Yummy! More Green Chili Chicken Enchiladas

We just came back from my high school yearly alumni picnic. My wonderful husband, TonyB made these!  Yummmmmmmm!!!

Of course, I'm kinda mad. One of my son-in-laws did not come. He had no excuse. My husband accidentally put a dozen of these into his wife's (our second daughter) cooler by accident. So he gets to reap the benefits even though he chose not to come. I wanted to show off both of my son-in-laws at my annual high school alumni picnic, but my daughter gave a lame reason why he didn't show up--they both "woke up on the wrong side of the bed." Give me a break!

My Homemade Version of Little Girl Tutus.

What a beautiful little fairy princess! She is dressed for her cousin's 3rd birthday party.
Since both my daughters' have little daughters of their own, I got to make these very easy no-sew tutus. Here are some pictures of the tutus. They didn't take very long at all to make. The easy part was that the spools already came in 6-inch wide x 25 feet or 100 feet long.  The hard part was deciding which colors to buy.

I cut them in 23-inch lengths.

Here is a tutorial over at "The Imagination Tree," on how to make them. I used ribbon for the waist instead of elastic.

For one, I measured the little one's waist, which was 18 inches. I then added 30 more inches to be able to make the tie.

Somehow, they both came out great--if I do say so myself.
This is the one that the tiny fairy princess is wearing in the pic a.



This is the second one I made for the tiny fairy princess above for her own birthday party.




I tried to match the tulle as close as I could to the invitation

Cinco de Mayo 2013


My husband "TonyB" loves to cook. In fact, he is the cook in this family. Here is a sampling of what he made tonight. Tacos that were made with grilled rib eye-steak! I not only ate it, I inhaled it!
