This has been the longest week. I have had to stare at images of this recipe without constantly gorging myself for days. I cannot express how relieved I am to finally have this recipe posted for you so I can catch a break and go stare at […]
I love eggnog, but I can’t drink too much of it. It’s just not the holidays until I’ve had a glass of eggnog! This was taken from the internet last year, but not sure where. But it’s definitely not our original.
This salad is everything I love about Cobb salad, but much lighter. If I’m going to eat salad for dinner it better actually be healthy, right? Instead of adding smoky bacon, I coated the chicken in smoked paprika before sauteing. It makes the salad so […]
I figured out the solution to my problem–buy the single stuffed oreos rather than the double stuffed ones. They tend to last a bit longer. But I still had to make this one quick before Scott caught on to my trickery. Same thing with the […]

Someone asked recently if anyone had a pumpkin pie recipe that didn’t call for corn syrup because she was having trouble finding one. What?! Pumpkin pie with corn syrup?! No thank you. Actually, I’m sure it would be tasty, but really? My mom has been […]

If you have never tried Acorn Squash…you must! It’s actually my favorite squash out of the whole squash family. It’s sweet but not too sweet and almost buttery after roasted. So pair this with some Thanksgiving like stuffing. OMG, comfort food like no other. All […]
