Tried and True Recipes any time any day…
In honor of Cinco de Mayo I am reposting this dip recipe. It is one of my favs and once I start eating it is hard to stop. Simply put together and chill, no baking required. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ I apologize that I haven’t been consistently posting recipes lately. I am currently taking four accelerated college classes, […]
We are finally enjoying spring temperatures here in MD. I am not a fan of cold weather so I am loving these warmer temps. The past few months I have really missed walking in our neighborhood without having to bundle up and sitting on our back deck to enjoy the warm sunshine, even if that […]
This diabetic vegetarian recipe doesn’t sacrifice tastiness for healthiness. My hubby loved this dish and had no clue it was light. It is chocked full of veggies so you can feel great about serving this to your family. Not only is this Spinach Alfredo Lasagna tasty and healthy, it is also easy to prepare since […]
These cookies are my favorite variation of Mom’s Famous Cookies. The basic cookie recipe is so versatile and can be used for many different flavors of cookies by adding different flavored chips, dry fruit, or nuts. Buon Appetito!

The combination of oatmeal, chocolate, and caramel make these bars worthy of 5 stars. While making these bars, I like to practice saying carmelitas in a Spanish accent. My boys just look at me like I am weird. That’s ok, I am comfortable with my weirdness. 🙂 Buon Appetito!
I am getting really excited about Thanksgiving, and believe it or not it is not just because of the food. This year we are doing something that I have always wanted to do on Thanksgiving. Instead of spending the entire day focused on gluttony we are planning to focus on others for a bit and […]
Would you like a super easy knock-your-socks off dessert? Well, look no further than these blonde Bayou Brownies. The first time I baked these my 16 year old son loved them so much he had to practice some severe self control to keep from eating 1/2 the pan. When I originally made these I didn’t […]
This chocolate pecan pie is my favorite variation of the Southern classic, Pecan Pie. Several years ago when I was a Southern Living at Home consultant one of my hostesses served this pie at her home party and I fell in love! I prefer this over regular pecan pie any day. This is would be […]
