My goal was to have a brand spanking new Dine & Dish to show you this week, but it’s not happening quite yet. Soon…very soon. I told myself I wasn’t going to post again until the new design was live, but I can’t do that to you! I can’t keep this delicious, comforting, one pot…

A Look at the Next 365 Days {Recipe: Country Oatmeal Bread}
I grew up in a home where bread with stuff in it was the norm. Hearty whole grain bread with oatmeal, nuts, wheat bits and more… the more stuff baked inside the bread, the better. I not so affectionately called it old people bread. Oh, how I longed for soft, tender pieces of white Wonder…
Simple Joy {Recipe: Rainbow Tie-Dyed Sugar Cookies}
Is it possible to find happiness in a cookie? When that cookie is a Rainbow Tie-Dyed Sugar Cookie, the answer is a resounding yes! There’s even more joy found when the whole family gets in on the action, piecing off dough and contributing to the giant, multi-colored log of psychedelic cookie dough. Makes me happy….
Game Day With Alexia {Recipe: Sweet Potato Casserole Bites}
When I say “Game Day” you all know what I mean, right? It’s football time!! Game day extends past one day at our house to pretty much any day football is on. Some days friends or family join us in front of the TV (us meaning my husband and son) other days its just us….
Apple Cider Smoothies & a Green Mountain Coffee Discount Code
I told you earlier in the month when I introduced Hot Apple Cider Funnel Cakes that I was going to be a bit submerged in Apple Cider for a bit. Remember, I’m doing some recipe development for my friends at Green Mountain Naturals using their tasty Apple Cider K-Cups? All this fantastic apple business has…
Tis the Tweason {Recipe: Pumpkin Spice Milkshakes}
We are in a strange weather pattern here in Kansas City. In the morning, there is a slight chill in the air and I crave layers of clothing and warm cups of coffee. By the time afternoon rolls around, we’re in the 80’s and I’m tearing off my layers, cursing hormones for the flashes of…
The Particular Randomness of Spiced Pear Cake
Today I feel like being random then sharing this awesome recipe with you. So here are my random thoughts from today… When you wear a blazer as part of your outfit but the weather gets colder than blazer weather, do you wear a jacket or coat over your blazer? What’s the right thing to do…
A Breakfast Solution {Recipe: Sausage and Cheese on Homemade English Muffins}
I have a confession to make. I Love, with a capital L, Sausage Cheese McMuffins from McDonald’s. I blame it on Leah. This love began when I was pregnant with her. I couldn’t stomach meat of any kind, but for some reason craved Sausage Cheese McMuffins like they were going out of style. It was…
A Good Day {Recipe: Hot Apple Cider Funnel Cakes}
You know it’s been a good day when one of the kids walks into the house from school and says “It smells like those doughnuts from the pumpkin patch and apple orchard in here. Why does it smell like those apple doughnuts? Where are the doughnuts?” No, I didn’t make doughnuts today, but I did…
Time With Harry & David and Friends {Recipe: Red Wine Peach Vinaigrette}
A few weeks ago, I had the pleasure of heading to Medford, Oregon to spend a few days with the folks at Harry & David. First of all, as you can probably guess, I loved Oregon. Completely and totally to pieces. And yes, I may have said one or two times that I want to…
