Reposted from January 2011 When it’s a work day, I often want easy meals. I need to have dinner on the table soon after I get home. This has to be done before my hubby goes to work. This recipe is super easy because it cooks while I’m at work. The smells that meet me…

Today is going to be a short post because of parent-teacher conferences. I’m going to feature a recipe from the blog. We love Spanish-style chicken noodle soup.

When we eat pasta dishes at our house, the three of us enjoy eating garlic bread with our dinner. The Wee One refuses to eat garlic bread. That means extra garlic bread for the rest of us. The other day I decided to make garlic bread using hoagie buns from Sam’s Club. The result was…

Sometimes I crave the classic combo of grilled cheese and tomato soup. I really don’t like condensed tomato soup unless I doctor it up with basil. So when I craved it, I decided to try making a homemade version of the soup. It ended up being yummy! This recipe came from Rachael Ray. As a…

Until a few years ago, breakfast was not a favorite meal of mine. I rarely ate breakfast which is not a good habit to get into. Then I made a resolution in 2013 to eat breakfast every day. I did 98% of the time, but a few times, I forgot to – usually if I…
