Winter Break-day one

Yesterday was my last day of Fall quarter! Yeah!! I had a great time this quarter but I am thankful for this break. Now that it's here and I'm starting to relax a bit, I feel how much I need it. Plus, now I'm really getting excited to see family and two future sisters-in-law next week!!!!!!!!!!!! For day 1 of break, I spent the morning the the kitchen making these beauties:
They are meat sauce to be used in lasagne at some future date. As each one makes an 8x8 pan, we've got just about a year's worth, I'd say :)
This evening Jefferson and I will be high-classing it at the Microsoft Office party at the Space Needle. Rewind to last night and I made this little number (no pun intended) for a kid our ward who's birthday is today.
This was an experiment for me since rice krispies treats are really fluid when they first come out of the pot, but turned out perfect! And since this is a pretty boring blog to look at, here are some old pictures:

Good job with the meat sauce and rice crispy numbers. I think rice crispy candy is too sticky to work with.

Vanessa you put me to shame! Im so thrilled that you are getting a break-school can be so intense...We can hardly wait to see you! I hope our weather gets better-it was cold and rainy today--I loved it but it would be such a repeat for you!
