Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
Happy New Year! I haven’t posted much this year. A lot of July through December goes towards working on our Dinner Theater, “The Charitable Sisterhood Christmas Spectacular.” One of the fun things I made for the potlock for the show were the Black Bean Brownies! And they are great for gluten-free friends, so they can …
Happy Sunday! It is fall and Sunday so that = football. Or if you are me that means rehearsal for the Christmas play 🙂 This year we will be performing Smoke on the Mountain on November 30-Dec. 2nd. I will be playing the part of June who proudly proclaims “I don’t sing. I sign.” So …
Good morning!!!! I am 170 days away from graduation with my Masters in School Counseling with Licensure. Hopefully, we will have more recipes after that! This one was so good that I am making sure to add it to the blog. This soup is a staple during the winter months. We went from 82 degrees …
What’s so awesome about lentils? Lentils are cheap. Lentils can be stored a long time because they are dried. Lentils are a great source of potassium, calcium, niacin, zinc and Vitamin K. Lentils are rich in fiber and lean protein. Lentils are a super food! We love our super foods here on Whisk Together! 🙂 Lentils are …
I made these on homemade baguettes. That recipe will be next! Why homemade baguettes? Because I’m too lazy to run to the store when I can dump the ingredients into my bread machine. These sandwiches are awesome and you DON’T need to make your own baguettes! You DO need to make these sandwiches. Please, pretty …
Happy June Everyone!

This photograph led Watson and Crick to the structure of DNA and the Nobel Prize in 1962. Since Rosalind died of cancer …
I am planning a Scrumptious Crockpot Freezer Meal Workshop in February. In case anyone wanted to make their own or needed the shopping list, I am posting it here. Just print, shop and freeze! For local readers, Schnucks has boneless/skinless chicken breast and thighs on sale until Tuesday! You can freeze them …
Book Update: Still taking my vacation time to watch “The Good Wife”! Recipe: This recipe gets to the heart about why I can’t stand most slow cooker recipes – they turn the food to mush. Leaving most of our food to cook for 8 hours a day is really, really gross. But, I’ve learned that …
Book Update: I finished “The Secrets of Happy Families” by Bruce Feiler while on vacation since it was a suggested book by Amazon. I think a lot of it could be applied to classrooms as well – especially elementary classrooms. The book is thoroughly researched with hundreds of books and authors referenced that are the …
Book update: This week in positive psychology we are discussing meditation and part of our homework is to meditate three times this week. Husband will be in Los Angeles … we’ll see if we can find time for our homework. Meditation does look like they are doing nothing, but it isn’t and it is more …
