Okay, so please forgive the quality of this picture…it was late at night, at a Girl Scout campfire event. Which was a blast, by the way. Any way, my co-Leader had this wonderful idea…I totally wish I could take credit for it. And, I am ashamed to admit it, but I LOVE my marshmallows totally […]
Easter Basket Cake
I just love Easter! I love celebrating the true meaning of Easter as well as the fun side. I plan on sharing a lot of Easter goodies with y’all in the next few weeks…unfortunately for my waistline, I think they are all sweet treats. Some are fun and some are more for the religious aspects […]

BBQ Chicken Bites
Welcome to Kids in the Kitchen. This is my 2nd KITK post, which will be a regularly occurring feature the first Friday of every month (check out the first one for St Patrick’s Day). I am always surprised to hear that people aren’t teaching their children how to cook…or even basic kitchen rules and safety. […]
Grilled Ruben Sandwiches
I ended up freezing a bunch of left over corned beef from St. Patrick’s Day. I love this stuff, but I like to spread out my meals. The other night, we were all really busy so I pulled the meat out of the freezer and whipped up these tasty sandwiches. Unfortunately most of my family […]
Grilled Turkey & Cheese Sandwiches
When I posted a month or so ago about Hubbyman’s Grown-Up Grilled Cheese Sandwiches, one my readers emailed me her hubbyman’s favorite sandwich that he started making back in college. It sounded so good that I just had to try it (although, it’s not exactly how she described it…but it’s close enough). Her hubbyman, even […]
Pomegranate Lemonade
A tall glass of Pomegranate Lemonade is just what summer ordered! I haven’t met a lemonade that I didn’t love! And this Pomegranate Lemonade is definitely one of my favorites. It’s sweet and tangy and the sugary rim takes it over the top. Pomegranate Lemonade This pomegranate lemonade is seriously one of my all time […]
Coconut Grilled Pineapple
Hubbyman and I were watching one of our favorite cooking shows on PBS called Primal Grill with Steven Raichlen. Seriously, hubbyman even took me on a vacation to the resort where it is filmed. He made this wonderful looking dessert and so we just had to make it the next day. It was so simple […]
Frozen Mocha Latte
This frozen mocha latte beats that big coffee chain’s frozen drink easily. It’s cheaper, I don’t have to leave my house, I control the ingredients, and honestly…I think it tastes better. Unfortunately, I make this way to often. It is my usual mid-afternoon pick me up on days when I am just draggin’. Putting it in […]
Our Traditional St Paddy’s Day Meal & More
I’m starting a new series called “Kids in the Kitchen”. Somehow, my blog got away from me and became only recipes. I want to try to get it back to my vision which still includes TONS of recipes, but lots of ideas for the family, tips in the kitchen, favorite products, etc. Kids in the […]

Spinach Ice Cream
Ha! Do I have your attention now? Since I am doing a week of St. Patrick’s Day ideas, I thought I would throw this one in. I promise you can’t taste the spinach! We went to Costco last week and BlendTec, which is an awesome blender, had a display and the pitchman was making this […]
