We love ribs in our house. I mean really love. I love the smell of them on the grill, the pull off the bone, the delightful mess, everything about them. Except the meat in my teeth. Seriously, as soon as the meal is done I’m in the bathroom flossing away. But, ribs on a weeknight? …
Mother’s Day
To every mother, stepmother, grandmother, aunt and special person who acts as the mom, Happy Mother’s Day! May your day be filled with the love you so freely give.
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…
Instant Pot Green Beans
I am one happy bride right now. Mark now eats green beans. Yes, you read that correctly. My picky super-taster husband is now willingly eating a green vegetable, even asking me to make them! I’ll give you a minute to recover from the shock. I shouldn’t talk so sarcastically. Truth be told, his palate has…
Instant Pot Shredded Chicken
Just about any day of the week you’ll find shredded chicken in our freezer. When our lives were ruled by the boys’ sports schedules, the key to my sanity was found in the freezer and/or the Crock-Pot. I’m still at it, cooking meat and portioning it out for a meal later, with the only difference…
RV Project: Headboard
As I’ve said before, we got really lucky finding our new to us Phaeton. It was well taken care of with low miles and was exactly the layout we were looking for. Kudos to Mark for searching and searching. Even better, it was only 20 minutes from our house! The previous owners used it to…
Avocado Fries
I’m so excited to share this recipe with you! We like to trail ride in our Jeep or RZR. It’s a great way to unplug, see nature and some fun other finds along the way. And, it’s a great way to find out of the way local dining gems. That’s how we found avocado fries. …
Happy Easter
An Easter Wish – On this day, may you experience a sweet renewal of faith, hope, and joy.
Cadbury Blondies
I can’t be the only one that hoards 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 of M&M’s…
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…
