Ooey- Gooey Homemade Mac & Cheese

What a pretty, snowy weekend we're having here. Travis and I have been lazy all day today. We ran a few errands in town, played on the Wii, and laid on the couch reading and drinking hot tea. Is there a better way to spend a snowy Saturday?

We ran to the farm & ranch store in town, to budget how much new stuff we will need when we buy chickens. Only around another month until it is time to go pick up the little peepers! We are going get going on the coop pretty soon. We already have the wood, chicken wire and the plan so now we just have to find some motivation.

In our contiunal quest to avoid spending money at the grocery store, last night I made home-made Mac and Cheese. Kind of made up the recipe, here it is:

4 cups cooked pasta
1 tsp butter
1/4 c milk or 1/2&1/2
1/4 c cottage cheese
2 TBSP sour cream
4 1/2 c Montery Jack Cheese (honestly, I think it would be better w/Sharp Chedder but I didn't have any)
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 slice American cheese

Stir togeather over med heat until warm and and super cheesy. Prepare to feel five years old again & enjoy!
