Sausage & Tortellini Soup In the Crock Pot

I love a good hearty soup in the winter but we were getting kind of sick of all the same old soup recipes we've made over and over.  I was looking for something different when I saw a pin for sausage & tortellini soup.  We made it once and enjoyed it so much we made it again just a few weeks later!



It was so nice and easy too; I just put everything into the crock pot and then added in the final two ingredients just 30 minutes before serving.

 Ingredients:

3 sausage links; browned and sliced
1 cup carrots; sliced thin
1 4 ounce can sliced mushrooms
1 clove minced garlic
1 Tablespoon minced onion
2 containers (8 cups) chicken broth
1/3 cup cream of mushroom soup mix (or 1 can cream of mushroom soup)
2 cups 1/2 & 1/2
1-2 cups frozen, chopped spinach
1 package cheese tortellini.

In a large crock pot combine sliced sausage, carrots, mushrooms, garlic, onion, chicken broth, and cream of mushrooms soup.  Stir well to combine cream of mushroom soup with the broth and then let sit on low until 30 minutes before to serve.

Add in 1/2 and 1/2 and tortellini; cooking until tortellini is cooked through and tender.  Serve hot.

Favorite TV Shows Growing Up in the 80's and early 90's

Do you remember the TGIF lineups on Friday nights? I can remember planning sleepovers and time with friends around TV Show lineups of our favorite shows... or else trying to set the VCR to record our favorite shows if we weren't going to be home. And through the years I had SO MANY favorites! Growing pains aired in 1985 which put me around age 8 and it stayed on the air until I was 15 or so; I'm pretty sure most people in my age group watched mostly for Kirk Cameron and all his antics.  I still have a soft spot for family sit-coms!  The Facts of Life aired when I was just 2  and stayed on the air until I was 11 so I'm sure the episodes I remember so fondly were either some of the later ones and then reruns shown later on when I was old enough to watch from the beginning. I think everyone would have loved an Edna Garret in their lives.   Benson another sitcom that began airing when I was just 2 and was done by the time I was 9 (another one I must have watched mainly through

Dollar Store Candy Cane Wreath

Today I am linking up with some fellow bloggers for a Dollar Store craft challenge.  I don't often participate in these challenges since I try to stay away from our local Dollar Stores; I find they can be quite dangerous for me!  I knew this was the perfect time to find some inexpensive holiday decorations though and I just LOVE how my wreath turned out!  I hope you stop by and see what the other hosts are sharing. Meet this month's co-hosts! Across the Blvd | Purple Hues & Me This Autoimmune Life | Our Unschooling Journey Domestic Deadline | Sew Crafty Crochet Stone Cottage Adventures | Sum of Their Stories | Two Chicks & a Mom I bought the candy cane wreath base and a few rolls of mesh (not knowing how many I'd need I bought waaay to many; I only ended up using one white roll and one red roll. Using some chenille stems I already had on hand I attached the mesh to the wreath base trying to alternate the white

Things That Make Me Laugh

I loved the challenge of this week's list for our 26 lists link up.  I don't know about you but I really need to laugh more lately.  It's such a great stress reliever. 1.  Books-- I love a good funny book that makes me laugh out loud.  I haven't read one in a while but if you have any recommendations I'm all ears.  The last book I can remember making me laugh was the Un-Honeymooners. 2  The boys being silly. 3.  Watching shows like America's Funniest Videos or Family Feud. 4. My husband.  Most people don't realize it but he's actually pretty funny and often makes me laugh. 5.  Whenever my sisters/ family get together and we get to reminiscing (particularly if my Aunt Elaine is around) we end up laughing so hard at all the old family stories that we are all in tears by the end of the night.  It's fabulous. 6. Movies like Mom's Night Out, Christmas Vacation, and Grown Ups make me laugh out loud. 7.  When my boys were youn
