We are in Breckenridge, Colorado spending time with family and enjoying a little vacation (and also celebrating our 4 year anniversary!) Be back Friday with a new recipe…
Sour Patch Grapes {Leprachaun Candy}
My sister-in-law Ashley told me about an idea she saw on Pinterest for Sour Patch Grapes. I went out that day and bought what I needed to try them out: Green grapes and Green Jello. Since St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner I thought it was fitting to call them Leprechaun Candy. I’m…
Oatmeal Butterscotch Bars with Brown Sugar Glaze
I may be too tired to cook when it’s time for dinner, but I’m never too tired to whip up a batch of my favorite cookies or something sweet like these Oatmeal Butterscotch Bars in the middle of the day. Never. I had forgotten just how much I love butterscotch…
Crock Pot Hawaiian Chicken
At 25 weeks I’m feeling more tired by the end of the day now than I was during my first trimester. So dinner around here lately has been quite a dud. We’ve had a lot of YOYO nights (You’re On Your Own) and I’m starting to feel a little guilty about it. I’m happy…
Peanut-Buttery Goodness…

Copycat Pizza Factory Breadsticks
These bread sticks are a copy cat of the breadsticks at a popular Utah based restaurant, The Pizza Factory. The pizza there is great but the breadsticks are where the money is at. If you’re from Utah, you know what I’m talkin’ about. Please tell me you go there just for the breadsticks too? These…
Peanut Butter M&M Marshmallow Cookies. Oh my!
I’ve gone from craving citrus fruits and anything sour in my first trimester to nothing but chocolate and peanut butter {and anything sweet} in my second trimester. I’ve got to get control of it. And control over these cookies. They happened yesterday. They are dangerous. Someone come eat them for me, PLEASE. …
Super Fast Sugar Cookies (Cake Mix Sugar Cookies)
Perfect sugar cookies are usually a labor of love. Not these ones. They are the perfect go to when you’re craving a delicious, soft sugar cookie but don’t have the time or energy to make them from scratch. Or they’re just great for a last minute treat you need to take to…
Grape and Goat Cheese Bruschetta
Today is my little guy’s 2nd birthday! Before we get to partying I wanted to share this simple and elegant Grape and Goat Cheese Bruschetta. Before you raise any eyebrows, let me just tell you how wonderfully grapes and goat cheese compliment each other. Especially when warm, and the goat cheese just kind of…
Cheesy Puff Pull Apart Bread
I’m not sure I need to say much about this bread here… Other than tell you, you simply must make it. I think you understand why, right? It’s hands down the best cheesy, puffy, hot and buttery bread I’ve eaten. Had I not made it for a dinner with friends I would…
Texas Sheet Cake
Chocolate cake is one of my favorite desserts. Simple yet oh so satisfying. A while back, we went to dinner with a big group of friends and even though we had a reservation, ended up waiting for about 45 minutes to be seated. We were all too busy talking and catching up to…

These Ham n Swiss Heart Crescents make for a super quick and easy Valentine’s lunch {or snack}! Start with two crescent triangles and place a piece of ham and Swiss cheese on each. Then just roll each crescent up, starting with the wide end. As you roll it, shape one end to be…
