If you would have told me before today that I would make tomato soup and after one taste, I’d sit down and devour the whole bowl, I would not believe you. In fact, before today, the mere words “tomato soup” made me gag a bit. I love tomatoes fresh from the garden and in sauce [...]

$100 Visa Gift Card Giveaway {Recipe: Baked Alexia Onion Ring Dip}
Since joining the team at Alexia Foods as one of their blogger tastemakers, I’ve had a fun time trying to recreate old classic recipes using some of my favorite Alexia Food products. You might recall the Sweet Potato Casserole Bites I made awhile back, using Alexia Sweet Potato Puffs. Well, I’m at it again, but [...]
Baby Love {Recipe: Neapolitan Cream Filled Cupcakes}
I remember the day we found out our first baby was going to be a boy. I, of course, was happy to find out he was healthy but I was beside myself with worry about what I’d do with a boy. I am a girly girl, all the way around, and for some reason just [...]
Recipe: Asian Spice Slow Cooker Chicken Wings
I am starting to become a big, huge fan of my KitchenAid slow cooker. It took me awhile to appreciate the time saving value it could have in my life, but now that I know, I’m sold. You can make everything, practically, in a slow cooker! Breakfast, lunch and dinner… and even a snack in [...]
Power of Suggestion {Recipe: Fried Cheese Curds}

Almost There {Recipe: One Pot Sausage and Bush’s Beans Ragout}
My goal was to have a brand spanking new Dine & Dish to show you this week, but it’s not happening quite yet. Soon…very soon. I told myself I wasn’t going to post again until the new design was live, but I can’t do that to you! I can’t keep this delicious, comforting, one pot [...]
A Look at the Next 365 Days {Recipe: Country Oatmeal Bread}
I grew up in a home where bread with stuff in it was the norm. Hearty whole grain bread with oatmeal, nuts, wheat bits and more… the more stuff baked inside the bread, the better. I not so affectionately called it old people bread. Oh, how I longed for soft, tender pieces of white Wonder [...]
Simple Joy {Recipe: Rainbow Tie-Dyed Sugar Cookies}
Is it possible to find happiness in a cookie? When that cookie is a Rainbow Tie-Dyed Sugar Cookie, the answer is a resounding yes! There’s even more joy found when the whole family gets in on the action, piecing off dough and contributing to the giant, multi-colored log of psychedelic cookie dough. Makes me happy. [...]
