Spicy Pasta with Sweet Potatoes
Fall is my favorite time of the year and I love sweet potatoes. So while I’m dealing with the upper 90 degree weather and day dreaming of the Fall time, I couldn’t wait to make this dish any longer. My schedule has been crazy busy lately so I love finding quick meals...
Garlic Olive Oil Sauce with Lobster
Today’s post is a quick and easy dinner. I used home made pasta, but you could use store bought. The sauce comes together easily and doesn’t require a lot of ingredients. I added some fake lobster meat to make it a little more hardy, but you could use any protein you...
Shark Attack
I don’t know about where you’re from, but we have heat like no other heat. My pool is 94 degrees which feels like a warmed hot tub when you get in. To cool yourself off it’s better to get in the pool then get out so the little breeze we have cools you more then being...

Berry-Chocolate Fools
I’m behind on posting I’m sorry, I was out of town and had a lot of stuff to do yesterday so I’m a day late. My husband and I went on our first jugging night fishing trip. My brother has done this before. He uses old bottles then attaches a line with several hooks...
Watermelon Margarita
This was one of the cocktails I served over the weekend and it was a huge hit! I hate to buy watermelons because they are huge and it’s too much for the 2 of us so this was a nice solution to use up some of the watermelon we had leftover. Personally I think it might...
Red White and Blue Jell-O
It amazes me how you can make lots of different foods for a party and the one thing that’s the biggest hit with everyone is Jell-O! I make layered Jell-O at Christmas time (Click HERE for details) which always gets rave reviews, but you can do this for any holiday....
World’s Greatest Onion Dip
How was your 4th of July? Because of the drought Texas is having they banned fireworks this year which was kind of strange and didn’t feel like 4th of July. We still had a great weekend with friends and neighbors. One of the dips I made this weekend was an onion dip....
Panera Bread Greek Salad Dressing
I love making a good salad and it’s even better when you make the dressing yourself, instead of using store bought. I recently checked out the Panera Bread cookbook from the library and wanted to give a couple of their recipes a try since I love their restaurant. Most...
Bay Scallop Gratin
I’ve had a craving for scallops, so this is a simple easy make ahead dish you just pop in the oven right before you sit down for dinner. I was a little disappointed mine didn’t look like Ina’s (see pictures below), but the taste was nice. I had to add a little of our...
Fiber One 90 Calorie Brownies Review & Giveaway
So we all love to snack there’s no secret about that, but when you are trying to diet most of the products out there taste like cardboard. I hate to diet and try to exercise when I can, but I eat in moderation I find that’s easier then completely cutting out foods all...
