This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Avocados from Mexico for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. My husband loves telling people that his wife plays fantasy football, but he doesn’t. Secretly, I think he enjoys it. While I certainly enjoy watching the game (especially if the Ravens are playing!), I…
Last weekend, my husband and I watched the movie Fat, Sick, and Nearly Dead. How’s that for a Monday morning blog post intro? It’s relevant, though… I promise! You see, we have a few friends who have done the whole “juicing” diet thing. Some have had good results, others have ended up not feeling so…
I would love to say that we have lots of ripe, juicy tomatoes in our garden at the moment, but that’s not the case. It seems that the hot, dry weather we have had lately is working against me. And, of course, the groundhog that has learned to climb the fence isn’t really helping, either….
Sometimes it’s best to keep things simple! I had agreed to make dessert for Mother’s Day, and I had a lot of grandiose ideas of what I would make. I tossed quite a few ideas around in my head, and spent about two hours pouring over cookbooks and blog posts trying to settle on the…
There are just a few more days to submit posts for this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp challenge… This month is all about cooking grains and legumes, so the possibilites are endless! If you’re interested in participating, be sure to check out all of the details! So, since I’ve had grains and legumes on the brain with…
There’s a pretty big football game coming up next weekend. The Super Bowl… You may have heard of it?
So, this week I thought I’d share my quick and easy go-to recipe for guacamole. No game day party is complete without some chips and guac, right?
I’ve mentioned before that my husband and I are big fans of Chipotle Mexican Grill. We especially love their guacamole, so I’ve been on a quest to come up with a recipe that rivals theirs. Every time I make guacamole at home, my hubby determines whether it is “Chipotle good” or not… And, I am happy to announce that this recipe has gained his approval.
In keeping with my 12 Days of Christmas celebration, I thought it would be fun to put together a cookie guide for this week’s Friday Favorites post. Christmas is just over two weeks away, so we’re entering into the prime cookie baking time of the year. If you’re looking for new recipes to try this…
If you’re thinking that I am crazy for posting a burger recipe the day AFTER Labor Day – after the official end of summer and one of the biggest grilling weekends of the year – you may be right… But let’s just say I’m a risk taker like that. Here’s the thing… I think that…
Over the weekend, my mom and I went peach picking at a local orchard. There’s just something very satisfying about picking your own fruit, and it definitely couldn’t be any fresher! I managed to pick 20 pounds of peaches in no time at all, knowing that I wanted to do some canning over the weekend, and…
It’s that time again… Time to showcase everyone’s hard work for this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp challenge! I am so thrilled that so many of you took the time to participate and cook along side of me, especially because I rushed this challenge a bit to get it in by the end of the month. It’s so…
