There was a restaurant back in Rochester, New York that we used to call for breakfast pizzas to be made for special occasions. We had them for teacher recognition breakfasts, family brunches and sleepover breakfasts. Since we moved we have not found anything similar. I have thought about making them several times over the years…

What Do You Keep in Your Pantry?
The picture above is not my pantry but one I envy from Google. People throughout history have always had somewhere to store their food. Whether it was larders to store meats, buttery to store beer and ale or the pantry used to describe these spaces in the Medieval times to the more formal Butler’s Pantry…
Christmas Memories and Chocolate Meatball Cookies
This is a cookie from my childhood. It is still a family favorite. Of all the cookies and sweets I make this and the Apple Kuchen are the two things that always signify Christmas in our house. They are the cookie that my children ask for and family wants us to bring to family gatherings….
Christmasy Fairy Bites
Do you need a super simple cookie that tastes great and can be made in under 30 minutes? These tiny little cookies are perfect! They are tiny and offer a nice sweet bite. In February my daughter’s Girl Scout troop made Fairy Bites for one of their events. We loved these little cookie bites. So,…
Eggnog Pancakes
It is eggnog season. Eggnog is one of those things many either really love or really hate. As a drink, I do not like it at all. But, as a flavoring I like it. It is the nutmeg/cinnamon flavors I like. My kids love it and make the recipe from The Betty Crocker Kid’s Cookbook (click…
Screamin’ Sicilian Frozen Pizza – I am a Marketers Dream
We were at the grocery store the other night to pick up a couple of fresh items to use in dinners over the next few days. It was getting kind of late and I needed to go home and make dinner. It was supposed to be potatoes and ham au gratin with broccoli and cauliflower…
Traditional Craisin and Toasted Pecan Stuffing
Getting a later start to the day than usual. I went to vote this morning and the line was out the door. I have NEVER had to wait more than 10 minutes to vote. It was crazy. But, I waited and then my daughter and I went out to breakfast. So, everything is a bit…
Menu Planning, Inspiration and My Family
I have had a couple of people ask questions about my blog recently so I figured it was time to do a blog post about my blog. I am a mom. I am probably very much like most of the parents that may read this blog. I am busy volunteering in my son’s school, driving…
Putting Positive Thoughts Into the World
Overall I see myself as a rather positive person. I noticed about 2 weeks ago that reading the news, watching the news on the computer and reading all the Facebook posts regarding the election were really starting to put me into a bit of a panic state. There was so much finger-pointing and the use…
Fluffy Banana Pancakes and Zombie Dancers
We are back! We spent the weekend in Lansing so that my daughter could dance at the DYI Halloween festival. Her dance school dressed like zombies and Irish danced both days. We are not a scary Halloween family in the least. We are cute costumes and candy not zombies and witches. But, she really got…
Bavarian Slow Cooker Pork Loin
Last night at dinner my kids were talking about what meats they liked best. My son said he prefers chicken breast. My daughter said, “Want to know what part of the chicken I like best? Steak.” Yes, we have been eating a great deal of chicken and pork lately. Here is one of our most…
Buffalo Chicken French Fry Casserole
My son likes spicy dishes. We all love Buffalo chicken, but in varying versions of heat. One of the nice things about this dish is that you can vary the hotness of the dish. We generally go for a mid-range medium but my son can then spice his dish up with one of the variety…
