Breakfast

Grab And Go Overnight Oats

Mornings aren’t my best time of day. I know some of you rise at the crack of dawn, work out, read a bit of the paper, do a load of laundry, and then whip up a healthy breakfast. Not so over here. I’m RUNNING out the door with my arms and head full…every day. Even […]

Save Your “Dough” Artisan Bread

It’s cold. It’s winter. I want bread. Hot homemade bread. There’s something about this time of year that makes me want to bake and wear slippers and drink cocoa. Ideally, someone would bring bread to my door around dinner time. ( A little soup wouldn’t hurt either ). HOWEVER, reality is cruel. I wanted to […]

Tortellini Soup

Eighteen minutes.  I timed it.  This “to die for” tortellini soup takes eighteen minutes from pot to mouth.  Next time you go to the store, buy some frozen tortellini.  An eighteen to twenty ounce bag will make a double batch, then the next time you’re in a pinch for dinner…..you won’t be in a pinch for dinner. I […]

Oodles Of Pool Noodles

Pool noodles. I’ve been tripping over one I’ve had a “plan” for since last summer.  I’d tuck it somewhere and it would reappear,(usually at night on my stairs, waiting for me like a ninja).  Anyway, did you know you could cut a pool noodle as easy a cutting through wheat bread?  We cut up several colors of pool noodles […]

DIY Tooth Fairy Box

I have to admit I was surprised that my daughter was so fond of this easy DIY Tooth Fairy Box.  Sometimes I forget how simple things can be. Often, we’re the complicators. This easy craft was a pleasant reminder to simplify, because I like simple, it’s so…..simple.  However, if you’re one of those “complicators”  you can easily whip out some cute fabric and embellishments and […]

Muzzy’s Delicious Hot Fudge

My husband’s family makes hot fudge for every get together.  EVERY get together.  We’ve been married for 25 years so I’ve eaten gallons of hot fudge.  Sadly, parts of me make that obvious to the human eye.  Anyway, legend has it that this was grandma Naoma’s (Mu’s) recipe.  I have teased my hubby for years […]

Lazy Girl Sticky Buns

I love to cook, and I can, but I am also l-a-z-y.  Sometimes I want to make something that only looks  like it was hard to do.  Maybe I secretly need the adoring looks from my children.  They are so few and far between when they get older.  Anyway, these sticky buns were DELISH.  I made them Sunday because I let […]

Valentine's Day

Easy Last Minute Valentine Idea

Sometimes my week does not go well.  We’re practically living in the car, or I have something to do every night.  Maybe you’re just now thinking…Hmmm.  What’s on for tomorrow?  Wait.  What?  Tomorrow is Valentine’s Day? I mean, you knew it was but you’re not ready. Those holidays can sneak up on you.  If you have waited until the last-minute for a […]
