Super Simple Supper (Recipe: Walking Tacos)
Sometimes it is the most simple of ideas that makes you slap your forehead and say, “Duh… why didn’t I think of that?” That is how I feel about this recipe for Walking Tacos. Such a simple idea, inspired by a day at the county fair. School will be starting again in just a short…
Dinner Chaos (Recipe: Paula Deen’s Skillet Ravioli)
When you are a mom, especially with a curious and very busy toddler on your hands, turning your back for just a few minutes can lead to lots of extra work for you. This is a picture of Leah after she decided to eat a Red Crayola Marker (thankfully non-toxic) for dinner while I was…
Ugly Food (Recipe: Garlic Chicken Legs for the Crockpot / Slow Cooker)
Let’s face it everyone… chicken legs are ugly. Really, there is nothing at all picturesque about a chicken leg sitting on a plate. In fact, I almost nixed sharing this recipe with you for two main reasons. This is a delicious recipe, however it comes no where close to the amazing Oven Baked Chicken Legs…
An Old Favorite (Recipe: Grilled Pork Chops with Garlic Lime Sauce)

Why Bother Blogging? (Recipe – Italian Style Rice & Beans)
I just returned from the beautiful Canyons Resort in Park City, UT where I was fortunate enough to attend the first annual Evo ’10 Conference (Foodies – I know you want to think that Evo has something to do with Extra Virgin Olive Oil, but it is really The Evolution of Women in Social Media)….

Beringer Great Steak Challenge Giveaway (Recipe: Strawberry Mint Gelato)
Every summer, I say I’m going to throw a Summer Solstice party, and every summer Summer Solstice sneaks up on me and I totally miss it. Summer flies faster than any other season of the year. Winter tends to crawl along, Spring flows along at a normal pace, Fall kicks in and always seems to…
