I have one child that is all about creativity, dance and emotion. I have a child who is a concrete thinker driven by facts, logic and little emotion. I am trying to help each child find the balance to their strengths. It is difficult at times. We don’t like to do things that are difficult…

French Bread Pizzas – Make Your Own Pizza Buffet
We went grocery shopping last night, $544. Ugh. Yes, most of it is stock-up for the month but I still have to buy fresh vegetables and fruit, which we are eating a TON of right now, and some milk each week. The part that gets me is everything has gone up again. I was looking…
Simple Pan Fried Chicken Sandwich
There are days that dinner needs to be simple and on the table quickly. This was one of those nights. We spent the evening at the beach and were sitting down to dinner at 9:00 pm. This meal took 15 minutes to put together. We could have gone to a Drive Through for chicken sandwiches…
Chicken Salad Sandwiches
Now that my children are home and starting to adjust back to real life I have to tell you how much I love their camp. We have been planning for two years, since my daughter first went to Blue Lake Fine Arts Camp, that we would send both children at the same time when our…
Sesame Garlic Beef Tacos
We are getting ready to head to Walt Disney World soon. This mother-daughter trip just doesn’t seem real. I know that we received this wonderful suitcase from American Tourister (#PackMoreFun) and Disney Social Media Moms Conference (#DisneySMMC) to start packing our bags, but still it seems surreal. From the pictures above you can see what…
Greek Pizzas with Tzatiki
We are getting back into the warmer days slowly. On top of all the school and community events my children have we are wanting to spend more time outside. That means dinner is getting later and later. I love that this meal took less than 30 minutes to have on the table and I made…
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 Pulled Pork Sandwiches
Now that the weather has turned to the bitter cold of January (-15 windchill yesterday) my slow cooker is going to be front and center for dinners. Yesterday I took a pork roast from the freezer and began to ponder what I could do with it. I haven’t done a pulled pork sandwich yet so…
Hot Italian Sandwich Bites
I have recently been trying to rely more on my old cookbooks and recipe cards (what we used in the days before Pinterest). I love my cookbooks. I have many from the 1950’s, 1960’s and little pamphlets put out by companies to promote their products. I love reading them. Some of the recipes especially the…
Cheesy Sloppy Joe Eggrolls
Day three without a kitchen sink. It is now glued back on but it needs to dry for 48 hours and then be sealed. I am getting really tired of not having a sink and running water in the sink. I can use my dishwasher but I don’t put pots and pans in it. So,…
Sloppy Joe over Cheesy Cornmeal Waffle
My new waffle maker came today so of course I have to immediately try it out. I knew I wanted something unique and savory to try so this is what I created. The meat of the day was the ground beef my daughter chose from the freezer and I immediately thought of Sloppy Joes like…
Slow Cooker Chicken Caesar Salad Sandwiches
This recipe is one I have had sitting in my file box for a while. It is SUPER simple and needs very few ingredients. Once you add the Caesar dressing to the chicken dinner can be on the table within 30 minutes. Verdict: Both kids gobbled this meal up. We were going out to dinner…
