Three Bean Vegetarian Chili

Three Bean Vegetarian Chili with Meat

It can be hard to cook for my family.  Everyone likes different styles of cooking.  Davis is a meat and potatoes guy.  Olivia is vegetarian.  My mom likes casseroles and I like any of it. Today I made a vegetarian chili so that everyone could embellish it to suit their own taste.  Davis added meat.  Olivia […]

Gracious New Year's Resolution

New Year’s Resolution

Did you make a New Year’s Resolution? I did not. However, today I received an email from a colleague and she is having her students do a one word resolution.  Sounded interesting to me.  There is a hashtag on Twitter where people are sharing their one word resolutions.  It is #myoneword.  The purpose is to […]

Party Mix

Party Mix

I enjoy homemade Party Mix.  I like the taste but I also have many memories tied to it. Growing up we seemed to only make it around Christmas time but I personally have been known to make it other times in the year, too. I guess I’m living on the edge. There aren’t really as […]

Cupcake Fail

In response to a reader from the Monkey Bread Post I made some lower carb carrot cupcakes with cream cheese frosting for the blog today.

Chicken Soup and Hallmark Movies

I’m still taking down decorations, cleaning house, and watching Hallmark movies. Anyone else out there seen all of them like I have?  You have to ask…do parents really give their single daughters such a hard time that they need to rent boyfriends for the holidays?  Does every small town love Christmas?  If you sit beside […]

Walk of Doom

I want to share these photos of a walk I took the other day.  I have been cooped up inside decorating, undecorating, cooking, or shopping so I decided to get outside and enjoy our unseasonably warm weather.  I went to Lake Peachtree and took a walk around the lake. It is typically about an hour walk […]

Monkey Bread

Monkey Bread with Sass

Years ago I tried Monkey Bread and thought it was the greatest treat ever.  Then as all things go, people weren’t content with this humble little pull-apart bread and soon created Gorilla Bread.  My friend Gina brought Gorilla Bread to one of our friend gatherings and we have all been hooked ever since. Today I […]

Christmas 2016

No complaints around here from Christmas.  We showered each other with gifts and we spent time with the family on Christmas day.  Here are a few highlights. We start our morning with a present hunt. 7:30 was our Christmas wake-up time this year.   Each year, I hide 12 of their gifts with an ornament […]
