This recipe is in our lives because of Hubby. He found it in some sort of parenting magazine while waiting to get his hair cut a few years ago, and he decided to surprise us with it. It was a hit, of course! (That’s probably a given any time chocolate chips and marshmallows are involved.) Read More …
We’ve had uncharacteristically wet weather in Colorado this year, but the last few weeks have warmed up more like usual. And dry, hot weather is a perfect time to barbecue! I pulled out one of my favorite recipes last week and boy, it had been too long since I’d made it! I’m eager to share Read More …
We needed a quick side dish and vegetable this week, and my Green Bean and Corn Salad did the trick! It’s best when the beans and corn are fresh, of course, but it works well with frozen veggies in a pinch, which is what I did this time. I love that it takes some very Read More …

Hubby has gone to town with the new donut pan we received a few months ago, and so donuts have become familiar around our house. But baked donuts still aren’t quite the same thing as traditional fried donuts. Yes, fried are Read More …
After sharing this cake, I had several requests for a tutorial on cake decorating. Here, I walk you through a Batmobile cake, but you can make any shape you wish! Read More …
I’m back! And it’s Monday, so it’s time for another recipe! It’s funny, four years ago I discovered that a good way to ignore the passage of time is to be 8 1/2 months pregnant on your birthday. I wasn’t the least bit interested in turning 30 because I had a baby on the way Read More …

Internet searches led me to a variation of this recipe, which is both wonderfully flavorful and wonderfully easy! The only catch is that it takes a lot of time. It stews Read More …
