Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
Book Update: Middle School Language Arts test is done!!! Woo hoo!! I thought it was pretty easy except for a couple of novels I had never read. I would post them… but afraid that ETS would hunt me down. We have to sign over and over again that we won’t reveal any questions or any answers …
I know, I know it sounds weird. But it actually was good! I saw this idea on my Facebook feed under Whole Foods and figured since I had everything for it, why not try it? The kids ate it. Maddox ate several and Juliana licked the chocolate off and skipped the pineapple. Which is odd …
I grew up on Totino’s pizza rolls. This Super Bowl Sunday I figured I could try making something similar myself. I only needed a little pizza sauce for these rolls and thought it would be a waste to open up a whole jar. Dierbergs had tomato sauce on sale for 25 cents per can last …
Our local grocery store has a flyer every so often filled with recipes and I really enjoyed this one. It was written by Leslee Holliday, Matt Holliday’s wife. He is a left fielder for the St. Louis Cardinals. Or was… I don’t keep up with sports. But anyway, Leslee also studied nutrition and came up …
Books I’m reading: “Wait for Me” (a free Kindle book) and “Peace Like a River” by Leif Enger. “Peace Like a River” is a really good story with a lot of literary devices (symbols, themes, foreshadowing, etc.). Though the devices and the style make the book not exactly conversational and a breeze to read through, …
I have a few new recipes to post and a craft I am working on (but my Singer sewing machine has decided to stop working for some reason). Instead, I thought it would be fun to summarize the top posts on Whisk Together as well as some of my favorite “ah ha! It worked!” recipes …
“Can’t see my eyes!” – This was Juliana’s phrase tonight before going to bed. (I really need to start writing these down. A few weeks ago, she woke up to tell me “Rocks in my ears.”) I started toying with the idea of somehow creating a plot around this statement. It reminded me of the …
I found this trick in one of my Alton Brown books. It is how I make all my caramel popcorn and such, but never realized to put it on Whisk Together. Since the FDA has asked the popcorn manufacturers to “voluntary” stop using chemicals that are potentially harmful in their popcorn bags, this was a …
Happy Friday!! This is a fun snack for Fall – it really looks and tastes like Fall. Great for parties or divide up as a snack or hand out in pretty cellophane bags. This recipe makes a LOT! It filled up my two huge salad bowls if that gives you an idea of how much …
Happy Halloween!!! This recipe was just plain scary to make, so I will post it today! 🙂 **This recipe is pretty finicky with the temperature. I made it again and it came out like peanut brittle. I’ll have to work on it some more. But be mindful.** So I got my Food Network Nov. 2012 …
