Happy St Patrick’s Day – I have my corned beef simmering on the stove top. Instead of peeling my veggies like I normally do so everything is prepped ahead of time; I decided to make some cornbread in my slow cooker. Yeah you read that correctly. I have been getting and give a couple of subscriptions of Better Homes & Gardens for more years than … Continue reading Corn Bread – slowcooker
Soup is my jam period – I mentioned quite a while ago my dream of opening a soup joint or something along those lines. I also share quite a few soup recipes on this blog and I am pretty sure I will continue to do so. Every time I make a soup that makes me smile, and no not all of them do, I have failed … Continue reading Sausage, spinach, tomato tortellini soup
Did you watch the game last week? You know the one I am talking about; Patriots against Chiefs wow that was stressful. I don’t usually yell to to much during the game but I was quite loud (according to my daughter who was upstairs) and on the edge of my seat those last 8 minutes of the 4th quarter. I knew when we had the … Continue reading Slow Cooker Short Ribs
We have finally gotten to the weekend free to do what you have ignored for the last 2 months because of the holidays. 99% of the decorations are put away, I still have the porch looking a little festive but I am down with that.

It all works right? I actually used my slow cooker for the sweet and sour chicken that I will confess was ridiculously easy to … Continue reading Easy Sweet and Sour Chicken
Harvest season is upon us and I WISH I had a time elapsed camera set up near my squash because for the life of me I cannot figure out how on Monday they are almost but just not the right size and come Tuesday and they are like DAMN what the heck! This morning (Saturday) I was sitting at the island enjoying my tea planning … Continue reading Crockpot Cauliflower Bolognese
I have heard a lot lately from people really interested in quick easy meals. I too really like it when you can throw together something quick and easy but doesn’t taste like you just threw some things on a plate. While we do like an occasional hotdog, beans and fries dinner; we for the most part want a little more love for dinner. Even though … Continue reading Easiest Pork Shoulder – slow cooker
This week my kitchen was pretty quiet; which is my way of saying that I didn’t make anything exciting that I felt I HAD to share with you. That doesn’t mean we didn’t eat it’s more how I would say “no brainer” meals were had this week. What I mean by that is whatever was simple, quick and not a lot of ingredients. Any shortcut … Continue reading Slow Cooker Chicken Thighs

If nothing else it was absolutely beautiful around here. I literally … Continue reading Cabbage Soup – EASY
