I love the end of the school year. It cannot come soon enough for us. We love being home together for three months. But, for the next 7 school days life is hectic. I am doing the big change over in clothes, coats and shoes. I put everything in bins sorted by person. So when…

Cheese Stuffed Hamburgers with Oven Baked Sweet Potato Chips
This is a tough one today. I am just not feeling like sitting down and actually writing. That is rare for me. I love to get up and start writing about food and my family. Today started with an appointment and then seemed to go downhill from there. My routine is off which sets my…
Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken
I realized as I looked through my Pinterest account for dinner inspirations that most of my pins lately have been Chinese/Asian influenced dishes. I think because they are usually fairly simple to prepare and I can add vegetables of my choosing as a side I am drawn to them. This Baked Sweet and Sour Chicken…
Baked Buffalo Chicken Wings
Well, this is one more in our junk food bonanza week. I guess it is just slightly a step up from deep-fried chicken wings. I know this is the time of year everyone starts their resolutions to only eat salads for dinner or eat 7 servings of fruit and vegetables per day but I have…
Lemon Butter Tilapia
Some nights I am fighting myself to find something quick and fairly healthy to feed my children. I am just like every other mom in the world, busy. Tonight’s dinner was tough. I am trying to get ready for Thanksgiving, to go away for a few days and keep the kids on schedule for their…
Country Pork Ribs over Smashed Potatoes
My kids LOVE ribs. I think they are second choice only to Chinese take-out if we tell them we are eating out. I have been working on cooking them over the last few months. The types of sauces, cooking methods and types of ribs are mind-boggling. I have just started trying a bit of this…
Crunchy Baked Tilapia
When I make fish for dinner it is usually Tilapia because it tends to be a milder fish and it is often on sale at our local grocery store. I can usually get a pound for less than $3.00. I usually have 2-3 lbs. in my freezer at any given time. It is my goal…
Pepperoni Pizza Stuffed Chicken
Chicken is the meat of August I guess. Boneless, skinless chicken breasts were $1.69 a pound on sale so of course I had to buy over 12 pounds of them. I never could resist a sale. For some women it is shoes, for me it is meat. So I have cut some up into chunks,…
Baked Boneless Pork Chops
First off this is a horrible picture for such a delicious dish. For some reason my camera refused to focus well and the dish is mostly beige so it was really hard to get everything in focus especially against my white plates. But, other than being a beige dish this was actually a really delicious…
Zucchini/Squash Parmesan Crisps
I am fortunate in that my children really do like most vegetables. But, I am searching for new ways to serve them as we are getting tired of the same boiled or roasted vegetables over and over again. I saw this recipe on Pintrest and had to give it a try. The Zucchini Parmesan Crisps…
