Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
My friend and old neighbor Hilary posted on her Facebook page about a new Instant Pot appliance. It could cook beans in 12 minutes! Chicken soup – from frozen chicken – in 30 minutes! So, yes I had to buy one. The slow cooker is great and all. But you know. It’s slow. We like fast …
Happy New Year Everyone! I hope you all had a great couple of three day weekends or some time off. I have my photography website up and running again! I took it down after my last child was born and her bedroom took over the indoor studio. Some of my absolute favorite photographs of the …
I hope everyone had a fabulous Christmas! I still haven’t had a chance to read any fantastic books to talk to you about. I am also trying to push another project out by 2016. You may have seen a little change on the home page of this website 😉 That’s part of the surprise. I’ve …
This Fall I received a super awesome book that you may want to add to your cookbook collection: The Chili Cookbook by Robb Walsh. If you want to learn about making chili, this is THE book for you. Mr. Walsh has included every single chili recipe category in the book along with a …

These sandwiches are awesome and you DON’T need to make your own baguettes! You DO need to make these sandwiches. Please, pretty …
My kids have a thing for Sloppy Joes. I have a thing for super easy mixes that are all ready to go in my pantry! I ran out of my Wildtree Sloppy Joe Mix and tried to make my own. This is pretty close. I try to keep my pantry pretty simple, and we …
Yippee!! It is 55 degrees outside, and I have been waiting three months to post this recipe. The recipe is very Fall flavored and making it in the summer is something weird that only I would do. SO – here is the Fall pizza of the year. I based it on my favorite lasagna of …
Craft: Here is a photo of what I was working on last week. After some trial and error with vinyl and fonts, I found a way to make these coasters for my cousin’s wedding. Recipe: I made this recipe with the previous post, “Mexican Cauliflower Rice”. It is really simple, fast and delicious! It is …
Book: I started reading “Big Little Lies” by Liane Moriarity. Someone had posted it on my Facebook feed. It is fiction, and it is hilarious! The book is PERFECT for this time of year, too! The moms are all at the school for the first day of kindergarten. I’m not a huge fiction fan, but …
