I hope your weekend was as great as mine. As I mentioned last week, my in-laws did get to come over the weekend. I must say, I have the best father-in-law in the world.

He fixed a plumbing problem associated with my washing machine that had caused me problems for years, and he also fixed a leaky faucet in my bathroom.

Then, here’s the part I’m really excited about showing you. My husband and father-in-law made a special trip to Lowe’s just for me and brought back this….

No, not the food. The freezer! I have been wanting a bigger freezer for a while now because I’m hoping to try Once A Month Cooking soon. Before, I was afraid, between my refrigerator freezer and the small one pictured below, I wouldn’t have enough room for storing that many meals.

See what I mean. There’s quite a bit of difference in size. The other reason I wanted a bigger freezer is for stocking piling. It stinks to find a really good deal on meats and not have enough freezer space to really stock up.

Now, that I’ve shared my exciting weekend with you, I’ll get on to the real topic of the day.

~Here’s what’s cooking this week~

• Tuesday - Creole Jambalaya
• Wednesday - Corned Beef & Cabbage (Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day)
