*My homemade refried beans turned out well except that the recipe I used called for too much pepper. I do think I will make them again since they are super easy and cheap. I was skeptical about freezing them, however my MIL and SIL convinced me I could...so I'll give it a try.
I did not pose Kendall for this pic. This is what she did as soon as I opened the lid of the crock pot with the beans (which had cooked overnight). I'll be honest, they don't make your house smell like roses.
*Last night I experimented with Wonton wrappers. They are very low in calories and I had seen a few recipes using them in muffin tins. I made enchilada filling and filled each cup. They were tasty and my mind has already started spinning as to the possibilities you could fill these babies with. :)
*After dinner we treated the kids to Rite Aid in honor of Cam's great report card/parent conference. They both got cotton candy (holy cow is that stuff nasty looking AND tasting!!). :)
*I've started buying 5 dozen eggs at a time because we go through them fast. I usually use 5-6 egg whites most mornings for Chris' breakfast. I'm curious if the good protein is in the white or the yolk?? Hmmm...
*The kids got a lot of Easter candy in their baskets when we celebrated this past weekend with Chris' family. It's nice that they forget all that they got because I snagged both of their Sees mini boxes and stashed them away for myself. :)

I want to know what you come up with with the Wonton wrappers. I bought some & made one thing and ended up throwing the rest out (because I was too lazy to come up with other things to use them for.)
