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…
Mashed Potatoes with Bacon & Cheddar Cheese
We’re knocking on Halloween’s door and about to enter the annual Eat-a-Thon that is the holiday season. I can’t be the only one that looks around wondering where the heck 2017 went. I mean seriously, wasn’t January just last week?! Halloween not only means costumes, decorations, parties and trick-or-treaters; but it also means it’s time…
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…
Return to Beautiful Bryce Canyon
Bryce Canyon is a place I can got back to over and over again and enjoy it just as much as the first time. Our last trip there was just this summer. We’d spent several days riding the RZR on the Paiute Trail and finished the trip with a few days at Bryce. If you…
Foil Packet Chicken
The BBQ is the dinner star when we are camping. Is it just me or does everything taste better when you’re camping? Relaxing in the woods smelling a tri-tip on the grill is something I will never tire of. But we can’t eat tri-tip every night on each and every trip; our doctor would not…
Photogenic Bryce Canyon
Think back to the first time you encountered the beauty of our National Parks. Looking down Yosemite Valley, standing next to the waterfall at Niagara Falls, the raw beauty of both rims of the Grand Canyon. The landscape of our great country is so grand and varied. Then there is the completely different beauty of…
The Magic Rubberband
How many times have you been pleasantly rolling down the road, hit a bump or rough section of highway and hear the dreaded noise of something falling out of a cabinet? Show of hands… Yeah, us too. We have this set of cabinets in the “kitchen.” We store cans, spices and other items in…
Keeping Your Clothes Clean
Let’s face it, life on the road is just as dirty as life at home. Mark used to drive in some sort of white shirt on trips. Notice how I said used to? It became a self-fulfilling prophecy as something always happened where he needed to get under the motor home on a drive if…
RV Friendly Tomato Soup
Sometimes you just need a big ol’ bowl of soup. I am a soup girl. I eat it year round, even living on the face of the sun in Arizona. And I love Paradise Bakery’s Fire Roasted Tomato Soup. But, they were bought out by Panera Bread. Nothing against Panera, but their version just isn’t…
Cooler Weather = Time to Ride
Another Arizona summer has come and gone. We made it! The air conditioner is off at night and hopefully soon it will be off all day as well. Who am I kidding, it’ll probably be November before it’s totally off for the winter. Until then, I’m going to enjoy the sight of the back door…
