French Onion Frittata
So, quarantine is going well. We’re what, 5 months in? And I’ve uploaded what, 2 recipes? Oh well, better late than never. I’m still working on my MBA, and the class I just finished last week was the most demanding one I’ve taken so far. Not difficult, just a lot of…
Recreating Neopets Food
I am flying my nerd flag high today, folks. Since quarantine hit, I’ve rediscovered my childhood love of Neopets. Turns out, the website is still going strong with a very active community of players. I’ve had a ton of fun reconnecting to the game and it’s giving me something to look forward…
Slow Cooker Hawaiian BBQ Sliders
What wild times we’re living in right now. It’s not often that we’re all fully aware of living through a crisis that will surely be written into the history books. This is week six of working from home for both Todd and I. On week one, I said to myself “I finally…
Beer Bread Two Ways

One Pan Chicken & Apple Sausage Pasta
Well, after a 6 month hiatus, it feels good to be sitting down to write a recipe again. So much has happened in the last 5 months, I don’t know where the time went! Most exciting of all is that I’ve started my MBA! I’m going online through the University of…
Aunt Debbie’s Snow Day Soup
Every family has their go-to snow day recipes, don’t they? For my family, that recipe as always been grilled ham and cheese sandwiches and my Aunt Debbie’s famous Chicken Corn Chowder! I sometimes call it our “Snow Day Soup,” because we make a big pot anytime the snow begins to coat the…
Baked Texas Beans
Everyone has their comfort foods – the dishes that your mom or grandmother used to make, and that somehow never taste as good, no matter how closely you follow their recipes and instructions. In my family, it’s always been dad’s recipes that inspire the most nostalgia in my head. His eggplant parmesan,…
