Texas Cowboy Stew

I found this recipe on Pinterest.  Because I loved it so much I want to share it with all of you.

The Original site is linked to the cute logo below.

 Such an Easy Recipe.  Follow steps below for a delicious mouth watering Meal.

Step # 1 - Using a Skillet Sautee' your chopped up onions over medium heat.

Step #2 - Add ground beef and cook until there is no pink left.

Step #3 - Add your cut up sausage

In a crock pot or dutch 

• Step 3. Pour in tomatoes, pinto beans, corn, potatoes, diced tomatoes with chiles and veggies
• Step 4. Mix everything until well combined, add spices

• Step 5. Add water, bring to a boil, and simmer for one hour.

WHAT CAN I ADD TO COWBOY STEW FOR FLAVOR?

In this recipe, spices make all the difference. Don’t hesitate to add more spices if you want a bit more kick.

A pinch of cinnamon, a dash of paprika as well as cumin and chili powder can render a very delicious stew.

I usually add chopped jalapenos to make it a bit spicier. Sometimes I even add cheese on top, throw it in the oven, and broil it until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

WHAT TO SERVE WITH COWBOY STEW?

To add a bit of freshness to this dish, I generally serve it with a simple mixed greens salad or coleslaw and a big slice of sourdough bread.

PRO TIPS FOR COWBOY STEW;

1. This recipe is so easy, you really don’t have to be a pro to make it. But if you

1. want to make it even more special,
2. Place cooked stew on a casserole dish, put cheese on top, and bake until bubbly
3. After cooking the ground beef and adding the kielbasa, cook it for a couple more minutes and drain the excess fat from the meat and the sausage.
4. Add chopped jalapenos for an added kick, If you want to make it a bit less “soupy” add one cup of less water and cook until desired consistency.

What are Charms and DooDads?

 Don't you just love them?

For some reason I feel like I just wrote about them recently.  Do you do that? Do something and forget you wrote or spoke to someone about that very subject then repeat it over and over.  That is called getting old.  Yikes, never thought I would do that.  But low and behold I now do.  Not bad yet.  What was I talking about?   Just kidding.  

Charms and DooDads.

What is a charm?

Well you can charm someone to get them to like you.  But that is not the one I am talking about.

Here are some charms.   Use them to decorate with, or put on earrings, necklaces, whatever.

Ok now what is a Doo Dad.

Well it is just about anything.  A trivial ornament or gadget that you can't quite thing of the name for it.   Like the front of a button, broken ear ring, cute thing. You can make really cool things out of them. I mean just look at the pics below.

Some look like they are from earrings.  I mean if I have 2 of them the buyer might want to make earrings.  So far I just play around with them, coming up with ways they might be used.  I have way to many crafts in my head of what I want to make.  Here are some more ideas.

So much fun.  Have you made something with a DooDad like about?  Please share it with me.  If you don't mind I would love to share it with others.  

Why did I make this post?  Well to direct you to my Website (Creative Crafts and Supplyz and to explain to a few of you what a DooDad is and what you can do with them.

Want to see Charms to buy?

Dangles

 Dangles 

What are They you ask?

Well they are pretty little 

baubles/creations attached with a

Lobster claw or a Swivel Hook.

Or just a plain hook you find on just about anything.

 your Rear View Mirror and more

Making it easy to attach to anything you want them too.

HELP Me Make a Subscription Box

 Ok if you didn't read my other article about Subscription box please stop and go read it first.

Click here or scroll down.

Subscription Boxes, Same as Mystery Boxes

Then come back here please.

Ok I have fun buying estate sale jewelry.  I buy and buy and buy and buy.  Well you get the point.  lol  But I buy through a lady that buys it first then sells it in sort of surprise bags.  I have so much fun as she puts in other items too.  Such as key chains, charms, even got a tiny set of NEW ear buds once.  So I just have so much fun.  But that means I get way to much jewelry.   So my craft room is getting taken over.  

Some have got to go

I want to do something fun with them.  I can list them places like some are hand made or look hand made so I could put them on Etsy.  But that is not fun.  I want to make a subscription box.  I found I anyone can make one on Cratejoy.com but I can't understand the directions.  I need someone to walk me through step by step.   I can also make them on Etsy but I'm not sure if anyone buys them on there.

Next I want to put other fun things in with them.  I've kind of gotten stuck.  I don't want to make these that expensive but don't want to go in the hole with them either.  I have tiny nail polish bottles that are empty.  I figured I could buy nail polish and split the bottle into 3 or 4 little ones.  I can ad those.  But what else?  Fun pencils. 

Maybe hand made book marks.

BUT where do I post them??  And how do I get them seen and found??  

I also am thinking about doing some kids ones that are not an arm an leg.  Not jewelry.  lol  I just wanted one for my granddaughter but they are to expensive.  So I'm sure others are finding the same thing.

If you have any ideas please comment.  Hopefully no one else takes my idea.

Subscription Boxes same as Surprise Box or Mystery Box

 Have you ever gotten a Subscription Box?  Have you ever heard about them?  Do you know what a Mystery Box?  Well they are all pretty much the same thing.  

They are SOOOOO Much fun.  It is like getting a gift each month.  

I finally broke down and signed up for a Succulent Box.  Oh wait I did Air Plant first.  Air Plant you don't plant in dirt.  You plant it in anything you want.  Even a toy.  lol  

WHY?  Well it doesn't require to be watered.  You just put them in a glass, cup or some kind of container filled with water once a week.  Let them soak about an hour, pull them out shake them off and put them back where you had them.  Well I started killing them.  I can't water them when i water other plants.  So I would forget about them.  

SOOOO I switched over to succulents.  I went to Cratejoy.com you have all kinds of choices.  I chose to only get 1 per month.

click on pic to take you to the link.

oh they send you directions on cute little business card size cards that are in color and glazed over.  It not only tells you how to take care of them, it tells what kind of plant they have sent to you.

The back of each one tells how to take care of them.

We have since signed up for other boxes. I like the Stickii club

My daughter gets a Nail Box

Her box is through another company to help support a foreign group of ladies supporting there families or something like that. 

and 

we got a candy box for my son. 

He is 30 and has autism.  He loves getting a box each month.

He did cancel his and tried another which I can't remember name but we still get it and he talked us into signing but up for the one above also.  He shares with us doubles.  lol

Try them out they are awesome.  You can find just about every kind of subscription.  And it is so much fun to get mail each month that is NOT bills.
