Kumquat Marmalade
I LOVE this recipe, it’s so easy! You’ll have to taste as you go, make sure you don’t dump the sugar in all at once or you can end up with a super sweet marmalade. Kumquat Marmalade (Adapted from Recipe Girl) Printer Friendly Version 1 pound kumquats (more or less) 1...

Roasted Asparagus
We love asparagus, but there’s only so many times you can have them boiled with a balsamic reduction so I’m always on the look out for other options. This recipe is super easy and you can’t go wrong with the flavors of rosemary and lemon. Roasted Asparagus (Adapted...
Cracker Barrel Old Country Store Biscuits
I love working with dough and for those of you who haven’t made home made bread, this is an easy biscuit recipe you can start with to get the hang of it. The key is not to overwork the dough. I loved how flakey these came out and they only made 6 which was perfect for...
Aztec Chicken Casserole
My mom has been on a cooking frenzy lately and whipped up this easy casserole that she saw on The Chew. Since she lives 3 hours away from me she saved us some and froze it. I have to say it froze really nicely and I loved the taste. I think when we make it I’ll add...
Strawberry Butterflies
I know I’ve mentioned this before, but I LOVE Pinterest. I’m addicted, I have no shame I’ll admit it. I have over 3,000 pins spread in 45 boards, but it’s organized haha. A lot of my pinning lately takes place in the wee hours of the morning when I’m up doing...
Cherry Salad
Growing up my grandmother and mom always made Watergate Salad which is similar to this but uses pistachio pudding instead of cherry pie filling. We liked this recipe it’s easy and makes a good amount for a crowd. Cherry Salad (Adapted from Kid Giddy) Printer Friendly...
Kumquat Margarita
Hope you all had a great Cinco de Mayo yesterday. I’m a little late posting my margarita recipe, but it’s so yummy you’ll want to try it sometime this summer for sure. We really liked how refreshing it was and I love the added kumquat puree to this instead of all that...
Ravioli Casserole
This is another super easy recipe that you can toss together and stick in the freezer for when you’re short on time. We where actually given this casserole by one of our neighbors when we had the baby. I love giving food as gifts it’s something everyone loves...
Mommy and Me Mother’s Day Photo Contest
Today’s post isn’t really a food entry, but more of a plea for a vote. I hate entering voting contest, but since this one is such a short one I thought I would give it a try. You will have to register to vote, but you can easily unsubscribe once you cast your vote....
Oven Fried Catfish
We are clearing out some space in the freezer and I found some fish that we got from my dad and brother. I’m not so sure it’s catfish, it’s either that or gar, but we wanted to cook up some fried fish. I thought I would try oven frying to make it a little more...
Bacon-Cheese Pull-Aparts
I’m not one that likes to buy pre-cooked bacon so this was a stretch for me. It actually makes the dish all that much easier to whip up in a hurry. We really liked how it came out and would make it again. It’s perfect for when you have house guest or need to take an...
