Guess what day it is? Yep, Cookie of the Month Day! This month’s ingredient is Chocolate Chip because Friday, May 15 is National Chocolate Chip Day this year. I made a special recipe with both dark and white chocolate chips as well as graham cracker crumbs. They are very thin and crispy with melty…

Knock Your Socks off Crock Pot Soup
This soup is scrumptious and I cannot wait for you to try it. I came to create this soup because I wanted to make the soup, Zuppo Toscano, that is from Olive Garden. My co-worker and I went to enjoy the unending soup and salad promotion they generally offer in January and February – once…
Scotch Egg Appetizer
First I want to show you a pretty cool creation and then repurpose by Mr. Picky Eater. Lawyer Boy and Minnie Mouse wanted arbors incorporated in the wedding but did not want to pay the $1,000 to rent two. Lawyer Boy felt his dad could “figure it out” so he took his dad to the…
Taco Meatball Wreath Appetizers or a Meal
Several days ago, I was reading my FB newsfeed when one of the pages I follow showed this great picture saying they were preparing that meal for dinner.

Strawberry Santa’s
A Facebook friend of mine from high school sent me a picture last week of little strawberry Santa’s and I just knew I had to make them. I searched the Internet for a tutorial or instructions and didn’t find too much. I honestly could only find 2 other posts with them and only one with…
Holiday Leftover Potato Pancakes
There are many “leftovers” recipes floating around the web right now and some of them look delicious. I haven’t posted in over a week so I wanted my first post back to be spectacular! I chose my Nana’s favorite recipe to use……….I guess the holidays make me think of her a lot because she and…
Sloppy Jacks for Sunday Supper
I hope everyone had a lovely weekend. We are preparing for yet another yard sale next Friday and Saturday so it has been a really busy day. I had planned to make beef ribs with a new BBQ sauce I got from a blogger friend of mine whose recipe I pinned. Then, when I got…
Super Easy Halloween Cupcakes
I made a bunch of cupcakes today and given that it is Halloween, I wanted to make them festive without spending all day in the kitchen. I used a cake mix and canned icing with a few extras and I think they came out pretty well! The first one – show at the top of…
