Homemade poptarts

I used puff pastry and jam/jelly to make these delicious treats.
I opened up the store bought puff pastry until it lay flat. Then sliced it into 3 strips using a pizza cutter on the fold lines. I then cut each strip in half. At this point you should have 6 pieces. Do the same with the 2nd sheet of puff pastry. I then added 1 tablespoon of jam/jelly into the center of each of the 6 rectangles leaving about an inch between jelly and edge, then take a matching rectangle and place it on top of each of the jelly filled rectangles. I used an egg slightly beaten to brush around the edges of the rectangle and used a fork to press around the edges to help form a seal and prevent the jelly from leaking out during baking. I also brushed the egg over the top of each filled poptarts rectangle and used a sharp knife to make 2-3small slits into top of poptarts to allow steam to escape. Place on baking sheet. Bake at 400 degrees for 12-15 minutes or until golden brown. After cooling, I mixed 1/2 cup powdered sugar and a little water and mixed to form a glaze to drizzle over poptarts.

Homemade Hamburger Helper

The other day was a bad pain day, yet I had to make dinner. I decided to try a homemade Hamburger Helper.
I diced and sauteed 1/4 of a medium onion, then browned 1/2 pound of ground turkey (I cannot eat beef but you can substitute it in) 1 TBSP of smoked paprika (reg paprika if you don't have smoked, 1 TBSP chili powder, 1 Tsp each of onion and garlic powder, added in 2 heaping TBSP of tomato paste. Once it's all combined with the meat and onion mixture, I added 1 1/2 cups of beef broth and 1 cup of uncooked elbow macaroni. Bring it up to a boil then reduce heat to medium or medium low to allow for a steady simmer. Simmer for 15-18 minutes then remove from heat and add 1 cup of cheddar cheese and stir, let sit for 2-3 minutes before serving.
It tasted good and was so simple and quick. Because I wasn't feeling well (bad pain day), I forgot to snap a pic to share.

My neighbor sent me this photo that she took while visiting the coast.
It's such a beautiful sunset.

Doe in the early morning fog

We've had more fog this year. I thought this was a very peaceful looking pic.
