My First Posted Recipie keibasa with sauerkraut and potatos

Sorry about the vagueness of this but I made this the other day on our tiny dorm skillet its so simple did not cost much at all. It made enough for Big Man and me with left overs. Normal people it would probably serve 4.
You Will Need
1 polish kielbasa ( I think i used johnsonville? maybe)
1 can sauerkraut
1 can whole potatoes
 First cute the kielbasa up into even sized pieces and cook on both sides on about low/medium for 3 minutes each side. I cooked them with the lid on in order to eat them more.
 this just shows the cans i used.
 while the kielbasa was cooking i drained the can potatoes and cut them into quarters. Add this to the pan after you cook both sides of the kielbasa.
 About a minute after you put the potatoes in put the sauerkraut in. stir it and cook for about 5-10 more minutes, i did this with the lid on taking ti off to stir every couple minutes.
It was Delicious especially with the green beans.
So there you go quick and simple and very Delicious.
I love being able to make meals in our room that aren't from a box and i was so glad that i could do all this in my one skillet.

Random Tid Bits

 
Big man and I have been dieting but in order to make it a little bit easier (and so big man isn't so grumpy) we decided to do something to make it a little easier. We have these 4 oz. rubbermaid containers and we can have one a day with a treat. Mine are m&ms and his are peanut m&ms. Since we know that this is all we get a day we have to make sure not to eat them all at one time. Doing this makes dieting a lot easier. Because we get a small treat everyday we are less likely to make a huge break.
This is how I am starting to get more organized. I have fallen in love with post-it-notes. What you can't see in the picture is that my desk is lined with stickies too. On the stickies I write things that I need to get done. Each note gets its own task. As I finish what is on the sticky I get the enjoyment of crumpling the note up. What Like the most about this is that as I complete things I can actually see list of things I need to do get smaller. I have been using this for two weeks and so far it has been doing great for me.

I posted this just because I love breakfast and I love that I can make all this on my little electric skillet =].

IM BACK

Thanks to pinterest and some encouragement from my good friend Bethany, I have decided to start blogging again. Every time I have cooked dinner and done something I thought was exciting I have thought about starting this blog again. So here we are and I will try to do better this time. I have so many pictures on my phone to catch up with so let the excitement begin =]
Most of the things I will be posting about will be things I'm doing at college in a tiny door room so they should be pretty simple. I will try to share recipes and crazy little organization tips I randomly come up with. And probably every now and then you will get random rants about who knows what.

Things that have happened while I was gone.

I'm almost done with my 2nd year of college.
I made it into the teacher education program at my school. 
this is the pin they give you when you make it in

I still with my big man.

I'm trying to get more organized. (a post on this is in the near future)
I have finished 3 internships. in a preschool, 4th and 5th grade class.
I'm trying to get into better shape(still). this lovely sign is on the front of our fridge because he scares me. and no I do not know who he is i just googled angry faces.

I am really starting to see how truly blessed i am.
I have learned the wonders on pinterest and drawsomething

I got a new tattoo.
This seems like a good start for now. I will catch you up more as time goes a long but for now I should probably get back to school work
