Now I Get It! {Recipe: Biscoff Biscotti & “Keep Warm” with Frigidaire}

January 26, 2012

Pin It I finally get the love people have for Biscotti. I honestly didn’t understand it before. Why was there such adoration for a crunchy type treat that seemed to be having an identity crisis? Is it a cookie or is it a biscuit? Besides that, all the Biscotti I had in the past seemed [...]

Happy National Popcorn Day {Recipe: Buttery Brown Sugar Popcorn}

January 19, 2012

Pin It Today is National Popcorn Day…who knew, right? When I first started blogging, I had what I thought was a brilliant idea. I’d do my blog posts each time it is a National Food day. Oblivious as I was to the fact that every single day is a “national food day” of some sort. [...]

Simple and Special {Recipe: Chocolate Dipped Oreo Cookies on a Stick}

July 26, 2011

Sometimes it is easy to get caught up in the outlandish, especially when it comes to kids. I forget that to get smiles on their faces, it doesn’t always require something big and grandiose. In this day and age of elaborate kid parties, parents determined to outdo each other and hyped up hoopla, take some [...]

Go Green With Sunkist Valencia Oranges {Recipe: Creamy Orange Milkshake}

July 15, 2011

This post brought to you by Sunkist. All opinions are 100% mine. So, oranges are supposed to be orange, right? Guess what… not always! I know…that’s news to me too. I just assumed with a name like orange you’d be that color, but with Sunkist® Valencia oranges, that’s not always the case. I recently found [...]

Alluring Cake Balls {Recipe: Thin Mint Chocolate Cake Balls}

June 20, 2011

I’ve heard the talk of them over the past couple of years… these little things called cake balls. As much as I love cake – I really, really love cake – the cake balls never really tempted me. I have been able to avoid cake balls, un-phased by their alluring pull all over the internet. [...]

On a Stick by Matt Armendariz {Recipe: Caramel Popcorn Balls)

June 7, 2011

I have what I would call a somewhat strange obsession with food trucks and fair food. We don’t have many food trucks in Kansas, unless you count the ice cream man, but fairs? Boy oh boy do we have fairs and from a young age, I have been fascinated by the food served at these [...]

Spring Optimisim {Recipe: Hot Chocolate Cookies with Marshmallows}

March 30, 2011

I’m optimistically looking in my pantry and trying to figure out ways to get rid of all the hot chocolate mix I stocked up on during the frigid winter. My hope is that spring is here to stay and I won’t need to warm the kids up when they come in from playing outside with [...]

Eat.Live.Be Week 4 {Recipe: Chocolate Malt Krispie Bars}

January 25, 2011

Technically this… Plus this… Should not equal this… (which is down 2 pounds from my weigh in last week of 179). I did a horrible job on my Weight Watchers points this week, but made up for it with keeping up with my exercising. Even got up at 6am on Saturday to exercise… I purposely [...]
