wholesome and delicious meals from my table to yours
This time of year my family loves hot chocolate. It is perfect for the holidays and for a cold weather drink. One of the things I love to do is to make homemade hot chocolate. It is a favorite in our house and we love to change things up and try new versions. The most recent version we tried was a Mexican Hot Chocolate using Silk [...]
During the summertime I love to make quick and easy meals that do not heat up the kitchen. A few weeks ago when my husband had a meeting, and I knew that it would be just the kids and I for dinner, I decided to make it a chips and dip type of meal. I knew chips and dip would keep it easy and would [...]
I know many of you love coffee. And you don’t just love it, you really love it and can’t live without it. You love the flavor, you love the taste, you just love everything about coffee. My husband is not a big regular coffee drinker, but he loves iced coffee and frappuccino type drinks. In other words, he is one of those people that likes some [...]
Summertime is the best time for fun drinks to cool off with, so today I thought I would share a few fun ideas that work well for any age. Yes, these are all family friendly, safe for the kids. And a few of them might be considered more of a dessert, but it is summer, so dessert/drinks kind of work the same. Homemade Raspberry Lemonade [...]
The warm weather months are the perfect time for smoothies. A creamy and cold smoothie on a warm day is the perfect breakfast, lunch, or snack. This creamy orange smoothie is one I made recently when I really wanted a smoothie, but I did not have much for fresh or frozen fruit. It was quick and easy to make and we loved it.
Whenever I mention the fact that I often make a large batch of smoothies ahead and freeze them in containers to use for quick breakfasts, or lunches on the go, I get asked about the containers that I use to freeze them in. Freezer smoothies are one of my favorite things to keep in the freezer. I love my homemade smoothie mix and also keep [...]

So, I love football when I get to make food for football watching. I thought today I would share a few fun and very good recipes that are perfect for Super Bowl food or really for anytime. I [...]
I made this bacon cheddar dip three times over the holidays and I never got a picture of it. Every time I made this dip it was gone before I could get a pictures. I guess that is a sure sign of a really good recipe. I also got asked for the recipe every time I made this, which is another sign of a good [...]
When my sister was visiting last month she mentioned that she loves to put coffee creamer in her hot chocolate. And as soon as she told me this I said something like, but you don’t like coffee. To which she replied, they don’t all taste like coffee. This was news to me, because I just assumed coffee creamers tasted like coffee. You see, I hate [...]
I love to cook and bake, and it is a good thing, because my family loves to eat. I live with my husband and three kids on 43 acres in Northeastern Oklahoma. Between homeschooling, helping in my husband’s dental office, working on our property, taking care of three dogs, and raising hogs as a side job/hobby, I am constantly on the go like most of you.
