Everyone has their own special way for making potatoes, but around here sour creme and butter is the order~
This has become our favorite meal for this Winter....Hot Roast Beef Sandwich....so good! TIP~ When I look for a Roast...I always buy one big enough to get 3 meals out of it. First meal~ I do the traditional roast with potatoes and carrots
Second meal ~ I do the hot roast beef sandwiches or Beef & Noodles and the Third Meal~ I make homemade Vegetable Soup with the left over beef and gravy~
This saves a lot of money and it makes it EASY for me, These are quick and delicious meals...that you just can't beat with a ten foot pole...as my Mom always says....lol ;)
Good News~Tomorrow Wed. Feb. 4~ I will be the featured blog on Secrets in the Sauce~ I am so excited to be getting this chance. SITS is a fantastic blog that features a blog everyday. If you haven't ever been to visit with the Sits girls...then don't wait any longer! Go over there and read all about them! Heather and Tiffany are great gals! To visit them you can click on their button on my side bar, or the link above.
Thank You~ I want to thank every one that has signed up for my 100th post giveaway! You girls have made my week with all the wonderful comments! If you haven't yet signed up....you still have time! Read all about it in the post below....titled 100th post celebration! I want all of you to know...that I am working on getting around to each and every one of you, to personally thank you! It is taken me forever, there are so many new names and when I go to your blogs to thank you...I get so wrapped up in reading and looking around...so just know that every comment and entry is appreciated and I will return them! Then all you faithfuls I haven't forgotten you either! I am making my way around slowly but surely!
What I am up to this week~ Cleaning! Trying to get a few things cleaned out and organized~ Mission impossible~! I have a couple of craft projects I am working on, but it is a slow process for me! I have come to 2 conclusions....1. don't turn on the putter until everything is done for the day! and 2. There just isn't enough hours in the day! Next, I have to brag a little here...I am working on two internet decorating consultations right now and let me tell you....I am loving it!!!! What a joy to work on these! They are both going to be fabulous! I am so thankful for these ladies giving me the opportunity to help them! I don't {think} I will be posting again until the weekend....I just have so many things going on right now!
Oh, some of you have ask about Hoss and Lucy~ so here is the update~ They went to the Vet again last week for another set of shots~ Hoss never meets a stranger....Lucy tries to hide from everybody~ they are so different! Hoss now weighs 26 lbs and Lucy weighs 24 lbs....I can't believe how big they are now! They are loosing that puppy look so fast! I do appreciate all of the questions about them!
Blessings to you all, Nancy

Nancy, you just talked about one of our very favorite meals too. I love to get a big roast and stretch it out. Same with meat loaf...I made a really big one last week then we had meatloaf sandwiches. Yummy!
Congratulations on your decorating jobs. I can't wait to see. Will be checking out SITS also.
Have a great week!
Nancy,
Glad everything is going well! I will be checking out SITS tomorrow in your honor!

Oh good for you on your consulting jobs, I hope you will be able to post before and afters ??
I love me some Roast Beef, LOL I got one over the holidays(holiday roast) from a butcher shop you could cut with a fork, so good...I never get 3 meals though, they eat it here like its going out of style. I definitely get 2 though :)
Nice post,
Kathy :)
You & I share a passion for trim & so much more! It's lovely to see so much done with love!
That roast beef dish looks wonderful!!

When I think of cold weather comfort food, I always think of fresh baked hot bread with lots of butter. I made some yesterday, it was a perfect cold day for it.
My husbands favotite food is the roast beef, mashed potatoes and gravy. Your pictures make me hungry!
YUM YUM! That bread looks delish! Can you share your recipe? I'm making pinto beans and cornbread tonight and I'm pretty pumped!
Wow! Those mashed potatoes and hot roast beef sandwich looks wonderful! I am interested in your beef soup...do you have a recipe for that? I never thought to put gravy in soup...would love the recipe.
Hugs,
Penny
How great that you are going to be featured? You are so busy how do you have time for all of that activity?

Sorry, but I meant to tell you that I too love the smell and taste of hamemade bread, there is no comfort food like it. Thanks for the tip about the roast, I have some good size pork roasts in the freezer and I believe that is how I will use them. Thanks!! Hugs, again, ~cindy s~

Miss Nancy, have I told you that you are such a sweet person?!
Happy SITS day!
Congrats to your big SITS day!! That post just made me very , very hungry!!
Thanks for coming by my blog. That's a good idea about the roast. I've never thought about that. Congrats on being featured on SITs. I'll go over & check it out...and also on the consulting jobs. I meant to tell you earlier that love the picture of the front of your home. It's so southern. It reminds me of the subdivision I lived in when I was in SC, and it was so classic Southern. I miss it. Homes are more lodge-like (Craftsman) or Florida-ish here.
Dropping by from SITS to congratulate you on your feature. Your homemade bread looks delicious!
I love your blog, it feels so homey and makes me want to redecorate my house.
Congrats on being featured on SITS.

Hi Nancy,
You have been one busy lady,Enjoyed visiting tonight.I need to get my work done before I go on the computer, but it is so hard to do!! Thanks for the roast beef tips.
Blessings,
sue
It is early in the morning, the house is quiet, my mug of coffee is hot, and I am sitting here reading your blog, and so enjoying the experience. The hot roast beef sandwich and whipped potatoes makes me want to skip breakfast today and go right to the dinner hour. The way you photographed the food is amazing!! My grandma always said that butter and sour cream never hurt anything...she added that to most everything that she baked and cooked in the kitchen. Thank you for creating this beautiful blog for all of us in the blogging world.
Hi,I'm a friend of the wonderful Muse and I have just posted a blog about her..please drop by and show her your support and love. Thanks and yes I will be back what a Wonderful blog :)))
