Breaking away from the day to day
So just yesterday I was at BJ’s Brewhouse with a friend celebrating small victories and giving her an update on a parent meeting from school. After sharing some appetizers and salads (and of course Prosecco!) we were approached by the waitress about $3 Pizookies. Um, yes, please! Although I was trying to be “good” and…
Thank you to TruMoo Chocolate Milk for sponsoring this post. One of my all time favorite desserts is rice pudding. I love the creaminess paired with the tenderness of the rice. I rarely make it because I will eat the entire container myself! As a room mom for The Nag’s class, I was recently…
You have decided, or someone decided for you, that you will set up the candy buffet, dessert table for a party or event. The very thought of it makes you tired. You browse through websites, DIY craft sites, and search the internet for an idea of something you can do that looks polished and put…
Pasta is a staple in this house. We eat it any way we can get it! I adore Mac & Cheese. Who doesn’t? Actually, Little Ricky doesn’t…he’s weird. Changing up our mac & cheese intake a bit keeps this family on their toes. That’s why these Fried Mac & Cheese Bites are a perfect way…
Salty potato chips are SOOO good! Now think about salty potato chips that are warm straight from the oil. HEAVENLY! Sometimes I like to dip my chips in something with a bit of a bite to it like spicy mustard. Being that these chips are homemade and will likely be warm when you eat them,…
Do I really need to tell you that I’m ADDICTED anything sweet? Chocolate to be exact… Every time we sail on a Carnival Cruise, the first dessert I order is the Warm Chocolate Melting Cake. This yummy chocolate delight is proudly served in the main dining room and at some of the specialty restaurants on…
PIE! I LOVE PIE! There’s just something about the fruit-filled flaky crusted pastries that makes my heart swoon! (My mouth is actually watering just thinking about pie.) I enjoy combining my love with pies and Valentine’s Day with these Heart Shaped Mini Cherry Pies! Using store bought pie crusts and a heart-shaped cookie cutter is…
I am a huge sugar addict! I love anything sweet. Like, LOVE! My resolution this year is to lessen the amount of sugar that I consume. I’m not trying to cut it out altogether, just eat less of it…I mean, I’m not a hero. I know there are tons of sugar alternatives out there, but…

Between constant trips between baseball practices and games to running errands and not to mention my kids’ expanding social life, I’m always on the run. All this running…
In our house, one of our most favorite times of year is Halloween! We love dressing up, decorating the house and doing all things spooky. (This is a very weird thing considering I’m a scaredy cat!) Not only do we like to have fun with scary stuff around the house, but we love scaring up some…
