Not long ago, Jamie shared her strawberry shortcake cookies. She was at my house when she made them and I thought they were so yummy and cute! And then I thought we should make some star ones for the 4th of July and use not only strawberries but blueberries as well. I LOVE how …
Cute and individual sized Strawberries and Cream Hand Pies. I love all things strawberry. Seriously, this is one of my favorite times of year, since I can finally find delicious strawberries at the store. And we even have some strawberries growing in our garden- though I rarely get to eat one, since the kiddos like …
The first of the Vintage Recipe series I’d like to share is Quick and Easy Chocolate Chip Cookies. While flipping through old cookbooks, I found several recipes labeled as “quick.” Not all the recipes were actually quick by our standards. However, this recipe really is quick. I was amazed at how quickly I was done …
After moving and unpacking most of the boxes, I found some cookbooks that used to be my grandmothers. I started flipping through them and found that some of the recipes were marked. I’m not sure if my grandmother marked them or someone else. But I thought it would be fun to try out these recipes …
Strawberry Shortcake Cookies are the classic dessert in cookie form! I am a huge strawberry fan. During my pregnancy with Baby Girl, I was eating at least one of the big packs from Costco each week. I’ve got a problem, I know! I love Strawberry Shortcake, but wanted to try something new, so I dreamed …
I love to cook according what is in season. Currently mangos are in season. And one of my favorite things to make with mangos is mango salsa. I got this recipe when I lived in Texas. I went to a “family” gathering and someone had brought it. It was so good I begged for …
Make a treat for yourself in just 3 minutes! Individual peach crisp is an awesome and easy dessert! I love the idea of mug cakes. I love baked goods, but one of the best thing about making single-serve cakes is that you only get one portion- you can’t eat half the dish (not that I …
Welcome to another addition of “Outside the Box Monday.” Today, we won’t have a diy recipe or idea but something else that I’ve found tends to save me a lot of money: having a well stocked freezer! Often I hear about having a well stocked pantry, to keep you from having to run out and …
May is National Salad month. Did you know that? I sure didn’t until a couple days ago. But it makes sense. It’s starting to get warmer and you don’t want to cook big heavy meals and swimsuit season is just around the corner. Hence, you may be eating a lot of salad. And probably a …
Apparently I waited too long to attempt my goal for this month. I really need to start earlier in the month. I have seen people making cannoli many times on tv. But I have never had one. So I put it on my list for my goals. Last week I realized I needed cannoli forms. …
This lemonade cake is super easy as it uses a cake mix as a base! But there are so many possibilities for what you can do with it. That I just had to share it! You can make cupcakes, use it as a pound cake with strawberries or even eat it plain and it’s fantastic! …
I used to be a big user of non dairy coffee creamer. I like a little coffee with my creamer. And I like my creamer flavored and sweet. But not long after I got married, a friend shared with The Hardworking Husband and I how bad the creamer is. It is full of chemicals. …
