One of the most annoying/challenging/predictable parts of living in the state of Kansas is the weather. People always say “If you don’t like the weather in Kansas… just wait!” It is so predictably unpredictable. One day this week we had temperatures in the 70’s. It was so lovely. Our entire neighborhood was out playing,…

Romano Chicken Supreme
I’ll admit… I am not a risk taker. Sky diving sounds terrifying to me. Swimming with sharks? No thank you! Stock market day trading? I would probably have a heart attack with all the stress that would cause me. Nope…risk taking is not my thing. My kind of risk and about as adventurous as…

I have never been a huge fan of peanut butter cookies. It isn’t that I don’t like the flavor of them… it is just that they are so inconsistent. You never know what you are going to get when you bite into a homemade peanut butter cookie. Is it going to be crunchy? Will…

Chocolate Star Cookies Recipe
My husbands favorite cookies are these Chocolate Star Cookies, baked with love. There used to be a time when I did not see the point of making homemade cookies. Why bother with all the trouble when you can get refrigerated cookie dough? What could be easier than snipping open the package, slicing some dough…
