, etc. If just 10,000 facebook users vote for them, they can win this grant! It will feed 1277 children for a year.  So far we have around 870 votes, and the contest ends May 25th.  I still believe we can get 10,000 votes!  Or at least be ranked in the 25th position, and get a little money to help kids from starving.  I was wondering if you could vote... it takes less than 90 seconds.  4 days left... let's do this!

This is for REAL!  Our friend directs CRF.  If you want to talk more about to make sure it isn't a scam, you can e-mail me.  =)

All you have to do is click on this link: http://apps.facebook.com/chasecommunitygiving/charities/510183054-christian-relief-fund?src=twitter  and "like" CHASE on Facebook.  Then click the green Vote & Share button.  Let's do this and feed 1277 kids for an entire year!  It ends on the 25th, so there isn't a whole lot of time left.  Thanks so much!  With God we can do this!  =)

Also, if you would pass this on to all your Facebook friends, this would spread like wildfire!  There's a TON of people on Facebook... let's get this going! 

Thanks again!

(Btw.  We're kinda embarrassed about not posting in forever.

There will (hopefully) be more recipes soon.

If you follow Camille's blog, you'll notice she hasn't posted in, like A YEAR CAMILLE, SHHESSH!

Haha, jk.

BUT.

I (Abby) have mostly been making dinner, and it's a little hard trying to take pictures of the process when it's already 7:30 and dinner still isn't made.

Not... that that's ever happened.  :P

Pizza Pockets {Camille}

Hello guys! Wow, it's been awhile since I've posted something! ;) Abby and I have been very busy, so bare with us as we try to post more. :)

Here is a recipe for my family's new favorite lunch food. These Pizza Pockets are amazing {much better then Hot Pockets......trust me ;D}.

You'll Need:

1/4 cup onions chopped

1 tablespoon butter or margarine

1 pound ground beef

8 ounces mozzarella cheese shredded

1/2 cup pepperoni chopped

2/3 cup pizza sauce

1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning dried crushed

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon black pepper

2 8-ounce cans refrigerated

crescent dinner rolls

1 egg

1 tablespoon water

Directions:

 1. In a 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat, sauté onion in butter or margarine until tender. Add beef and sauté until it loses most of its pink color. Remove from heat; drain off fat. Stir in cheese, pepperoni, pizza sauce, Italian seasoning, salt and pepper; set aside.

2. Preheat oven to 400°. Separate the 2 cans of dinner rolls into eight rectangles. On waxed paper, roll each piece into a 7 x 6-inch rectangle; pinch perforations together. Place 1/2 cup of the meat mixture on half of one rectangle. Moisten edges of rectangle with water and fold in half to completely enclose the filling. Press edges together, fold over and crimp with the tines of a fork. Repeat with remaining rolls and filling. Place pockets on ungreased baking sheets.

3. In a small bowl, beat egg and water. Brush on top of each pocket, being careful not to let egg drip onto baking sheets. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

And then fight over the pockets with the rest of your siblings. ;)

It's a wrap! {Abby}

Hey guys.

Whew, it's been a while hasn't it?

Sorry about that.

There's this little thing called life that sometimes gets in the way of posting.

I'm sure you can understand... right?

Not to excuse us from not posting.  I mean, we even got an e-mail from Blogger themselves telling us we needed to post on our blog so they know we are an actual person, not a robot.

How embarrassing!

And no Blogger, we are not a robot.  We are actual people.  With actual lives.

Anyways... I'm posting now... so... yea.  And I feel really awkward doing so because this is pretty embarrassing.

But, enough of that.  On to the point.

Today my mom made these pita/soft bread tortilla things.  Whatever they're called.  Then she cooked some chicken and this.. uh... like ranch sauce.  It was really good.  I'm not much of a person to "branch out" so to speak when it comes to food.  I'm pretty picky, and I don't really like to try new foods.

But, let me tell you, this was amazing.

No.

Let me show you.

Yum.

We ate that for lunch.  No dinner.  Wait.... I dunno.  We ate it at 3:00pm cuz we had a late breakfast.  So... did we eat it for linner?

So now I'm gonna go eat, uh, dinner.  At 8:30pm.  And then we're gonna go watch National Treasure 2.  And possibly another movie.

Yea.  We're those kinds of people.
