There’s a pretty big football game this weekend. Regardless of your position on the game, you probably are planning some fun snacks to much on while you watch the game (or just the commercials). So, for this week’s Friday Favorites, I thought I’d share the game day appropriate recipes that caught my eye this week……
Can you believe October is right around the corner? I’m not entirely sure where September went, but I am ready for October. It happens to be my favorite month of the year (and not just because I have a birthday in October)! All of my favorite foods are readily available (like apples and pumpkins), and it is…
Black plates on a wedding registry… Who does that?! Well, you’re reading her blog… And, you’ve probably seen said plates in many photos over the past few years! Yes, my wedding registry included black dishes… Plates, bowls, a creamer set, and even a few platters. I definitely got a few raised eyebrows and lots of questions as the…
Ever since I had my first taste of garlic scape pesto last summer, I have been obsessed. I couldn’t wait for garlic scape season to roll around so that I could make more pesto. So, as soon as I found a stand at the farmer’s market that had bunches of garlic scapes, I stocked up…
Today I am so lucky to have Amber from Bluebonnets & Brownies here to share a recipe for Weeknight Sausage Pasta with all of you! It’s really a good thing for everyone… If I was writing, you’d probably be reading all about hospital food… And, no one wants that! I met Amber at the Big…
My husband and I really are perfect for each other… Most of you probably don’t know us personally, so you’ll just have to take my word for it. In many ways, we are quite different. Consider a shopping trip to Target. I will wander through the whole store, smelling candles, comparing nail polish colors, and checking out…
If you’re much like me, you’ve probably rushed around to finish all of your shopping and get the gifts wrapped so that you have next week to focus on food. Granted, I do make a lot of homemade gifts, so I don’t have ALL of my gifts done. But, I would much rather spend the week before Christmas in my kitchen listening to Christmas music while I cook and bake. It sure beats pushing your way through the super-crowded stores looking for last minute gifts! I suppose that it’s also a good time to clean the house if you have guests coming, but we won’t talk much about that.
Since I spent last week introducing you to more cookies than you could ever possibly bake during one holiday season (that’s a challenge… I dare you!), I thought it would good to focus this week’s Friday Favorites post on holiday entertaning! After all, we can’t live on cookies alone (or can we?).
I am happy to announce that I have not let my RSS reader get out of control again this week. In fact, for about 5 minutes during the middle of the week I achieved the ultimate RSS reader goal – ZERO unread items. It was very short-lived, but I enjoyed it while it lasted. So,…
I had a 6 pound can of peeled whole tomatoes in my pantry. Don’t ask questions… It’s a long story that involves a trip to a price club store and lots of exclamations like “Wow, that’s a huge can of tuna!” or “Check out the size of that bag of chips!” Long story short, the 6…
I can’t believe it’s Friday already again. Even scarier is the fact that Christmas is now only three short weeks away! This fall has gone by in a flash… It’s hard to believe that Thanksgiving is already over and the Christmas season is now in full swing! So, if you’re still scrambling to catch up…
