Ham & Cheese Frittata
Some days you just need to get dinner on the table quickly. Breakfast for dinner is an easy way to have dinner on the table in about 30 minutes. The kids love eggs and I love how easy this is to make. I have been doing a bit of research into specific types of dishes…
Asian Sticky Grilled Pork Loin
Tax season is over. I am hoping life will now settle down. The problem is all the appointment that I have been putting off for the last two months have to be done now so there are doctors appointments, dentist appointments, eye appointments, hearing appointments and hair appointments all within the next two to three…
Irish Nachos
It seems like every day it gets harder and harder to blog. In the beginning it was easy and I seemed to have too many things I wanted to write about. Lately, I seem to be doing more and writing less. I am still trying to keep a shortened version of our Dinner Game going…
My Favorite Words and Simple Swedish Meatballs
When we were little my brother used to have a list of words that would just make him giggle if he heard them. Cadet, trousers, pineapple… I never really understood it. I knew there were words I didn’t like to use but nothing that I thought was overly funny or wonderful about any word. I…

Mexican Irish Nachos

Slow Cooker Mexican Spiced Boneless Pork Ribs
We’re having a heat wave! Well, it really is 10 degrees out but the sun is shining! That makes all the difference in the world. Everyone I have met today seems in a good mood. Usually people have their heads bowed and their hands shoved in their pockets and are doing the quick shuffle as…
Italian Sausage Patty Melt
The “Winter Blues” have definitely taken over. I hate being cold. The perfect temperature for me is between 67 and 72 outside. The -4 degree temperatures are awful! I don’t like snow, other than at Christmas. Even two weeks in Florida did not help as we came back to record cold temperatures. So, the desire…
Slow Cooker Gumbo with Quinoa
I missed a whole day yesterday. Because of a perfect storm of events I ended up staying in bed all day yesterday. Which sounds perfect to most moms but the stomach flu that accompanied the day was awful. I was the last to get it in our family and actually thought my Super Mom powers…
Slow Cooker Korean Pork Tacos
Getting back into the “real” world after vacation has been tough. The bitter cold and snow is just making things worse. I don’t like being cold so I tend to hibernate unless I really have to go out. I needed to pick up my son at school so I stopped at the grocery store for…
Boneless Barbecue Pork Ribs
I am all about saving money on my food bills. Pork and chicken tend to be the cheaper cuts of meat right now in our area. So, we eat lots of pork and chicken. I try to cook it a bit differently each time so my family does not realize they are eating the same…
