Grandma’s White Cookies
It was a Performing Arts weekend in our house. My son participated in his first Solo/Ensemble Festival in Michigan. He did a great job and scored a I (the highest level) and earned a blue ribbon medal. He was so very proud of himself. He was playing his piece and suddenly lost where he was…
Chocolate Meatball Cookies
This is a cookie from my childhood. I remember going to my grandmother’s house every Christmas Eve when we were young children. It was always the highlight of the year for me. I knew that the house would be filled with all the wonderful smells and foods that I loved. This was one of the…
Finding Nemo – The Musical
In Animal Kingdom you can cross into Dinoland USA and find The Theater in the Wild. This theater currently houses “Finding Nemo – The Musical.” When we were there the show was playing five times during the day. Hours of showing and number of shows vary by crowd levels and seasons. Check the Time Guides…
Eggnog Cut Outs
Cut outs are like the quintessential Christmas cookies. I have so many different recipes for cut outs from my Grandma’s White Cookies which produce a puffy light cookie to Gingerbread cut outs that are crisp and fragrant. We all have different things we look for in cut outs. When I first thought about making these…
Toffee Butter Cookies
Yes, I am still feeding my family something other than cookies and candy during the holidays. Tuesday was Day of Giving. Chivos, a local pizza place, was offering large cheese, pepperoni or sausage pizzas for a minimum donation of $10 each for the first one hundred customers and all the donations went directly to The…
Salted Almond Toffee Brownies
What are the holidays without chocolate? Boring! I have always loved chocolate. Chocolate cake, chocolate cream pie, chocolates…. It never mattered to me if it was cheap chocolate or expensive chocolate as long as it was chocolate! Now that I am, shall we say, getting a bit older my tastes are changing a bit. I…
Homemade Almond Joys/Mounds
I am kicking off the Christmas season with some of our favorite cookie and candy recipes. These recipes over the next few weeks are mostly simple cookies and candy that freeze well and can be made in large batches to share with friends and family or at parties. I grew up baking our own cakes…
My Favorite Snack Place in All of Walt Disney World
Every trip we have to make a plan to stop in Epcot at the German Pavillion, at least once but usually twice, to use some of our snack credits (and some cash) to get treats at Karamell-Kuche. If you have never stopped here, as you walked through Germany you could probably smell it. Just as…
Turkey Day Meet and Greet!
I am a little late to the festivities but join in if you can! I have learned that meet and greets are great ways to grow your blog! It took me three years to get to 300 followers but I am almost to 400 in 4 weeks! Read and get to know these great bloggers.
Pork Stir Fry with Chow Mein Noodles
I served this dinner earlier in the week but left it to post today knowing that Thanksgiving Day would throw my schedule off a bit. Hope you enjoy! In cleaning out the freezer I found 4 boneless pork chops that needed to be used as soon as possible. The other night was one of our…
Thanksgiving Day
Over the years my Thanksgiving Day has changed in many ways. When I was young Thanksgiving Day was always my mother, father, brother, grandma and myself around the table. This was what we jokingly called a “large” family gathering for us. There was always the traditional dishes- turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, corn, rolls and salad….
