So, after being gone all last week, this has been catch up on the house week. Mostly laundry actually. Man, who knew that a weeks worth of laundry from 5 people could be so daunting. Yikes!! But I am kind of behind on my cooking and baking as well since I’ve been gone and cleaning. […]
Halloween Cake Pops
Here is a quick post for today. I’ve had this in my archives for a couple of weeks now and need to just finally post it already. Not that I didn’t think this recipe was yummy. Your standard cake pops, but with cute decorations. I love cake pops though. I think they are genius with […]
Chicken Parmesan Skillet Pot Pie
I have been eye-balling this recipe for about 2 weeks now, and every time I look at it my mouth starts to water something fierce. I even made my way to Walmart to fetch a cast iron pan just for this recipe. Although, if you don’t have one, you can also just use a 9 […]
Garlic-Herb Braid
Ugh, I will be so ready when this week is over and things can slow down {specifically Halloween}!! It’s been like one Halloween party after another. Plus my kids switched schools this week. Plus we are selling my truck and getting a new vehicle. So the stress of it all has got me feeling tired […]

Old-Fashioned Lemon Bread
I’m back!! Last week I came down with a little stomach bug, so I took a little time off from cooking. Nothing really sounds good when your tummy feels yucky, but now I’m back, and I wanted to make something a little refreshing after my week. This isn’t really a “fall” food, but I love […]
Dulce de Leche Alfajores
I know everyone is probably ready for a few hardy meals, but yesterday was make up my menu and grocery shopping day. So it didn’t give me a whole lot of time for cooking, so I pulled this yummy recipe out of my archives. A while back a friend of mine visited… actually I’ve totally […]
Baked Potato Soup
Now that it’s getting cold outside one of my favorite things to have is warm soup. Probably because I’m freezing cold already, and really I live in Arizona. So our low is like 60 degrees right now, but I’m a dessert rat, so to me this is cold. All you people that live where it […]
Oriental Chicken Salad
Out of all the places there is to go out to eat Applebees is probably not my restaurant of choice. Out of everything on that menu, I’ve had 2 or 3 things that I actually like. But this is one of them. They have the most amazing Oriental Chicken Salad ever!! Which this is a […]
Orange Cream Stars
So I am completely crazy!! Somehow I got myself signed up for a half marathon and The Ragnar for February and April. To tell you the truth I am super excited about it, but just a little nerves. The Ragnar race is February 24th, so it will be my first race out of the two. […]
