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…

Cheesy Barbecue Chicken and Biscuit Casserole
I am always looking for easy, tasty ways to get dinner on the table as quickly as possible. I try not to use prepared items in my cooking for the most part. I have found simple exchanges for canned soups, canned biscuits and bottled sauces. But, sometimes a mom has to do what a mom…
Chicken Enchilada Verde
As I look around my house I realize how busy life has been over the last month. Nothing is seriously wrong but there are baskets of laundry to be folded, clean dishes to put away, and tables to be dusted. It seems that just like everyone else we are running from morning until late in…
Creamy Chicken and Stuffing with State Testing
My daughter had her EXPLORE test this morning. Because she is in Virtual School we had to drive to a town about 40 minutes away for her to take the test. This is her first year in Virtual School so it has been a huge learning curve for us. She was homeschooled in New York…
Skillet Chicken and Broccoli with Cheese
The weather still is yucky here and it seems like it is not going to return to “normal” any time soon. The high temperatures don’t even break half of what the average normal temperatures are supposed to be this time of year. Each day I hear the meteorologist say, “There is no end in sight…
Tuscan Chicken Skillet Dinner
So after vacation my cupboards are still pretty bare. I have some meat left in the freezer but as it has been about 10 degrees most of the day I have not wanted to go out grocery shopping. We picked up a few things on the way home but I need to get creative for…
Chicken St. George
We have been on vacation for the past two weeks and just arrived home last night. It was a beautiful two weeks with only 1 1/2 days of rain and temperatures in my favorite area of 70 to 75 degrees just about every day. Sunshine was plentiful and I felt amazing. This is what we…
Smothered Chicken Casserole
We are coming to the end of “N0-Buy” January in our house. That means lots of chicken and potatoes. Normally I serve lots of chicken but potatoes, especially white potatoes, are not used very often by us. That is probably why I have so many to use up now. “No-Buy” January is never easy but…
Cheesy Quinoa, Chicken, and Broccoli Casserole
Wow, another snow day today! That makes three this week. I need to keep everyone focused and moving forward because changes of schedule in our house can be difficult. They start to sleep in later, which causes them to stay up later, so they sleep in later…. Until their days and nights are flipped. So,…
Traditional Chicken Pot Pie
January is a “No Buy” month in our house. Except for fresh produce and dairy, which I am trying to keep to a minimum, I want to complete the first of my clean out the freezer challenges for the year and try to save money towards vacation. So, the first thing I found in my…
Cheesy Pesto Chicken and Garlic Crispy Red Potatoes
I am a “Real Mom” home cook. I am not trained in any form of cooking or baking. I have two children and a spouse that like to be fed each day and I try to accommodate them the best I can. We have dance lessons, cello lessons, Science Olympics, Lego Robotics and library groups…
Chicken Fajita Stuffed Peppers
Mostly our weekends have been spent at Feises (Irish dance competitions) but now our son had his First Lego League competition this past weekend in Grand Rapids, MI. We knew nothing about First Lego League. We knew that he was a programmer but beyond that nothing. We learned quite a bit this weekend. I have…
