Chicken and Dumplings
Well this is shaping up to be a crazy week! I am sure that I am not the only one feeling the same way! There is shopping to be done, lists to be made, trees to buy and a plethora of other things to occupy every minute of our day! But, that doesn’t change the […]
Peach Pie With a Crumbly Brown Sugar Topping
Well, hopefully everyone survived the Thanksgiving turkey-o-thon! We had a great time with our family, and the kids were super excited to eat as much dessert as they could fit in their little bellies. I’m a firm believer in letting the kids have treats on holidays. Sarayah had 3 plates of whipped cream and Aidan […]
The Holy Grail – Upside Down Apple Almond Pie
Harrison Ford is an icon. His performances as Indiana Jones solidified him as such. There’s no arguing with that. His sun-weathered abs and mysterious chin scar, make him an even more delectable treat for the eyes. But, he’s got nothing on my Upside Down Apple Almond pie. From the rich caramel rivulets of gooey goodness, […]
Thanksgiving Zombies
I looked at my calendar today and realized Thanksgiving is next week! Holy cow!!! This month has flown right by me! We are having Thanksgiving with my in-laws and I always enjoy cooking with Lisa and helping out. There is nothing worse than your guests sitting around waiting, with nothing to munch on! Avoid the […]
Chicken and Waffles – Yes, in the Same Meal!

Friday Night Off

It’s a Whine Kind of Day
Well, it has been quite a day and I am beat! But, the kitchen is calling me and soon my husband will be home and the kids will want to eat. What shall we have on this clod day? It’s gonna have to be something fast…it’s 5:15pm and we eat at 6:30pm. I’ll be honest, […]
Cuddle-up Creamy Cannellini Soup
It’s raining. As a matter of fact, it’s been raining since last night. So, in honor of the rain I have decided to share one of my super easy, warm and cozy soup recipes. (sorry, I forgot to get pictures of this one; but my hubby said it looked amazing ;) ~Serves 8-10 people~ Food […]
“Go to the Mattresses”
In honor of our 4th anniversary (yes, you counted right-4 years 2.5 kids :), let’s start with one of my husband’s favorites: Chicken Marsala over Garlic Mashed Potatoes, Sauted Mushrooms and Pan Seared Asparagus. This is an easy, relatively fast and super yummy meal that not only your spouse will love, but your kids will […]
