It’s Okay to Adjust a Recipe

|

I wrote this back in 2020 but I wanted to share it with y’all again because I felt it is something we all need to be reminded of. When we are looking at a recipe most people tend to follow it to the letter. I NEVER do that. Well, I rarely do that. The reason…

Chicken Pot Pie

|

I shared this recipe originally back in 2015 but honestly it is still perfect for today. There are two twice when pot pies make it into my cooking routine. When the weather turns cold (because I am a suckers for a nice hot pot pie when it is cold outside) an when I am lazy….

Family Favorite: SOS

|

I shared this recipe back in 2017 but I wanted to share it with y’all again. This is one that everyone most likely knows but does it differently. Growing up in a military family we were very familiar with the food called SOS. If you are not it is S**t on a Shingle and typically…

Cooking Ribs

|

Way back 2017 in when I shared this tip I said to boil your ribs first and you will get the best ribs ever. I have since discovered an even better way to cook them. I also have learned that boiling them first is a huge no-no. It was something I didn’t know until now.

Creme Brulee: 25 Days of Me

|

It’s day 22 of the 25 Days of Me I thought I would reshare this recipe because it actually says a lot about me and who I am. It originally posted in 2011 and didn’t give much more than the recipe. Not a back story really other than the basics. I expanded on that today.

Banana Bread

|

Today is my Banana Bread Recipe that shared backed in 2011. I must have been doing a lot of cooking and baking then. I swear it seems like I don’t now at all but I think what happens is I don’t post and share them as much anymore.

Simple Chicken Soup

|

It’s that time of the year again and I am updating and resharing this classic recipe from 2021. Chicken soup is my comfort food anytime of the year but I admit that I make it a little more often when it is cold. It is perfect for after a day of playing out in the…
