We rarely have company, but I love the IDEA of entertaining! I have so many serving bowls and platters…pitchers, punch bowls…various crock pots…YOU NAME IT! The thing is, entertaining doesn’t have to be difficult.
Coupons & Convenience
I had a short list, so my store run should have only taken a few minutes. I was wrong! Lol I got caught up in Dollar General and found all kinds of goodies.
Drinking Holidays
You may be wondering what drinking holidays are. You may also be wondering how a “drinking holiday” is different from any other holiday! I’ll tell you… Continue reading “Drinking Holidays”
Citrus Chicken Thighs & Accompaniments
Chicken, rice, and beans. Sounds simple, right? Lucky for you, these foods can be as simple or complex as you’d like! I think this recipe is a happy medium.
Three Easy Meals
I have to admit from the start, these are meal ideas…not exactly full recipes. I’ve been super busy the past couple of weeks, but I still want to share with you! Here are three relatively quick, easy meals.
Sunday Brunch
This Sunday I decided to switch up my usual breakfast routine. Since I didn’t get around to cooking until around 10:00, and the meal was a bit more hearty, let’s just call it brunch. Here’s how I prepared our steak, eggs, and potatoes.
Birthday!!!
Our baby turned TWO this week! We’re having a party with family and friends this weekend, but we still wanted to do something special for him on his actual birthday. I’m still a relatively new to this, so I tried out my “crafty mom” skills.
Weekend Exploring
You may or may not notice by looking at my ingredient pics, but I mostly shop at Aldi! (I LOVE that store…another post for another day.) However, this weekend I went exploring at another grocery store. This one caters to an international clientele.
Oven Baby Back Ribs
A couple of weeks ago my sister-in-law posted some really good-looking baby back ribs that she prepared in her instant pot. Well, I don’t have an instant pot…so I had to cook mine in the oven. I didn’t get to try hers, but I did use her meal as inspiration.
Is It Fall Yet? I Made Chili!
I know, according to the Almanac, Fall technically started September 22nd. However, I live in Alabama…and we’re still having to deal with days where temperatures reach over 90 degrees! I figure if I cook enough Fall-appropriate foods the weather will catch the hint. Here’s an easy chili recipe in case you’re ready for cool weather too!
