I thought when lockdown started that I would become a better baker during my at-home time. That hasn’t happened. In fact, I’ve cooked less during the pandemic than before. My heart just isn’t in it. However, jam making is a whole other matter. I make jams and jelly every year and I wasn’t going to …
It’s almost dinner time, and you haven’t decided what you’re going to be making! You forgot to take any meat out of the freezer. It’s a good thing that you have shrimp. Shrimp only takes a few minutes to thaw, and there are a million ways for you to cook it. Since it pretty much …
I’ve been making homemade spaghetti sauce yearly with the tomatoes that I have been getting from Emily Rae’s tomato patch, but this year I decided to change my recipe up a bit (for this batch only). As much as I love red pepper flakes in my sauce, the kids don’t. At all. If you missed …
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Home Chef for IZEA. All opinions are 100% mine. I’ve had the easiest weekend I’ve had in awhile. My weekends are usually spent fighting the crowds while shopping. I always try to fix something different on the weekends when I have more time to …

I was given the challenge to mix things up with Progresso Bread Crumbs and it couldn’t have come at a better time nor a better day. I love to cook from scratch but I didn’t have time for chopping my own herbs or for making my own bread crumbs today. I had to get up …
This is an old recipe that I wanted to get up on my site so I can save it. I try to post several recipes each weekend for those of you who like to try your hand in the kitchen. I’m anything but an expert but I do like to share recipes that turn out …
Alyssa and Abby helped me bake blueberry pies a little while back. In the above picture, we only used 4 cups of blueberries. The pies were too thin so I have been using the 6 cups as stated below ever since. I’m making more pies today. We just can’t get enough of blueberry pies. My mom …
Lately I’ve been exhausted by the weekend so I’ve been making crock pot  meals. I make enough where we can eat off of it a couple to a few meals. I don’t have to spend all weekend in the kitchen and that makes me happy! Today, I decided to share my weekend crock pot  recipe with my …
