Weeknight Chicken Dinner
This is the easiest, most delicious, one-pot wonder that I make. The whole family loves it and it is great for a weeknight meal or a fast warm weather weekend meal. You do it all in one skillet and it is a great way to get the kids to eat their veggies.

So, this dish is an awesome way to get them to eat carrots, onions and broccoli!! All in one dish! My girls both love this…

I am sure it wonderful, however, I wanted something that was more dessert-like than just still using regular crostini. So, I use pound cake in mine. Pound cake…

Homemade Play dough
When you have little ones at home, play dough is a must! The little jars however, can get messy and be all over the house. Also, if it drys out, that is a waste of money and you will constantly be buying more and more of it!

Memorial Day Weekend Quarantine Style
We are know that this year is different than usual when it comes to Memorial Day!

Incredible White Chocolate Blondies
My husband and I had our first date at the White Chocolate Grill restaurant. It is the perfect restaurant for me because I am a huge white chocolate fan! So, I had a white chocolate martini and they have really amazing food as well as desserts. So, we had wonderful steaks and sides, but the absolute most memorable thing, besides the company, of course was the dessert. We shared a giant white chocolate and walnut blondie that was served warm with vanilla ice cream and chocolate sauce. That was almost 9 years ago and we still talk about how amazing it was. So, when I was thinking about our anniversary dinner and what…
