You know I am a big believer in recipes that use seasoning envelopes, but this Sloppy Joe recipe is one of those that is just better from scratch. Kickin’ Sloppy Joes are just that–the flavor we love with a little added kick. Like just about every other recipe I’ve shared, they’re easy to make. This […]
The Coronavirus Took Me Off of Auto-Pilot. All of a sudden, things that we never gave a second thought, that were always readily available, like toilet paper, became scarce. And that wasn’t all. Meat, produce, canned goods, medicines like Tylenol, etc… all were scarce. Amazon restricted orders to essentials only, with longer than normal ship […]
Chicken Spaghetti is usually cheesy in this house. But every once in a while, we like to lighten it up with a tomato sauce. You can keep it simple, adding just the sauce, tomatoes and seasoning, or pack it full of your favorite produce like green bell peppers, onions, and mushrooms. Fresh chicken works great […]
One-dish recipes are just as great to me as Crock Pot recipes. Just add all of your ingredients, cook, and be done. If you like eating zucchini in the summer months as much as I do, then hang on to this recipe, you’ll love it. I use canned chicken to cut the prep time down, […]
Hoo boy. You’re in for a treat. If you’re a fan of the classic Gooey Butter Cake recipe, you will love how it tastes with sliced peaches. Fresh peaches would be great, but they’re not really in season just yet. So I went with canned peach slices and just sliced them a little thinner. Here’s […]
School is coming to a close and Mother’s Day is next weekend. If you’re looking to make a special gift from your child for a favorite teacher, mom, or other important woman in their lives, an I Love You to Pieces frame and picture is perfect. It’s simple to make. You will need: Hot glue […]
Does anyone else have a themed-menu each week? In the summer months, we do and the kids love it. Taco Tuesday is by far the favorite night, but eating the same taco meal each week can get old. So I find ways to mix it up a little bit. Taco Bites are so much fun […]
Ohmigosh. Gooey Butter Cake. You would think a recipe this easy would be ok, but not awesome. Wrong. The bottom of the cake is dense like a brownie, and the topping with the cream cheese and powdered sugar just melts in your mouth. It looks so plain, but is anything but. This is a great […]
Since we’ve been under a Stay At Home order, we haven’t ventured out much to drive-thrus. Which means no cherry limeades for me from Sonic. The girls and I love these in the spring and summer and luckily, we can make them at home. The recipe is so simple to make. Here’s what you need: […]
The girls took a break from school work to make some DIY Moisturizing Hand Scrub and as you can see in the videos below, we had a lot of fun making it! Every year for Mother’s Day, we make a batch for my mom. She spends so much time maintaining her landscaping (or as she […]
