Crock Pot Ribs

Crock Pot Ribs:

•  Spice ribs (salt, pepper, and any other spices you like)
• 1 onion
• 1 bottle of your favorite barbecue sauce 

Spice your ribs and place them under the broiler for around 15 minuets. Drian the excess fat.

Slice your onion and place in crock pot. Slice your ribs so they fit in the crock pot. Cover with barbecue sauce.

Cook 9-10 hours on low or 4-5 on high.

I get this all ready the night before, so when I get up the next day all I have to do is plug it in and set it on low and go to work. Come home from work and the main dish of dinner is done!

Coxes Got To Eat

I am trying to do better at planning a menu fore each week.


This way we know what to buy at the grocery store and to make it easier on us since we both work.


Monday- Taco salad (made with ground turkey)
Tuesday- Crock Pot ribs- nothing better than coming home and having the main course done
Wednesday- BBQ Chicken- Mr. C sure can grill
Thursday- Spaghetti with turkey meat
Friday- Pork Tenderloin on the grill.


I can not wait. 

Happy 4th of July!

Hope everyone has a safe and happy day!

Happy Nurses Day

Today is national Nurses Day!

My husband got me flowers for nurses day.

One girl I work with got me coffee and a breakfast sandwich

The doctor I work for gave me a real sweet card with a gift card, and bought my lunch!

Another lady I work with gave me a real nice pen and post-it set.

Today was a great day! I love my job. It's so rewarding.

Earth Day 2010

HAPPY EARTH DAY

"It's time to mother earth"

(from a bumper sticker on my bffs car)

What do you do to help to mother earth?

1. Pur water pitcher. So we don't waste money on bottles and throw away plastics.

2. Recycle, reduce, reuse. We recycle all of our cans and newspapers. 

3. Compact fluorescent bulbs. Theses bulbs are in every place except our kitchen.

According to Energy Star, this bulb will save you about 30 dollars over its lifetime and pay for itself in about 6 months. Uses 75% less energy and last 10 times longer than an incandescent bulb.

4. Reusable grocery bags. I try to keep them in my car so they are always on hand.

5. Vegetable garden. We have a garden at Cody's parents house.

It feels so good to grow your own food.

“In order to be irreplaceable one must always be different.”-Coco Chanel quote

Saturday was my brothers senior prom. This made me feel so old! I remember when he went for his first day of Kindergarten. Now senior prom. Yikes.

Yes those are combat boots with her prom dress and her socks are argyle. And yes she rocked it!

My brother!

LOVE IT

 She owned the fact that yes it's prom, yes I'm in a white dress, and yes I wear combat boots!

Smart girl, at least her feet did not hurt at prom or her toes get stepped on!

She inspired me to have more confidence in my self.
