Aunt Petti’s Cornbread Casserole.
I just love old family recipes. They are tried and true and make great memories come to mind every time I make them. This one reminds me of Thanksgiving. Mark’s Aunt Petti did Thanksgiving for the family. Sometimes 40 people; her door was always open. My first Thanksgiving at her house was as a 19-year-old…
Easy Pumpkin Sugar Cookies
We’re about halfway through the “all things pumpkin spice” season. My Pinterest feed is full of pumpkin spice this and pumpkin spice that. I won’t be surprised to see a pumpkin spice turkey recipe next. Don’t get me wrong, I love me some pumpkin; just not pumpkin everything. Except for these cookies. These cookies are…
Pumpkin Bread
Nothing says FALL in our house like pumpkin. Pumpkin anything, except pumpkin spiced lattes. I am not a coffee girl at all so while a PSL smells great, it definitely does not taste great. But pumpkin bread and pumpkin muffins? All day everyday. This is a super easy recipe that comes together in minutes and…
Ham & Swiss Sliders
Wow these are good. And easy. And RV friendly. I’ve made these a few times but the latest batch was by far the best. I changed one little thing and hit it out of the park, foil. Our annual Thanksgiving turkey in the dirt is really an eat fest all weekend. We follow the big…

Better Than Sex Cake
While I’m not completely sure about the accuracy of the cake name, I am sure it is delicious on all levels and probably one of my favorite desserts. My dear friend Terri gave the recipe way back when both of us were newlyweds. This was often the marquee dessert at both bridal and baby showers…
ABC Avocado-Bacon-Cheese Chicken Thighs
Ooohhhh, last night’s dinner was one of those amazing and delicious happy accidents. Chicken thighs topped with bacon and provolone on the grill then topped with fresh sliced avocado. Say it with me: YUM We’ve had a similar chicken dish for years as a sandwich. The grocery store had a buy one, get two…
Zucchini Cakes
Attention in the building! We have joined the Blackstone craze. Mark wanted a 22-inch Blackstone for Father’s Day, we had a nice little scavenger hunt finding the one he wanted in stock. Wife of the year here, we bought it at Walmart, those that know me well know how much I dislike that place. He’s…
Pesto Pasta Salad
I was scrolling through my Instagram feed recently and saw a delicious picture. Like, wow, I have to make this today because it looks so good kinda picture. Not less than an hour later I received a text from our dear friends inviting us over for a BBQ that Saturday. Fate I tell ya. Today’s…
