I have been reading quite a few blogs lately and some of them scare me a bit. I am a bad mom. I didn’t know it before I read all these blogs. I let my children eat candy. I don’t buy organic vegetables. I don’t check their homework every night. I may be negligent because…

Mexican Casserole – Cinco de Mayo
We spent the last weekend in Milwaukee, Wisconsin at two Irish Dance Feis. We had been once before but only for one night. This time we spent two nights and had a bit of time to explore. We ended up at a German Beer Haus that was wonderful. Long family style tables with great beer…
Slow Cooker Chicken and Stuffing
Back to school and after school practices and meetings. The last six weeks of school is going to be crazy. My daughter is adding another day of dance in Kalamazoo, MI which means another hour drive each way. I love that we can do this but three-four days a week in the evenings are tough. …
Life, Death and Chicken Yakisoba
I decided to take a two-week hiatus recently with the passing of my mother-in-law. She lived a long beautiful life but death, even when expected, is never easy. The day we had been waiting for had arrived about 2 weeks ago. We got the call that my mother-in-law was near the end and we should…
Slow Cooker Jambalaya
Most of my dinner photographs are pretty awful. I am not a photographer. This has to be one of the worst pictures I have ever posted. This was taken after dinner when I realized I forgot to take a picture and there was just a little bit of Jambalaya left in the bottom of the…
Slow Cooker Cheesy Chicken and Rice
Back to my slow cooker! I love this thing. It’s that busy time of year and with a teacher conference, a dentist appointment, volunteering at the school book fair and working so dinner needed to be quick and easy. I found this recipe for Cheesy Chicken & Rice from kmhoho.wordpress.com and as I read it…
Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie
I love, love, love, love my slow cooker. I love that I can put the ingredients in the crock in the morning and by dinner time I have this delicious dish. Everyone came in the house this evening and commented on how wonderful dinner smelled. If you are not using your slow cooker at least…
Chicken Stir Fry
Another simple way to add lots of veggies to my dinners is with Asian inspired dishes. I love that I can mix up the recipe I found for Chicken Stir Fry from Hoosier Family Love.com and have it ready fairly quickly. The most strenuous part of the recipe is chopping the vegetables. For my heartier…
Chicken Fried Rice
This is my new wok that I got for Christmas. I LOVE IT! Yes, I am shouting. I also have a large skillet by the same company. I love that I can take it from stove top to oven. It has a ceramic base that is easy to keep clean and the food doesn’t stick….
Herbed Chicken and Broccoli Casserole
This is my last casserole until after Christmas. Then I will have to see what I can do with all the leftovers I am sure we will have! Last night’s dinner started out with as Cheesy Chicken Ranch Casserole from the Finding Joy in the Kitchen.com. Of course I didn’t have half of the ingredients…
Chicken Parmigiana with Sauce
It has been ages since I made Chicken Parmigiana. Since my son has been gluten-free almost 5 years ago now I try to limit having to make two meals every night when I can. I have learned to “adapt” our dinners for him so I usually divide everything without gluten into 1/3 for him and…
Loaded French Fry Casserole with Buffalo Chicken
I am still in a comfort food mood. It has now been raining for 7 days with occasional breaks but overall it is cold, rainy and well, just plain icky out. My comfort foods are meatloaf, mashed potatoes and anything with tons of melted cheese and bacon. This fits the last group. It was so…
