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…
I am sure you have heard me fully admit to the fact that I am not a baker. I have never really enjoyed baking; I would much rather cook. But I have a small problem… I have a bit of a sweet tooth. So while I don’t particularly want to bake, I do. You know,…
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…
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…
Pizza. Mmm. I mean, who doesn’t love pizza? And if you tell me you know someone or you are that someone, I will give you the same reaction that I give when I hear that you don’t like chocolate. Because, huh?? I LOVE pizza. So when I went on a dairy-free diet because of my…
So I recently discovered that my 8 month old has an intolerance to milk protein, which forced me to cut all dairy out of my diet. This was a bit devastating for me… I LOVE cheese, you guys. I mean, my favorite foods are pizza and nachos. What else am I supposed to eat at…
It’s official. Thanksgiving has ended. No more stuffing, no more pies, no more gravy. However… if you’re like me, you still have some turkey sitting in the fridge just begging to be transformed into another meal. At this point I’ve had my fill of the traditional turkey dinner (gorging myself on Thanksgiving and then having one night…
Ever since my family started eating clean, I have begun baking WAY more than I ever used to. I’ve always loved to cook, but bake? No thanks. I mean, if you’re baking, I’m eating… but it feels like an awful lot of work when I have to do it myself (does that sound lazy?). But…
