While I’m on vacation this week, I thought I’d share a post I wrote a couple of years ago. I know many of you are gearing up for Vacation Bible School. This post gives the details on shop...
As far as I’m concerned, coffee ice cream with hot fudge is the best dessert in the world. It’s my favorite of favorites. So when I was asked to try Häagen-Dazs® and I got to choose my ow...
I’m so sorry to put strawberries and garlic together. That does not sound good! But due to all the site problems I had last week, this post missed schedule and I wanted to share it. And I hadn&...
Last week, I told you I had two new pie recipes for you. Both have a chocolate graham cracker crust. And both are fantastic, especially for summer. This Peanut Butter Fluff Pie is easy to make and th...
(I’ll be back next Monday with a new free menu + grocery list!) Summer is here and so are vacations! We’re taking off for Disney World this week, so I thought I’d share 7 of my favo...
In all the years that we’ve grown tomatoes, we’ve had great luck all of one time. Yep. Just one year of fantastic success. But before you write me off as someone who doesn’t know wh...
I have two fantastic no-bake pie recipes coming up for you next week, and since both have chocolate graham cracker crust I thought I’d share the how-to. You are going to love both of the pie re...
I love a good short cut. When it comes to garlic, I’ve learned that the best short cut is to get a good garlic press instead of using jarred garlic. Fresh garlic can be a pain in the patootie i...
You may have noticed over the last few days that my site has been slooooooow. I couldn’t even get it to load for me in order to write a post or approve a comment. So frustrating. But I’ve...
It’s not like patting out my own hamburger patties is hard, but sometimes I like the convenience of the pre-made kind. The only problem with this is the inability to add flavors inside the patt...
This is my family on vacation a couple of years ago. I’m where I prefer to be – behind the camera! Vacationing together is something we love to do. Many of our trips include extended fami...
Those are the first of the strawberries from the patch in the backyard. If I don’t get some bird netting, they may be the last too. Anyone else having trouble with the birds eating the berries?...
Part of my family is heading to Disney World in a couple weeks. Because I’m in the group going, I can’t seem to stay away from the Disney stuff. That means I’ve been avidly reading ...
There’s a lot to love with this menu. Two slow cooker meals, plus a meal to stock your freezer (the 50s Prime Time Meatloaf will make 2 loaves). There’s a 15 minute meal and one our famil...
This has been an eventful week. First, we sent our daughter off to China. Thank you so much for all of your comments. I loved hearing about others who have kids overseas and those who have gone overs...
I love using my slow cooker in the summer. We’ve even been known to use it on vacation. In fact, I had a dream a few years ago that we were in Magic Kingdom in Disney World and I was pushing a ...
99.9% of all the posts on my site are about food. I hope you’ll forgive me for taking this post to write about family instead. My oldest daughter boarded a plane for China this morning. This is...
Apologies for the photo of the raw ground beef. It’s possible that the only thing worse is a photo of raw chicken legs. What it lacks in beauty, it makes up for in versatility and convenience. ...
Have you ever made a recipe that you just weren’t sure about? Even while I was baking this, I didn’t know if it would be good or not. I had the idea to change up the recipe for Tuxedo Bar...
This week, I’ve got a vegetarian menu for you. If your family is full of meat lovers, you can still use this. Just add in the meat you want to go with the meals. A few more notes: I have includ...
Tomorrow is Cinco de Mayo, which is a great reason to eat Mexican (or Mexican inspired) food. In case you’re looking for ideas, here’s a post I wrote last year that has links to 43 Enchil...
You know how I love a 15 minute meal. Sometimes that’s all I have to pull dinner together. Such was the case the night I made this, but the inspiration for the dish had come a few months before...
In my opinion, the absolute best way to eat honey is on a hot biscuit that’s been slathered with butter and so much honey that it drips down your hand as you try to eat it. Second best way, pea...
I have heard about the beans for years. Yes, years! And I can’t believe I had never tried them. I first heard about them on the Sonlight forums, where they were made famous by Bethany of For th...
I hope you had a great weekend. We had a busy weekend of birthday parties, camping trips, church dinners… I also did a lot of cooking on Saturday and I’ve got some great recipes to share ...
So many delicious recipes were linked up for Ingredient Spotlight this week! I’m going to need to start buying more bananas so I can try them. Here are a few recipes that caught my eye: If you&...
I have had a blast sharing Ingredient Spotlight with you and these last few months have been really fun! It never fails that I learn new ways to use ingredients that I keep in the pantry and fridge. ...
3 ingredients and a slow cooker. This couldn’t be simpler to throw together. And it’s really good too! I’m not sure why I thought to mix Teriyaki and BBQ sauces, but the combination...
I eat a banana nearly every day as a snack. They’re the perfect portable food, because they come in their own container. They’re also wonderful to bake with and for fruit salads and such....
The credit for this recipe goes entirely to my sister. She knows how to kick things up a notch or three. This variation on Hashbrown Casserole includes peppers, bacon, extra sour cream and french fri...
