A St Patrick Day Scavenger Hunt is always a hit with my Little Chefs! On that special day the leprechauns will be out roaming your homes and schools for the fun and enjoyment of all the little ones. St. Patrick’s Day to my family is all about leprechauns, rainbows, gold coins and clovers. All day long […]

Do you love celebrating fun holidays like St. Patrick’s Day with food?! This Cinnamon Sugar SOFT PRETZELS recipe is amazing! These pretzels smell and taste just like the mall pretzels. Every now and then we invite a bunch of kids over for a late night. They ALWAYS want something to eat. Instead of having food available for them […]

A good friend of mine owned a store that sold specialty popcorn. I loved all the popcorn there! We had some peppermint candies and thought white chocolate peppermint popcorn would be good. The first thing we did was pulverize the candies. If this didn’t work there was no need to go any farther without rethinking […]

Summer cooking to me means easy recipes. I always ask myself, “What can I make that is fast and will not heat my house.” We like to get chips from a local restaurant then dip them in salsa, pico de gallo or some creamy homemade guacamole. These chips come in a large bucket so that […]

Have you accepted our Challenge: Shed 300 in 30 days? Wednesday is day 30, the last day of our challenge. Whether you have been following our challenge or have been doing your own spring cleaning now is a great time to start a chore chart. This is a way to keep my kids and myself […]

We are excited to bring you a couple new holiday easy crafts this week.  My son is out of school until he starts Kindergarten in Sepetember, so doing crafts is always a joy for us.  It is a great time to sit down with him and spend some one on one time.  Having a little sister […]

Dinner is put away, chores are done, kids are showered and in bed, now it is time for ME. What can I do to reward myself for making it through the day? I ask myself this question on those especially hard days. The answer varies of course for me as I’m sure it would for […]

I woke up today with snow falling from the sky. What a good day to make Crock Pot White Chicken Chili. This is an easy recipe where everything can be added in the crock pot, frozen chicken included, turn it on low and let it cook all day. Just before serving pull out the chicken, shred, […]

  We are always in need of a good side dish. Potatoes are cheap themselves which makes a good option, depending on the cost of the additional ingredients. This potato recipe had ingredients that we either already stock in our pantry, or were easy to find. All the ingredients were prepped. Little Chef C was […]

Today was a cheese day. Before the surgery she would choose to have a cheese stick and then only take one or two bites. Today she ate 4 cheese sticks in a row before I could convince her to choose something else. She ate 3 more at other times of the day. Strange. Sometimes she […]
