Finding Fabulous Food, Photos and Crafts to Share
If you have been reading this blog for a while, you know I’m not a huge fan of chocolate. I had a friend about 5 years ago who didn’t like it at ALL. I couldn’t understand her! What? You crazy woman? 5 years later, I totally get it. I know I’m weird. BUT – I …
Book Update: I have no books 🙁 I have been spending my spare time making our Christmas card and talking to our medical insurance company. They denied my husband’s surgery, so I have had the pleasure of chatting with the surgeon’s office, the medical insurance company and my husband. It is scheduled for next Wednesday… …
Book Update: I started the second book “A Thousand Splendid Suns” from our book club. It is one of her favorite books ever, but it is not for everyone. If you read his other book, “Kite Runner”, then you probably have an idea of what the other book will contain. Oh! And Veronica Roth …

Before posting a recipe, I try to do it several times to see what will happen. This experiment turned out so delicious that I decided to make it a separate post! I think this would be great for a healthy dessert alternative as well. Some redi-whip or homemade whipped topping with it, perhaps? We …
Have your chocolate and vegetables too! (Well, it is a squash… so maybe it is actually a fruit?) The kids NEVER ever noticed there was zucchini in this bread and they ate the entire loaf! Well, it isn’t the most healthiest thing for you, but if you are going to eat something it might as …
I looooooove strawberries! They are my favorite food ever! So, naturally I love strawberry shortcake and anything strawberry related. This recipe has a few steps and I did break it down over two days, but it was really worth it. Plus, now I have a super awesome way to make cream cheese whipped cream by …
