Unfrosted Cinnamon Roll I don’t bake. I love to cook but baking is too exacting for me. You have to be precise in your measurements or it doesn’t rise or completely crumbles. For my daughter’s slumber party I wanted to make a special breakfast so I found the EASIEST Breadmaker Cinnamon Rolls I could find…

Barbecue Cowboy Casserole
After a doctor appointment we needed to decide if my daughter was going to dance class last night. She had just been seen by our pediatrician who diagnosed her with problems in her Flexor from overuse. The pediatrician recommended physical therapy and to cut back a bit on dance class. The doctor told her that…
Emeril’s Seafood Mac and Cheese
Our lives are undergoing another shift soon. My children will move up from elementary school to middle school and from middle school to high school. I don’t know how this could be happening. I swear they just entered pre-school yesterday. Another shift is that my daughter, the one going into high school, has decided to…
Pork Chops with Onion Gravy
I love dinners like this because you can start making them and have dinner on the table in about 30 minutes. I definitely need more of these as the month goes on. There seems to be less and less time in the day to fit everything in. Verdict: Even my little onion haters liked this…
Grilled Ham with Pineapple Salsa
I am not an adventurous eater. I think I want to make my children better about tasting new foods because I am so reluctant to do so. I never ate broccoli until I was in college. I found out I LOVED it if it is cooked properly. But, it was green, smelled funny and no…
Slow Cooker Moroccan Chicken
Ever have one of those days? Well, this is it for me. After dance class last night I came home and we had dinner, helped the kids with their homework, took a ride down by the beach to watch the sunset. It was a really great evening. This morning I get up and can’t find…
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 Sweet and Savory Boneless Pork Chops Meal
Last night I needed a meal that would be ready after my son’s musical program at school. I knew we would not have enough time for a real meal beforehand so I wanted it to be ready at 6:30 pm. I just wanted to add a salad and be ready to sit at the table…
Simple Cheesy Baked Rigatoni with Meatballs
I let my kids pick their birthday dinner each year. My son asked for pasta and sauce. His sister was totally annoyed, “He wants spaghetti and sauce? I am planning on a German dinner with braised red cabbage, German potato salad and brats with sauerkraut. He wants spaghetti?” She was not impressed in the least….
Ham & Cheese Mashed Potato Pancakes
I needed a quick and easy dish for dinner last night as I knew we had to be out of the house one hour after getting home from school. I searched my refrigerator and knew I needed to finish off the last of the ham, vegetables and mashed potatoes leftover from Easter Dinner. What do…
My 300th Post – Chinese Casserole
I knew this post was coming and I thought I would make a special dinner to celebrate. But, just like every other mom I know, it was a busy night last night and we are low on funds, being the end of the month and all, so I went with what I had on…
