I love comfort food. I would eat mashed potatoes with gravy and meatloaf every day for dinner for weeks on end if the rest of the family would let me. The rest of my family are dessert eaters. I hardly ever eat ice cream or cookies. I would far prefer a side of corn casserole…

Chili Fritos Walking Tacos
Chili Fritos Walking Tacos – without toppings This Memorial Day weekend was a busy one in our household. It was our 18th anniversary. We always have dreams of spending it in some exotic place or even just having dinner together. But, we usually end up celebrating similar to the way we did the year our…
Slow Cooker Chicken Cheesesteak
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…
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…
Slow Cooker Ground Beef Philly Cheesesteaks
Mondays are always the worst day of the week in our house. It just seems to be hard to get the motivation going to start the week ahead. I usually try to not schedule any appointments or meetings on Mondays because I just cannot get moving. But, because our schedules are extra busy right now…
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…
Bacon and Balsamic Onion Macaroni and Cheese
We are in all out comfort food mode in our house. It may have been the first day of Spring but last night we received word that my mother-in-law is in her final days. So, tomorrow we will head back home. I will probably not post next week but will start again just as soon…
Taco Pizza
Gahhhh! It’s been one of those days. My computer has refused to connect to the internet until now. Our whole house is wireless, which I love sometimes. But, then there are days like these when it all goes fzzzzt. Ugh! So, I am just getting around to posting – in between picking up a child…
One Skillet Tortellini & Sausage in Tomato Cream Sauce
Our family had a Snow Day yesterday. It was wonderful. We all needed that day to kind of put ourselves back together. Things have been so busy that everything was just a bit off and the forced down time let us put everything back in order. Now, if we could only find my son’s winter…
Pork Chop with Cider Gravy, Sauteed Apples and Onions
First of all I wish you could smell this dish. It made my house smell fantastic. All we needed was some really good German beer, warm German potato salad and you would have thought you were in Germany. On our recent trip to Walt Disney World we had an afternoon where we were “eating around…
Cheddar Barbecue Burger with Special Sauce
I am counting the days until the end of Christmas vacation. I LOVE having my kids home but both have been sick since Christmas Eve and it is starting to wear them and me out. It is nothing horrible but this horrible sore throat, cough and lingering cold symptoms. They have been eating lots of…
