Back from another long blogging break- I haven’t stopped cooking and have so many recipes I would love to share but life has taken some interesting, yet exciting, turns. I am homeschooling my 4 children this year and that has been quite the adventure to figure things out and adjust to […]
I have been trying to work on this great pumpkin breakfast casserole recipe for a while but it has had to take the back burner to my kids. We have been hit with the worst respiratory virus I have ever had to deal with. All four of my kids have […]
This has been a busy summer- 4 kids home from school, the youngest with a broken leg and now physical therapy to learn to walk again, my garden, housework, baking……. the list goes on and on. Some days I don’t think I even sit until bedtime. I think this has […]
I am not a morning person (at least not until I have had coffee), so it goes to say I am not one to enjoy making complicated breakfasts. Cereal used to be my favorite breakfast to “make” for my family because it only involved pouring cereal and milk 🙂 . […]
Ham in the slow cooker? I never would have imagined- but it was one of those life changing recipes. You will definitely want to bookmark this recipe for Easter! I always loved to cook a nice spiral sliced ham, but it took up my oven at too low of temperature […]

– These little hot ham and cheese sliders would be great at any gathering- a luncheon, brunch or for game day. Not to mention- they appear on our dinner table now and then. You start with sweeter rolls, such as Hawaiian Rolls ( I stopped buying the popular store […]
A while into the process of cutting down on convenience foods, I worked on cutting down on cold cereals. A couple of years ago, cereal is all we ate. I was never one to cook a breakfast. So this was a tough change. Now we eat cereal maybe once […]
This is an amazing dip that can be thrown together in all of ten minutes! Although, I wouldn’t quite classify it as a dip, more of a topping. It is a wonderful combination of salty olive salad, salami and cheese -reminiscent of the classic muffuletta sandwich. I came across […]
These little babies are amazing. Delicious AND you can make them ahead of time and freeze them. Every year, I host a Christmas Eve gathering for my family that includes a variety of appetizers, finger foods, and a big pot of seafood bisque. I have always found this challenging because, […]
