We were working with one car this past week. In a larger city it wouldn’t be so bad. Buses, taxis, even friends would be able to help us. But after our car was towed Monday night were still waiting for them to fix/replace the fuel pump on Friday. Really, it takes this long? But, in…

Banana Pancakes with Pecans
This post is really late today. I write usually the day I post which means I need to be organized and really stay on top of everything. Once in a while I get a bit ahead of myself but for the most part I wake up and start with whatever idea I had jotted down…
Carrot Cake Waffles with Cream Cheese Drizzle
I have been making vegetarian dishes that speak to me. Meaning, they have no mushrooms or what I consider “weird” things that I don’t really want to eat. I am going to slowly start branching out next week. I don’t know if I will ever overcome my disdain of olives (green, black and Kalamata) and…
Sour Cream Coffee Cake with Crumb Topping
I don’t make desserts or sweets very often. When I do the kids think it is such a special treat. I am not a baker. Cooking and baking are two totally different things. With baking your measurements have to be precise otherwise the science of having a cake raise or hold together as it bakes…
Ham and Potato Egg Bake
It is still October like weather here in Southwest Michigan even though the calendar says it is early July. The high today was low 60s and overnight it was in the high 40s. Ick. Lake Michigan temps are still in the 50s. It has not been warm enough, long enough to get the water warm….
Brown Butter Pecan Pancakes – The End of School is Near!
I am one of those moms that hates when the kids go back to school but loves when summer break begins. I love having the kids home with me. I have always been like that since they were little. I like my breaks from them now and then but they very rarely were ever away…
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…
All-Star Music Intermission Food Court – Breakfast
It has been several years since we have stayed at the All-Star Music Resort in Walt Disney World. As our family has grown and changed so has our choice of resorts. This year we decided to host a family reunion in Walt Disney World and All-Star Music seemed the perfect fit for everyone. My parents…
A Valentine’s Day Dinner with Love
When you think of Valentine’s Day dinners you do not typically think of pancakes. Normally, we don’t either. But, this dinner had great significance for us. This was our 20th Valentine’s Day together. Twenty years ago we were young, broke and incredibly in love. For our first Valentine’s Day my gift was a box of…
Smoked Sausage Hash with Fried Eggs
I am still cleaning out my pantry and freezer with a “No Buy January.” Except for some fresh produce and dairy I am hoping to have both my freezer and pantry empty by the end of January. My refrigerator is pretty sparse right now and I am working on weeding out all the condiment and…
Cheesy Scrambled Eggs or What Happens When I Don’t Follow the Plan
Yesterday was one of those days that I don’t wish to repeat for quite a long time. In my brilliance I scheduled 3 doctor appointments (2 of which are out-of-town 35 minutes away), a cello lesson for my son and a library program for him all on the same day. Much of the day was…
Cinnamon French Toast Bake
We love our breakfast casseroles. I love that I can make it the night before and just pop them in the oven the next morning. This is our favorite for New Year’s Day because no matter what time we get up breakfast can be on the table in about an hour. My kids love this…
