In the morning when I wake, give me Jesus… and coffee. This is my morning mantra. Because Lord help me, I am NOT a morning person. Getting myself and the kids ready and out the door by 7:30 without becoming a fire-breathing dragon takes a lot of effort from me… and sadly, I am not…
Disclosure: I received a copy of Baking Class for free in order to review. All opinions are my own. I was not compensated for this post, I simply enjoyed the product and wanted to share! Every time I step into the kitchen to bake, the kids think it’s a great idea that they join me.…
I have always enjoyed cooking. I used to have the time and energy to try out new recipes, but in the last couple of years with the addition of 3 kids and a busy work schedule, I can barely muster up the energy and excitement to throw a frozen pizza in the oven… But as…
Just try and look at these pictures of turkeys without drooling. Just try. I’m a late bloomer, so I am just figuring out how I’m going to cook my turkey tomorrow morning. I never make it the same way, because I have some sort of sickness. I guess I just haven’t found a recipe that…

There’s nothing better on a cold day than a bowl of soup; and something particularly hearty like potato soup really makes me happy. I also love that potato soup is so easy to make and really requires very little time, effort, or ingredients – all important things to this busy lady. Ever since my husband…
You guys remember Magic Shell, right? It was super cool before there were 18,000 different kinds of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavors and chocolate sauce was about as fancy as you could get with your dessert. I always referred to it as a “chocolate dipped cone” because that is the only form I ever…
I’m not usually all that into Halloween. It’s an ok holiday, but it’s never really been my jam. Maybe it’s because I have to spend the weeks following explaining to my kids why they can’t have another lollipop because Mommy doesn’t want to pay to fill their cavities (also because Mommy ate all the lollipops…
Mmm. Pizza. I think I have a new resolution to see how many pizza recipes I can post on here. I’ve been experimenting ever since giving up dairy, and while you can never replace the ooey-gooey goodness of cheese-covered delivery pizza, I have learned that you can still have plenty of good pizza without the…
