Sloppy Joes:
1 lb lean ground beef, I used sirloin
1/4 c chopped onions
1/4 c finely chopped bell pepper (optional, I like it Jack doesn't)
3/4 c ketchup
1 tsp yellow mustard
3 tsp brown sugar ( you can use the splenda type for this no problem)
1 tsp garlic powder
1/4 c serving size (doesn't sound like much, but it is actually a good amount on a regular hamburger bun.)
Brown ground beef and onions together, add garlic powder and stir well then add rest of the ingredients, mix until well incorporated, turn heat to simmer and simmer half a hour. I am still on old pts so you will have to run it through your pts
So like I told my knitting friends, when life hands you lemons, make lemonade, my red and white hat was my lemons and this hat is my lemonade!
I tried to get the hat dark enough so you could see the pattern, but white just does not photograph well. It is called Angel Wings Beanie because the pattern looks like little wingsI will talk to you all tomorrow morning. I am going to knit on my lace sweater for a bit then head to bed.
If you are musically inclined, part of us are playing triplet notes while the rest play eighth notes, some measures are 4 beats, some are 5, and a few are 6. I don't think we've had every one at every practice yet. 
I wish I could give you polyfil since I have LOTS! I would forget to take mine on vacation so I could work on my Christmas sock, so would just buy more. 
I need to make a grocery list and go tomorrow.
The candle holder idea sounds like it will really be attractive. I was more organized when the kids were home, that's for sure. Things have accumulated and spread out. Little by little I am trying to get rid of the excess. 
I don't want the kids to have to wade through this stuff if something would happen to me.
The hat is beautiful! Too bad Maggie couldn't have your other one for Cecil to curl up in.
