Recipes to Share

First off I want to update you on my weight loss.  I did not mention it last week because I lost nothing and this week I put 1/2-1 pound back on.  It may or may not be because I just needed a break from the dieting and wanted to cook, really cook.  I have been coming across recipes that I print out for when I felt I could eat this sort of food again and I just wanted to make a couple. 
First off I made this Cheesy Italian Crescent Casserole that I found on the Saltbox Farms blog.  Sharon is a neighbor of mine.  She literally lives down the road and around the corner and has the most wonderful primitive shop across the drive from her house.  I have not made it over to see what new spring items she has in yet but I will, I promise I will. 

Doesn't this look yummy?  You can get the recipe here.
I had a small slice along with a salad.  Hubs ate a couple of large slices and has been eating the leftovers.  Now if I would have stopped there it might have been OK but,  Happy Mrs. C mentioned a wonderful food sight called the Southern Plate and I subscribed to her site and have been getting some wonderful recipes in my e-mail.  So on to desert:

This would be Mama Reed's Southern Style Rice Pudding.  Yummy!!!!  I had a small portion of this, yes I did.  You can find the recipe here.  Here is what it looked like in the center.

 So that is my story of my weight gain this week.  I would like to say it was sad but I sure enjoyed the food so it is not entirely sad.  I am going to try and step it up again the start of this next week.  I now have 11  instead of 10 more pounds to loose.  Hope you stop in for a visit at each of these sites and try out these recipes I know you will like them!  Blessings!
