Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
Over the weekend, we had plans to go apple picking but Cooper wasn't feeling 100% and we decided not to go. I had plans to make applesauce and start making some other treats with apples, so I stopped a fruit stand along the side of the road and picked up a basket of Laura Red… Continue reading Apple Muffins {Clean}

I have been drooling over Emily's blog for months and was hoping I would be assigned her blog soon. I have a list of about 25 different recipes I want to make but… Continue reading Fudge Brownies – The Secret Recipe Club
It's time for the monthly installment of The Salad Bar Monthly Blogging Group.Each month, a theme is assigned and there's pretty much free reign to make a salad that highlights the featured ingredient or salad type. This month's theme was Asian inspired salads. There's so many ways to follow this theme but I decided to… Continue reading Crunchy Quinoa Salad #TheSaladBar
I bought a HUGE head of cauliflower last week and after making half of it for dinner one night, I needed to figure out a different way to use up the rest of it. I was thinking of roasting it, but it's been a little hot and humid, so I didn't want to turn the… Continue reading Cheesy Cauliflower Patties
Welcome to the second month of Fill the Cookie Jar! This month's theme was fall cookies. I'm so ready for fall but this past weekend we had a burst of summer that we haven't dealt with much this year...not really the ideal time to be baking fall cookies. I'm so ready for fall and it's definitely feeling… Continue reading Pumpkin Molasses Cookies #FilltheCookieJar

Thankfully we're only moving a short distance away but it's still been a little of… Continue reading Mexican Stuffed Peppers
The theme for August's The Salad Bar group was AVOCADO. I like avocados but I don't really do more than add slices to a salad or on a black bean burger. I struggled to find something this month and then I ran across several recipes for avocado egg salad. I make a very quick egg salad… Continue reading Avocado Egg Salad #TheSaladBar
I had all intentions of getting this post up earlier but the hard drive on my computer crashed while I was downloading photos of this recipe. NO!!!!! Not what I need right now! I had designed these really cute we've moved post cards to announce our new address and they're gone. Now we need to… Continue reading Edamame Basil Hummus
I was in Denver last week for a convention for work and had a great time! I got to caught up with old coworkers, business associates and meet a few friends for dinner and drinks. I had a great time and wish I would have been able to explore the city a little more. Since… Continue reading Black Bottom Pie – The Secret Recipe Club
I love a good cobbler and this one is no exception! The combination of the tart blueberries and sweet nectarines and then topped with a biscuit. I made them in ramekins but it would be great in a baking dish to take to a dinner party. It's simple but the results make it totally worth… Continue reading Blueberry-Nectarine Cobbler
