Garden is doing OK, or maybe you should ask the deer I bet they have a better feel for how it is going grrrrr. My dog is not doing his job as well as my last dog. We have noticed a definite decline in us enjoying our garden that we spend time money and effort on. The deer and bunnies seem to LOVE it. Where … Continue reading Zucchini Bread
I am actually not a big breakfast person, don’t get me wrong I love all kinds of breakfast foods, I just don’t wake up and immediately want to eat. My husband says the only reason he gets out of bed is because he is starving – insert eye roll here! He has been on a Sunday morning banana pancake kick for months now. I think … Continue reading Shirred Eggs
There is nothing like a cast iron skillet. I know I have mentioned this before but you should get one if you don’t have one. Use it if you have one and it just sits at the bottom of the pile. There are so many things you can make with it. I use mine for burgers, steaks, last night I used it for pork chops. … Continue reading Breakfast Skillet Spinach Bacon & Cheese
Sitting here thinking of what to have for breakfast and knowing I need to blog soon. This week was my 10th anniversary of writing my food blog. I was going to post a “yeah me” post but it was a crazy week and I just didn’t have the time. I am on the board, actually the secretary, of a local charity. We put on our … Continue reading Shredded Hash Brown Cups
I struggle for healthy satisfying weekday breakfast ideas. I go through phases of cereal, english muffins, oatmeal, a smoothie or I will make a frittata and eat a piece every morning for the week. I try to think about eating something healthy but when it comes right down to it I really am going to grab whatever is simple. Which is kind of sad since … Continue reading Shirred Eggs – breakfast bowls
I have been crazy busy this last week with working on a design consulting gig I was honored to be asked to do. This would be my first paid design job but I have given my friends over the years much advice on how to update and refresh their place for an update or a sale, pick paint colors, choose flooring, countertops you name it. … Continue reading Blueberry muffin – scone
Last night I was watching the last season of The Great British Baking show and the task was to make 2 different flavor profile quiche. I know this might come as a shock but I have never made quiche before; I know what is my damage. Honestly I haven’t really had any that blew my skirt up; if you get my drift. They have been … Continue reading Ham, Broccoli and the Cheesiest Quiche
Here is another thing to do with leftover mashed or smashed potatoes. I know like that’s a thing it usually is in my house only because I tend to make way too many; pretty much all the time. The great thing about this is you don’t actually to have to wait for leftovers. You can buy mashed potatoes already made from the store, which I … Continue reading Cheesy Mashed Potato Casserole
A few weeks ago I ripped out a page from a cooking magazine that looked like something we would eat. I do this ALL the time and have SO many pages that I don’t really know how to deal with them. Or at least I haven’t actually done anything with all of them other than place them in “like” piles such as seafood, sandwiches, salads, side … Continue reading Shirred Eggs
