I have to be honest with you. I posted the pictures here probably a month ago when we actually had this meal for dinner. However. I have completely neglected to publish it along with the directions. Which is no big deal except I can’t remember exactly how I went about these glorious potatoes. I’m going […]
Molasses Sugar Cookies
Kevin recently declared that his favorite cookie is a molasses cookie. I myself have always loved spiced cookies such as gingersnaps and molasses sugar cookies–though most of my peers shy away from this genre of treat. (That is, they are our grandparents’ favorites!) Immediately I was on the hunt for a great recipe–one that combined […]
Chocolate Cookies
These cookies are definitely a way to satisfy a chocolate craving. They come out nice and chewy and of course chocolately! I have no idea where this recipe came from and while I plan on trying it again sometime, I found it rather difficult to roll the dough into the logs needed to chill and […]
The One with the Medical Graphic-ness
I don’t know about you, but I am totally ok with this mild summer we’ve been having. With the exception of that one week before July 4th. yuk. I am all about the 70s and sunny. I am not, however, a fan of warts. They are disgusting. I have known many a beautiful person to […]
The One with the Week in Review
What a week this has been. A great week! Friday we set up camp. Had a camp fire. LOVE camp fires. And roasted marshmallows. Roasted perfectly I might add, by my darling husband. We had camp fires every night. Now THAT’S what I’m talkin’ about. You just canNOT say you’re camping if you don’t have […]
The One with Where We’re Going to Family Camp
Tonight we leave for family camp and we’ll be gone until Thursday. It should be a great time! Now, if only we can fit everything into our Civic. Not even kidding. Kevin and I are taking our bikes and will use them to take us the 5.5 miles down to Freddie’s Freeze. It’s ok to […]
Barbeque Pot Roast & Zesty BBQ Sauce
We have had a pork roast in the freezer for…well…way too long now so I took it out to defrost in the fridge and hopefully forcing myself to use it. I asked Kevin for his opinions/cravings on how I should prepare and he said “barbeque.” Now, I’ve never heard of a barbeque pork roast, but […]
Better than Your Average Oatmeal
Personally, I hated oatmeal for my entire childhood. My sister loved the instant stuff –especially strawberries and cream–but I just couldn’t stomach the texture. In college I gave oatmeal another shot to impress me and I began to enjoy the Dining Common’s extra thick oatmeal with loads of brown sugar. I was soon hooked on […]
The One with the Question of the Day
I’ve been a lazy bones this week. Ok, maybe I shouldn’t go quite that far. Maybe I’ve just been taking it easy. For once. Kevin’s getting up at 5am now so he can come home earlier. Which is awesome. Except there is NO reason for me to be up at 5am. 6am was early enough. […]
Zucchini Bread
This recipe was passed on to me by my wonderful mother-in-law who knew this was one of my favorite breads and has made it for me often. It’s delicious and just spicy enough and perfectly moist. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Zucchini Bread 3 eggs2 cups sugar2 cups shredded zucchini […]
