Food, Crafts and Fun
Every month I get excited about getting my blog assignment from Debbi, my group’s leader for the Secret Recipe Club. I love clicking on the link and then getting immersed in a blog filled with deliciousness and then trying to narrow it down to one recipe to make. This month was a tough one for […]

Have you heard of They are new to me too. Cute name, right? But what makes Zupers so special? Holy smokes. Where do I even start? I went to their website and asked my daughter which shorts she wanted to try. She’s such a picky girl when it comes to the clothes she wears. Not […]

I asked my daughter what dessert she wanted to serve at her birthday party. She isn’t much of a cake fan so I knew she would want something different. She immediately said “Gingersnap Cookies. The kind that Gramma made.” My Mom made Snickernaps awhile back and my and I loved them. They were the perfect […]

Who here is exhausted? Show of hands, please? With My daughter’s birthday last week and St. Patty’s Day and Easter coming up, oh yeah, and spring break? I’m pooped. Maybe if I didn’t try to cram a million things into each day. But then seriously, how much fun would that be? I know me. I’d […]

I’ve had this recipe pinned since October. They were titled How the Grinch Crinkled Christmas Cookies. Loved it! So of course, I wanted to make them, but I never got around to. So now it’s March and I thought they were a perfect St. Patty’s day cookie. St. Patrick’s Day Crinkle Cookies Source: Delicious […]

I’m a huge mashed potato fan. Add lots of great things to them like bacon or cheese, and I’m one happy camper. Awhile back a friend of mine told me she added mashed cauliflower to her mashed potatoes to add some more vitamins. I figured why not, I’d give it a try. They were delicious! I […]

My daughter was invited to a birthday party last weekend. The little girl said she didn’t want any gifts. Instead, she wanted money to help out the local pet store that recently burned to the ground. What a sweet thing! So we put some money in an envelope and my daughter used one of our […]

How do you say happy birthday to a far away friend or relative? Do you call? Send an email? Maybe mail them a card or gift? How about sending them them their very own piece of birthday cake? In. The. Mail! A mailable slice of birthday cake! And we all know I love mail. […]

I am totally loving all of the great April Fool’s Day things people have posted the past couple of weeks! I love the pranks but mostly I love the fun food. You didn’t miss our Fakin’ and Eggs I hope! (We’re all about fun food at our house!) So we wanted to pack in two […]
I saw this “recipe” in the Family Fun magazine while at the Doctor’s office and thought I’d give it a try. Anything to make dinner time fun, right? My kids LOVED it! And it was easy to make. I took hot dogs and cut them into 4 pieces. Then I took raw spaghetti noodles and […]
I have a confession to make. You know those little recipe books that you always see in the check out stand? They are usually themed – Halloween, Christmas, cookies, crockpot recipes. You know the ones. I am addicted to them. Yep, I said it out loud. I love them. I love looking through them and […]
So what do you think? Have we been doing it up, Thanksgiving style? (Maybe not if you’re a grown up. But we don’t really have one of those in our house.) =o) But my kids have loved all the fun treats we’ve made so far. We tried our first Turkey Cookie. Then we sugar-ed it […]
I have a little thing about vampires. I was about to write “I’m embarrassed to say” but I’m not. What the heck. I’m obsessed. I said it. Seriously, I am. It all started with the Twilight books and has gone a little out of control since. =o) If you need to know a good book […]
I have decided that April Fools Day is one of my favorite holidays. Sounds a little strange maybe but fun food and me? Yep, we go together like peanut butter and jelly. And April Fools Day screams fun food. So what do you think about our Deviled Eggs? Who doesn’t love deviled eggs, right? Oh […]
I can’t believe it’s the middle of October and I haven’t even posted a Halloween recipe or crafts yet. Ugh. Life is a little overwhelming right now but I’ve decided to kick it into gear and get my Halloween on. So the first Halloween recipe for this year is for Candy Corn Cookies. Aren’t they […]
I’m totally having fun with this whole fun food for dinner Saturday night. I love seeing my kid’s faces when I put their plate on the table. I love hearing “no way. Great job, Mom.” It makes my entire day! And how could I not make this for Halloween?!?! I’m not sure where I saw […]
