Anyone who is a scrapbooker may know who Becky Higgins is. She is one of the my favorite scrapbookers of all time. One day while checking out her website I noticed that she had a recipe section. Of course I had to look. I decided to try her Chicken Noodle Soup recipe and it was a big hit with my family. Here is the recipe - one batch fed my family of five with very little left over.
CHICKEN NOODLE SOUP
2 chicken bouillon cubes (or 2 tsp. granules)
2 cans chicken broth
1 c. chopped carrots
2 c. chopped celery
1/4 c. chopped onion
1/2 (half) can cream of chicken soup
1/4 c. milk
1/2 cube (4 Tbsp.) butter
1/4 c. flour
2 c. chopped cooked chicken (2 pieces)
4-6 oz. egg noodles
Boil chicken until fully cooked. Cook egg noodles. Dissolve 2 bouillon cubes in 1 cup boiling water. Add chicken broth and vegetables to the liquid until tender. In separate bowl, whisk a half a can of cream of chicken soup and milk until smooth. Whisk soup and milk mixture into broth and vegetables. Melt butter then stir into flour. Add to soup mixture. Add chicken and noodles. Optional: Season to taste with salt & pepper or Schillings garlic & herb seasoning.

The Balloons are in the Air....
This past week has been the Albuquerque Balloon Fiesta. This is the big event of the year. It's always fun to see the balloons in the air, especially the shape one. Here are a few pictures that I was able to take from the parking lot at work:

Apples, Apples, & more Apples...
About 45 minutes from us, is a great little apple orchard. Their apples went on sale a little over week ago. The only problem is that you have to wait forever to get some. Carl was a good sport about it. He went to pick some up for me so that I could make some applesauce and ended up being there for about 3 hours- that includes the time spent in the car and finally giving up and walking down the road to where they were actually selling them.
But the time and patience paid off. I was able to get 16 quarts and 1 pint. Plus a little left over to eat right away.
