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…

Easter Cadbury Blondies
I can’t be the only one that stocks up on holiday candy. I just can’t be. My grocery store always puts the holiday candy on sale 4 or 5 weeks before the holiday. I’m talking a screaming deal sale that when combined with my coupons, makes them super screaming deal. Who doesn’t like a bag…

Crockpot Salsa Verde Con Queso Dip
We are chips and salsa people, 100%. We never turn down a second basket in a Mexican restaurant. I guess I shouldn’t say never because we are trying to keep our weight in check. Cheesy salsa, that’s a whole other ball game. You will always find a brick of Velveeta and a can of Rotel…

Healthy Baked Apple Chips
It’s a typical January in central Arizona, sunny and mild. Don’t get me wrong, compared to the rest of the country right now, it’s ideal.

Easy 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? The Cardinals made it to the playoffs but flamed out in spectacular fashion. The Super Bowl party has been at our house for years. The game is on in the family room and on…
Blueberry French Toast Casserole
Christmas morning is magical. Even though our boys are grown, I still see them as little boys with every present they open. I don’t think that will ever change. When we lived in California our Christmas mornings were hectic. Hurry to open gifts, hurry to one house then hurry to another. All this hurrying was…
