My love for chocolate runs deep. My Aunts Nancy and Marla showed me early in life what good chocolate was all about. There’s even a candy company in my family. My Aunt Rose and Uncle Dave had, in my opinion, the best chocolate in the country. Redstone Candy is a staple in Pennsylvania, you should…
The Vineyards Campground & Cabins
Mark keeps a file on his computer of RV parks that look promising. Ones that come up repeatedly that people rave about. Today’s RV park came from that list. The first time we stayed here was for our nephew’s college graduation. As we left we said to each other, “We’ll be back.” The Vineyards is…
FMCA Rally 2021 Style
We just wrapped up another fun time at the 102nd FMCA Rally in Perry, Georgia. The weather was perfect, the people were friendly and most importantly right now, the safety measures worked smashingly. We were in for a busy week this time. Mark was a golf cart driver covering four shifts and we were presenting…
Easy Blueberry Cake Bars
I wanted to call these blueberry crack bars but decided I better not. They are so good and can be addicting so I’ll let you be the judge. These little gems were one of the first things I pinned on Pinterest. Sadly, it got buried from one too many pin binges. I really wish Pinterest…
Easy 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…
Spring Into Savings With FMCA
Spring has sprung and we’re taking baby steps back to normalcy. Here in Arizona, we’ve just opened up vaccines to anyone 16 and older, and with numbers continuing their downward trend, normal may be on the horizon. We are lucky that we can use our coach year round with great state parks and beautiful resorts…
Cooking Seminar Follow-Up
We had a few people that attended the RV Cooking seminar at the FMCA rally earlier this month ask questions afterward that we didn’t know the answers to. We told them we’d dig into their questions and provide answers here. Thank you for your questions! Here we go! When making yogurt, do you set the…
Wine Country RV Resort
There are many wineries to explore and wines to taste in the Central California wine region. Wine Country RV Resort makes a great home base. It’s conveniently located just northeast of downtown Paso along CA46 granting easy travel to all of the nearby vineyards, breweries and distilleries. It’s a pretty resort, the grounds are well…
Praline Topped Sweet Potatoes
Sweet potatoes aren’t just for Thanksgiving or Christmas. They also don’t always need to be topped with marshmallows. We eat them often. We make sweet potato fries but mostly we just bake them. I eat them plain, they are sweet and moist enough on their own, while Mark adds butter and sometimes a little brown…
FMCA Micro-Convection and Instant Pot Seminar
A huge thank you to everyone that came to our seminar at the FMCA Rally today. We are grateful you chose to spend an hour with us and to stay when the room temperature rose. I apologize to those that didn’t get a handout, who knew 200 wouldn’t be enough. As promised, we’ve created a…
