I haven’t been around for a while but I really have been trying to adjust to having such an active child in the house. It has been such an adjustment for me because Top Girl was so very calm and quiet but Rocket is “all boy” as Mr. Picky Eater says. Running, climbing, jumping, yelling…

Tex-Mex and the Red River Rivalry
Well – the game is over and we got our pants beat off by the Texas Longhorns. They deserved to win because they outplayed us (OU). The best part of the day was what I served: Tex-Mex with a version of Pam’s Chili Cheese Dip from Om Nomalicious and Pa-Blam. Let’s not speak of the…
Milky Way Bundlettes
Hello everyone! I know it’s been a while. I’ve been trying to get on a schedule since the kids moved in but so far it’s not working out very well! I am sure I will get used to all the activity soon – in the meantime, do you remember last Valentine’s Day when I tried…
Oklahoma Women Bloggers Thrift Challenge
For those of you, who are used to a recipe from me, know every so often I post something I have repurposed – and when I say “I”, I mean I buy and have the idea and Mr. Picky Eater executes the design. This one is pretty impressive and it’s all due to MPE’s talent!…
Rice Krispie Candy

Gluten Free Cinnamon Rolls
Are you a Gluten Free family? Do you have Celiac Disease? I suppose if you have never tasted bread, rolls, pizza or cinnamon rolls then you wouldn’t miss them but what about someone who loved them and suddenly found eating it would make you sick? That would be awful! So – this recipe is for…
Peach Cobbler
My Nana was such a great cook and I didn’t even give it a second thought growing up – these days I sure wish I had paid more attention to what she did. She made a wonderful cobbler. Blackberry, blueberry, cherry, apple and peach. Her cobbler crust was not exactly like pie crust and it…
Pepper Braised Ribs
How is everyone doing this holiday weekend? We have been busy moving in the kids and getting things settled down. This hello fresh discount code has been a life saver! I have also done a few Halloween projects for my posts on Hometalk (click on the icon to the right) so I have been very…
Tailgating – BBQ Burritos
Are you ready for some football?!?! This Saturday begins the college season for us and while we are still frantically moving the kids in with us and rearranging the entire house, all will stop for a few hours on Saturday to watch the University of Oklahoma play a game of football. Half the kids are…
