We stopped at the commissary this weekend on an unplanned trip. They had bags of the clementine oranges for $1.99 v. the usual price of $4-5 a bag! I picked up three. Now, what to do with them?? I found a smoothie recipe that uses fresh oranges (one of the few that did), so I will make that. I will peel and freeze some of the segments for other smoothies. The kids have eaten half a bag already (the little oranges are a rare treat). Maybe some muffins?
Last week, SoldierBoy got a promotion at work. We weren’t able to celebrate Thursday because he had a work commitment, Saturday we had date night and he’s gone all this week. So we are looking forward to celebrating on Saturday bacon-wrapped pork medallions. I can’t wait to try this recipe!

Great menu ideas. Everything sounds so yummy. Do you have a recipe for the maple oat scones? New to your blog and enjoying my visit here.
Thanks for stopping by, Gen!
I should have included the link to the scones, I’ll update it now. http://www.food.com/recipe/maple-oat-nut-scones-starbucks-157241
I am going to blog this recipe along with freezer instructions later this week, too.
Sounds wonderful! Corn yeast rolls would have to be wonderful!!!
Thank you, for your family’s service. God bless!
Your profile cracks me up! “Displaced”- my 3 oldest sons are military bound (one’s signed for Navy, one wants Army next year, the other wants Marines in a couple of years) and all of the branches they’ve spoken with (except the Marines) promise them they can pick where they go
