Happy Halloween!

Happy Halloween! Addy had a blast today! We trick or treating at Grandma Kerzner's where we took a bunch of photos in their backyard of Addy enjoying the leaves! Then we went to Lauren and Tom's to say hi! After the Rice's back to our house, ate dinner then went to a few homes in our neighborhood!

Fall Decorating

We love the fall in the Ardigo home! We love to decorate (labor day) for the fall, participate in fallish activities (wineries, pumpkin patch, etc.) and we love fall food (anything pumpkin inspired)! Krysta's favorite decoration is the glittered pumpkin inspired by Martha Stewart. Ryan is not a huge fan of the glittered pumpkin because the glitter gets all over the house!

A great recipe for a cool fall evening... My Grandma's Spinach Lasagna! We made a tray last night and leftovers are even better!

1 package (10 oz) frozen chopped spinach
1 tsp. salt
3/4 tsp. oregano
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 Jar (32 oz) spaghetti sauce
1/2 package Lasagna noodles (8oz) uncooked
1 cup water
Directions
Thaw and drain spinach. In large bowl, mix cottage cheese, 1 cup mozzarella, the egg, spinach, salt, oregano and pepper. In greased (Pam is a healthier alternative) 13x9x2 bakin dish, layer 1/2 cup sauce, 1/3 cup noodles and half the cheese mixture. Repeat. Top with remaining noodles then remaining sauce. Sprinkle with remaining mozzarella. Pour 1 cup water around the edges of the baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour and 15 minutes.
