While I’m buy getting all settled in to my new home we have a guest blogger for you today! Aren’t you lucky? Lisa blogs over at Wine & Glue and if you haven’t “checked” her out it’s totally a must do thing. She’s absolutely amazing. I’d have to say she’s definitely one of my best blogging buddies. She’s quick, witty, sarcastic and well let’s just say it works for me. I might, just might, be the same way. So while {Read More}
Hey it’s Julie here and I’m a little behind. Cinco de Mayo is right around the corner as in like 2 days from now and I’m just finally posting a yummy Mexican dish for you. Better late than never right? Or something like that… I try to act like I have it all together, but honestly you should see my house right now. Or should I say houses right now. My kitchen is full of boxes piled high, I’m just {Read More}
I have a confession to make. I’m a sucker for the blue box kind of mac and cheese. I’m not going to lie. It’s easy, it’s good and I go for it. BUT I’ve been crazily pinning all kinds of Crock Pot Mac & Cheese recipes. The only problem is that I can only leave them in the crock pot for a few hours before the noodles turn to mush so obviously a weekday meal of this is out the {Read More}
Hey guess what? Cinco de Mayo is officially the next “Foodie” holiday coming up! Well at least it is in my book. I’ll take any excuse I can get to make a theme for my recipes, so be on the watch out for some fun Mexican recipes coming up. If that’s not your thing don’t worry. I have a true all american dessert coming up on Monday. Trust me. I couldn’t keep my hands off of it. Ok, back to {Read More}
Mark another first up for this lady! Using the broiler in my oven to make some yummy burgers. I had to literally go through a tote and dust off the broiling pan that we received for our wedding almost three years ago that was still in the packaging. The baby is not going to go back in the tote after making these burgers that’s for sure! My sister-in-law always tells me how much she uses her broiler and I just {Read More}
Trying to get supper ready lately has been a real challenge. I can’t plop Miss K in a swing and leave her while she looks at her surroundings. Instead I have to quick run around while trying not to step on her as she crawls under my feet. Then tries to pull herself up on my leg. I know these moments will end and I don’t want to wish away her childhood, but boy it’s challenging. I’ve resorted to {Read More}
Wow. Another month gone so that means it’s time for the monthly Secret Recipe Club reveal day! The days are flying by which isn’t good because every day is a day closer to our goal move in day on the new house. I’m getting slightly anxious that we won’t be in on that date, so we better get busy! This month I was assigned Christine’s Kitchen Chronicles. I saw the Red Lobster Parmesan Crusted Tilapia and knew that was the {Read More}
“Julie, I’m thawing a chicken this week.” Nothing makes me more excited than those words coming out of my mom’s mouth. It means she’s also going to make Chicken Noodle Soup and spoil me with some. There is nothing better than warming up with a big ‘ol bowl of Chicken Noodle Soup made my your Momma on a cold winter night. Takes the chill ALMOST right out of your bones. Trust me. The chill never leaves my bones completely during {Read More}
What are the two most common, easy recipe fall backs in life? My answer would definitely be Pizza and Spaghetti. *GASP* That’s right I do not make homemade meals every night. Shocker right? Not. I’m normal just like you and that frozen pizza is way to easy some nights. I was chatting with a friend the other day, whom is a mother of 1 year old twins, and we were wondering why we didn’t make frozen pizza more often so {Read More}
With the house project going on I’m always looking for super simple ideas to provide a lunch on Saturday while we have people out there helping us. My lovely sis-in-law served this last summer at the lake and I knew it was going to come in handy sometime. This was the time! You just buy pre-cut ham or take a ham to your deli and have them cut it for you. Obviously whichever is cheaper is the way to go {Read More}
