When our boys were young, we were knee-deep in sports. Baseball, football, soccer and volleyball sure kept us busy. During baseball season, sometimes our only day off was Sunday. I actually looked forward to the nights when we had two games in one night because that meant we could have another night of us all…

Tried and true recipes for the RV life.
Patriotic Jello Parfaits
Watch it wiggle, see it jiggle, it’s Jello brand gelatin. Jello is such a fun and easy dessert. Fancy Jello desserts make their appearance every year during the holidays but they are sometimes forgotten the rest of the year in our house. If you’re looking to get your kids involved in the kitchen, making Jello…
Cheesy Garlic Asparagus
Mark has been anti-vegetable for as long as I’ve known him. Yeah, there were a few he would eat; peas, corn, potatoes and artichokes but that was pretty much it. Early in our marriage he added salad to his repertoire, but only iceberg. He called it a Honeymooners Salad, lettuce alone. Insert hysterical laughter here….
Sam’s Egg Salad
As far back as I can remember, my dad has made egg salad sandwiches. We had these glass bowls that were white on the inside and an odd light orange on the outside that he used to dice up the eggs. I remember it like it was yesterday. I wish he still had those bowls. …

Your children will eagerly dip apple slices in this while conquering their homework and looking at you angelically.

Todays recipes need to be full of delicious flavors, fresh, easy and fast enough for a weeknight meal. Food should taste good without all those 27-letter long…
Cool Lemon Delight
Easter in Arizona is always an adventure, weather wise. After our winters are over, we look forward nervously to the warming temperatures of spring. We don’t want the 90’s to arrive too soon because that means the 100’s are not far behind. If only we could have January and February temps year-round, sigh. Most times…
Easy Peach Cobbler
Soon we’ll be heading to Perry, Georgia for the upcoming FMCA Rally and we are really excited to be a part of it. You know what else I’m excited about? Peaches. I love peaches and Georgia bills itself as the peach capital. Peach pie, peach cobbler, peach ice cream; I bet there’s even a peach…
Red Velvet Cake Mix Cookies
Yowza these cookies were good. And easy. They might just be the best little Valentine’s treat. You all know how much I love cookies; I’ve confessed it many times. Cake mix cookies are my newest love. They take no time at all to make and require minimal ingredients and equipment. They are perfect, perfect I…
Corn Salsa
It’s that time of year again. Time for two weeks of non-stop Super Bowl hype. Are your teams still in it? My Cardinals have been out of it since Week 1. The Super Bowl party has been at our house for years. We set up an extra TV outside and have a huge spread of…
