I'm writing you from a local library cybercafe..I've reported to the police and after writing down some statements that's the last i had from them.i contacted the consulate and all i keep hearing is they will get back to me. i need your help ..I need you to help me out with a loan to settle my bills here so we can get back home, our return flight leaves soon. I'll refund the money as soon as i get back. All i need is $1,650 ..Let me know if you can get me the money then I tell you how to get it to me.<br> <br> I'm freaked out at the moment<br><br><div>Blessings, <br>Theresa <br></div></td></tr></table>Miss RJhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03596197940166592737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-636643851230756302.post-20837066747458656342010-01-06T08:00:00.000-08:002010-01-06T08:00:06.237-08:00BreakDear Readers,<br /><br />I thought that I would let you know that I will be taking a break from my blog for about a week or so!

We bought some Libby's Pumpkin, and there was a recipe on the can for a Pumpkin Roll, well since we are a big family pumpkin rolls are a bit to much "to do" so I simply altered the recipe to make it different as well as to fit our family!<br /><br /><em>(Note: This recipe is very easy, and can easily be reduced to fit your family. Although <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">tripling</span> is not advised!)</em><br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">Pumpkin</span> Bread<br /><br />1 1/2 cups of white flour<br />1 tsp. baking powder<br />1 tsp. baking soda<br />1/2 tsp. salt<br />1 tsp cloves<br />1 tsp. <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Cinnamon</span><br />2 cup cane sugar (or white, I used 1 cup cane, and 1 cup brown)<br />6 eggs<br />2 cups of canned pumpkin (or your own pumpkin puree)<br /><br />Preheat Oven to 375 degrees F. Mix eggs and sugar in a bowl. Add pumpkin. Beat. Then in another bowl sift the dry <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">ingredients</span> together. Add to pumpkin mixture. Spread into large pan. Bake for 20-25 minutes. Let cool. if desired top with cream-cheese frosting. Enjoy!<br /><br />Cream Cheese Frosting:<br /><br />1 16oz. package of cream cheese<br />2-3 TBSP of whole or 2% milk.<br />1 TBSP vanilla<br />4 1/2 cups of icing sugar<br /><br />Beat till smooth and creamy. Double the sugar, milk, and vanilla, and mix some more to make for 2 sheet cakes.<br /><br />Enjoy!<br />~R.J.Miss RJhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03596197940166592737noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-636643851230756302.post-519882027820009442009-11-05T06:49:00.000-08:002009-11-05T06:49:00.131-08:00Pictures!So now like I promised you, the pictures of the finished applesauce!

We were at a loss at what to do with them all, but my mom said, we will make apple sauce. It was very fun! We got a late start on it last night about 3, and by the time all of the apples we were going to use for applesauce were peeled, cut, cooked, and pureed, we still had to seal them. That took us till 9:30 PM, it was a long day but a fun one! We put up 22 jars of applesauce! We are going to make apple jelly too so hopefully, I will have some pictures/ posts of that!<br /><br />Sorry, no pictures, unfortunately................... maybe in a different post! I apologize to you all, but, it takes a while to upload pictures, and our laptop does not download pictures.<br /><br />Enjoy your day, and your fall!<br />Blessings,<br />R.J.Miss RJhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03596197940166592737noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-636643851230756302.post-1995919229039487522009-10-07T05:13:00.000-07:002010-01-17T18:30:49.295-08:00Recipe!Here is a delicious recipe!
