One thing my family can’t live without is whip cream. During the winter we go through quite a bit, but I can’t tell you how much we go through during the summer. Let’s not forget that fresh berries are a hot commodity around our house! I try my best to always have a batch of homemade whip cream on hand because it just can’t be beat. (Fresh berries + homemade… Continue Reading
Grilled Chicken & Broccoli Pasta Salad
The summer season is here and for many of us it means time for backyard BBQ’s and potlucks. Backyard BBQ’s and potlucks are my favorite time to try out new recipes and experiment on the guests. If I go home with an empty bowl then it was a hit and a full bowl means that I should never attempt that recipe again. Great gauge right? This grilled chicken & broccoli… Continue Reading

It’s hard to believe summer is so close! As summer quickly approaches, I’m working on getting myself prepared for warmer weather with this blackberry lemonade recipe.

How To Make Iced Coffee
This post on how to make iced coffee is brought to you on behalf of my partnership with Hamilton Beach. The thoughts and opinions below are my own and I was not influenced in any way by this partnership.

Baked Carrot Cake Donut
When I was younger my mom would make us donuts as a treat. She didn’t make them often but when she did we would all do just about anything to get one hot out of the fryer. Generally they were dipped in a cinnamon sugar mix or powdered sugar but once in awhile she would tempt us with a chocolate glazed cake donut. Man they were delicious! As I get… Continue Reading
Chocolate French Macaron Recipe with Toffee
I grew up baking macaroons once in a while and was intrigued when I ran across a new cookie called a macaron. At first I swore it was a typo but the macaron didn’t look a thing like what I had grown up eating, nor did it taste the same. Which is better? Well I must say I’m pretty partial to this Chocolate French Macaron Recipe that you dip in… Continue Reading

Ginger Chicken Stir Fry
I don’t know about you for sure but I love take-out! It often gives me a chance to have things prepared quickly that I don’t often get at home. However, the problem with this for me is that I don’t live any place near a take-out restaurant. It’s 25 miles to the nearest grocery store so I’m sure you can imagine how far I must go to get some good take-out, which means… Continue Reading

Toasted Corn Salad With Bacon
During the summer I try to host several parties and attend even more of them. Much to my husband’s dismay I’m a social bug and don’t truly need a reason to have a party other than the day ends in “y”. The hardest part about throwing and attending parties for me? Planning a menu or what I’m going to take. While I admit I love to wow people I don’t… Continue Reading
