In my thankful post I mentioned having a job I love 95% of the time. What I didn't say was I love having great coworkers. We are a small group- our director, 2 program managers, and 2 assistants. In our grant driven world this time of year can be challenging, so the unexpected deadline we received 9 days ago was a lot to manage. We hit our goal a few hours to spare yesterday.
Now the help- holiday party with friends. The host is making chili and cornbread. She has also baked a ridiculous amount of cookies. Everyone else is supposed bring something but I have no clue. Usually I would have spent the past few evening looking for recipes, but that work thing got in the way. So does anyone have any great recipes that are not super hard?

Sara, I love your blog and read it all the time, but I don't think I've ever commented. I'll have to do so more often!
But for now, a quick recipe for fruit salad. Drain the juice of a 20 (ish) oz. can of pineapple chunks into a bowl (reserving pineapple). Add a small box of vanilla instant pudding, and 2 Tbsp. Tang (that orange drink mix), whisk until smooth. Then, stir in the pineapple chunks, a can of drained mandarin oranges, and a jar of drained maraschino cherries. You can also add bananas, but those turn brown and mushy quickly.
I try not to use so many canned items, or ones with preservatives, but sometimes you just have to have recipes like this to fall back on! And this is a yummy one!
