Bourbon Pecan Brie Puffed Pastries
Around the holidays it’s important to have some good appetizers on hand and the ones you can prep ahead of time are even better. I made these for Thanksgiving and popped them in the oven so we had something to snack on while we finished up all the main dish details....
Homemade Holiday Lollipops
I forgot to post this last year with time sneaking up on me quickly as I was working on gift baskets. These where a huge hit and they are easy to make. An added bonus is hearing kids say “OMG you know how to make lollipops”. You can make them without sticks and any...
Pumpkin Hot Chocolate
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! We are taking it easy today and not doing any of the Black Friday shopping. As I sit and relax I’m sipping on this yummy pumpkin hot chocolate. I originally tested this recipe out on the moms in our play group and it seemed...
Whiskey-Glazed Sweet Potatoes

Chocolate Pumpkin Tiramisu

Pecan Pie Cupcakes
One of my hubby’s favorite things about the holiday’s with my family is the pecan pie. It’s one of the things he says “your mom makes it better then you do” so I have given up making it for him. I thought I would give these cupcakes a try to bring him back on my side....
Butternut Squash & Short Rib Chili
I’ve been using up some meat in the freezer that we got from our Steer purchase this year. I found a package of boneless short ribs and thought I would give this chili a try. My hubby usually makes the annual chili because his comes out really good, but before he...
Maggiano’s Mini Crab Cakes
One thing we love to splurge on when we go out for a nice dinner is crab cakes. The problem is that most are just all bread and very little crab. This recipe comes close to one of our favorites we have had over the years. The filling is basic and really shows off the...
Matcha DNA Certified Organic Matcha Tea Review
Lately I’ve been getting more into trying more teas rather then coffee loaded with sugar and creamer. I’m still learning at how long you steep a tea bag, but when it comes in a nice single serving packet and all you have to do is add hot water, I’m all over it. I...
Easy Cheese Danish

Rummy Mummy Cocktail
I loved this cocktail! It’s great because it’ll pass as a Halloween Mummy cocktail or a snow white Christmas cocktail. It’s easy to make ahead of time which I love and then your guest pour as they need a refill. Even with all the alcohol in the drink it’s really...
