    I was never a fan of guacamole until I met my husband. He makes the BEST guac (as we usually call it in our house). Even people who don’t like guacamole like my handsome hubby’s guac. His recipe is simple. It’s made with simple real ingredients. (I asked if he would let me share his…

    This is the second in a series of posts based upon the baked potato. If you haven’t seen it yet, start with this post for Outback Style Baked Potatoes. You’ll need them for the Baked Potato Soup recipe in this post. Well, baby, it’s still cold outside. In fact it’s even colder than it was…

    Baby it’s cold outside! It’s been years since I’ve seen truly cold weather – I mean single digit temperatures with below-zero wind chill. In order to help keep the heat bill down but stay warm, we’ve weather proofed our ground-floor apartment; plastic over the patio slider, towel rolled up as a stopper under the front…

    School has started and autumn is around the corner. It’s one of my favorite times of the year. We’ve just moved to Michigan, so this year we’ll be able to pick our own apples and pumpkins. That means we’ll be sampling cider, doughnuts, pies, muffins, apple butter and pumpkin butter, pancakes, cookies, cupcakes and cakes, dumplings,…

    It’s time to Celebrate! Summer is a time of celebrations. There’s Independence Day (and Canada Day for my Canadian friends), Labor Day, and many birthdays of friends and family – including MINE (yes, I still get excited about my birthday, don’t you?). Summer is a great time to party it up! As much as I…

    I’m always on the lookout for delicious and healthy food. Yes, I want to lose weight (as does the handsome husband), but more importantly, we want to eat real and healthy food as much as possible. Diets that cut out whole food groups never sounded healthy, balanced or sustainable. The minute you eat a carb…

    Does anyone else have a busy life? Dumbest. Question. Ever. Trying to balance all of life’s aspects requires about 32 hours a day, but we only get 24. That’s why I LOVE crock pot cooking. It’s a HUGE time saver! Simply dump (or carefully layer) the ingredients into the magical appliance, turn it on, and walk away. Hours…

    Summer is almost here. Depending on where you live, school is either already finished or nearly so. That means it’s time for summer vacations, and in my world that means lots and lots of snacks and foods in miniature sizes – perfect for taking to the park, to the beach, on a road trip, on…

    This year I found out there is a National Grilled Cheese day, and there were a lot of amazing sounding grilled cheese recipes that flooded Pinterest; Grilled Mozzarella with Tomato Basil Soup, French Onion Soup Grilled Cheese, or Spinach Artichoke Grilled Cheese. But the one that had me running to the store was this Grilled Goat…

    Mmmm, Sangria! A fruity party in a pitcher. May is a month of celebrations; Star Wars Day (May the fourth be with you), Cinco de Mayo, Mother’s Day, and Memorial Day. Cinco de Mayo is a favorite of the foodie in me. I asked my handsome husband what foods would he like to celebrate the…
