We’ve been stuck on these yummy fruit and yogurt parfaits recently. They’re pretty easy to make. There’s a couple of steps to it, particularly if you make your own granola, but it’s all pretty easy! I usually have small styrofoam cups with lids around for frozen fruit cups or leftover homemade ice cream. I’ve […]
Cheese and Grapes Tray
I put together this cheese and grapes tray at Christmastime last year. I saw a similar idea and it inspired me to do my own. I used green grapes, red grapes, cojack cheese, colby cheese, pepperjack cheese, monterey jack and tucked in some dill for garnish. I used cinnamon sticks at the bottom to create […]
Very Delicious Veggie Dip
Do you have a favorite veggie dip? Want a new one to try for end-of-summer garden veggies or to pair with soup as fall comes on? This one has been a long time favorite of mine. It’s super easy to whip up. I do still just grab a tub of Marzetti’s dip sometimes, but this […]
Ten Things I Did Over Labor Day Weekend
How was your weekend? We had a good one, although I ended up pretty tired. I was expecting to feel that way, though, after we were gone last weekend and had appointments and several things going on last week. We spent most of the weekend with all of Matthew’s family. It was great fun to […]
Homemade Salsa
I had a friend asking me about my salsa recipe. It’s one I have planned on adding here sometime. I needed to rewrite it with the changes and tweaks I’ve done and it struck me that it would be almost as quick to simply add it here. Then it would be here and she could […]
Corned Beef Cheeseball
Cheeseball. It’s just a yummy snack. It intrigues me how cream cheese can be so tasty as a salty type snack and so delicious in a sweet recipe. It’s all about what you add to it! We tend to fix cheeseball around the holidays, it seems. But, I also fix it some in the summer […]
Party Cheeseball
I remember my Mother fixing this cheeseball when I was growing up. I always loved it. When I was a kid, I didn’t care for the dried beef/corned beef version of cheeseball and it seemed like it was popular and if cheeseball was on the menu, it was the one! My Mother would make both […]
Deviled Eggs or Salad Eggs or Yummy Eggs
Easter is quickly approaching and surely, spring weather, coming-to-stay, isn’t far behind! I made deviled eggs this week and jotted down a recipe to share. For the most part, I’m not a cook who just whips things up by putting in a pinch of this and a cup of that and a dash of the other. […]
