Hubby is on nights

Seeing as we don't have any kids yet... I have decided that its no skin off my back to go on the same schedule that my hubby is working. So when he is on nights, I have been staying up for a good part of the night... and when he sleeps during the day, I snuggle in with him.

Dean worked last night and normally I would have stayed up with him, but seeing as it was Saturday night, and mtg the next morning was 1.5 hours away, I slept! However, I hadn't been feeling good... felt a little nauseated and feverish.... don't get any ideas... no babies here! So I ended up staying home from mtg... I must have been fighting something because I ended up sleeping for approx 17 hours! ... and now... I am wide awake. Which is fine because Hubby is on his last night shift.

So tonight, this is what is keeping me going.... Decaf Coffee from the Keurig...




and the smell of Apple Leather cooking in the oven..... YUM!!!!


This is the best thing ever. So simple to do.

Need one jar of applesauce, whatever kind you choose. I normally use unsweetened applesauce and add cinnamon to it. The odd time I have added some splenda to it, or brown sugar.

You will also need one cookie sheet, and line it with Saran Wrap!!!

Once you have mixed in the cinnamon into the applesauce, pour it onto the saran... and shake the pan until the applesauce is level!

Then stick it in the oven for 8 hours at 170!!!! I usually do this over night so my oven isn't tied up during the day!
