Sharing my random life is what I do best
So the other day I was having dinner with a close friend of mine when she mentioned how difficult it is to find something she could eat since she has so many allergies, especially to gluten. So that got me thinking, how could I change up my apple crisp recipe so my friend could enjoy a piece of fall heaven this season. After some experimenting, this gluten-free apple crisp was born, and it was well worth the effort. I actually enjoyed it more than my regular Apple Crisp recipe. Read More
Freezable breakfast sandwiches changed my life when I was a new first-time mama. Seriously. Between the all-night breastfeeding, lack of sleep, and barely noticing if my shirt was on backwards, I couldn’t imagine trying to make myself anything that remotely looked close to a breakfast meal. I’m forever grateful to all those moms in my life that recommended I plan ahead and freeze a few meals before Wendy was born. It was such a great idea and one that I’m sharing with you now. Breakfast was so much easier when all I had to do was pop a breakfast sandwich in the oven for 10 minutes and wait for the timer to go off.Read More
There are very few foods which are better than cheese and wine, especially when you are celebrating the season of parties and friendly get-togethers. I also know how impressive a good cheese board can be. For some reason, many people find them really complicated to put together. I know I felt that way once. At one point I didn’t even know what cheeses I should put on the board or even what board I should use. I really overthought this whole process. Then I stopped overthinking it and realized I had access to a pretty good source on cheese and deli boards, my mom. She used to work as a manager for a high-end grocery store in the deli and cheese department. She spent years recommending cheeses and meats and putting together beautiful cheese boards for some fancy people. So I asked her for some tips and advice on putting one together.Read More
I wasn’t a fan of eggnog until I met Chris. I mean I avoided it like fruitcake. Then our first Christmas together, Chris came home with a carton and added some rum to it and I was hooked. Thinking back, maybe it was the rum and not the eggnog that I liked. Anyways, we’ll never know because I happen to enjoy it now. I even make my own stuff, which I’ll be posting about in December. Since that day, I’ve been finding ways to include eggnog in some everyday recipes. I mean, the holidays are coming so why not, right? Read More
In our house, wings are a good go-to dinner idea because they are quick and not that formal. Plus if we’re watching a movie, or just hanging around on the deck, these are great. Plus they aren’t really big for you. They aren’t fried and coated in breading. So in my mind, they are pretty healthy.Read More
Yes, you read the title right, it’s a pizza made of cauliflower…well the crust at least and it’s pretty tasty.
