Jean Apron Tutorial-Fun and Frugal! You can't beat that with a stick!!

I came across this way cute idea at Taffy Talk! I thought, hey I have a million billion (ok maybe only 5 or 10 but a million billion sounds so much better right?) pairs of jeans laying around waiting to be turned into something wonderful and/or fun so this made perfect sense for me. Especially since I am obsessed  with aprons currently! Go check out her tutorial here!!  I had a blast making this little number although I should have thought better of using a stretch denim. (it got a little misshaped along the hem) I plan on making more! Thank you Taffy Talk!! You ROCK!!

My Funeral Potatoes

   This recipe is for a classic Funeral Potatoes, or Cheesy potatoes Casserole, that uses fresh potatoes. (I haven't had as much luck with frozen potatoes with this one) It's a comforting and hearty dish that's perfect for gatherings or potlucks. It is addapted from my moms kitchen and I love it! Sometimes I top it with a crumb crust and sometimes its is just topped with cheese but it is delish both ways!
