about my blog

The Newest Addition started with how, in my opinion, I was the newest addition to everything. I was the newest at my job, the most recent addition to the Tussing family, my car was newer, you get the idea.

Of course I'm not even at my job anymore, my car isn't the newest, and we've had two babies. As you can see, Newest Addition is ever changing.

Now this blog documents all the fun things that go on in our lovely little Tussing home.

You'll get to see all the food we make-

Work with us on all of our weekend projects-

And of course the occasional family outtings-

This blog is just my way of keeping touch and letting others know of the fun, not so fun, and sometimes just plain goofy things that go on. If you ever have any questions never hesitate to comment or email me!

2 Year Anniversary

May 15th is our anniversary. For out two year anniversary we went to the Grand Canyon. It really couldn't have been greater. Here are some of the pictures from this past weekend. This was our cabin and the view from our window We learned how to lasso and saw tadpoles Relaxed and enjoyed the view I do have some travel tips for you. If a place if called "Out of this World", you really should stop and try their food. Eat a burger, take a picture, order a cake (try to be better than me and snap a picture before you scarf it down), also, order a pizza to take back to your room. It'll be worth it. Trust me.

Pake

When did life change so much? One kid become two? Stay at mom become stay at mom and worker? Errands become errands and more errands because they are never finished? Seven become seven and eleven? Wait... I may have gotten a little off track with that last one. Life is always so crazy it seems that one you finally get used to it, something changes. That's what pake is. Something you're not used to but it can totally work. A pake: half pie, half cake. Don't worry, we're not talking apple pie with frosting. It's a pie crust with red velvet cake and cream cheese frosting. Now this is a learning lesson. The original recipe I used is from  Lifetime . It was originally made on a show called "Drop Dead Diva". Total chic show but it was fun. The only thing it that whatever world they cook in, cakes rise several inches. Here in the normal world? Not so much. I've modified the recipe slightly below. Ingredients: Pie Crust - Either make your own or ...

Cookies for Two

A lot of you are gearing up for Christmas baking. Personally? I'm not so sure I'm going to do it. Some of you may think that's absurd but I'm thinking it just might be practical this year. I work remotely from home, no workers to give cookies to. No holiday party at work this year, no platter of baked goods needed. I only know a couple neighbors and I actually don't know their names. We just smile and say hi and wave. Plus, of the family that's coming over, only a few of them eat sweets. But lets be honest, can a 31 week pregnant lady go an entire holiday season without treats? No! What this means is that I will be trying lots of "Two Person" recipes. I can't promise you that I won't eat both servings but I can promise it's good news for you! Here is our first recipe: Cookie in a Cup: Makes one mug 1/4 cup flour 1 tbl butter 1 tbl sugar 1 tbl brown sugar 1 egg yolk (if you like egg white omelets you could save the white) 2 ...
