Money Can’t Buy Happiness…but it can buy Marshmallows which are kind of the same thing! Lets face it…I love to eat, and if you pair marshmallows and chocolate…well, that is makin’ happy for me! Unfortunately, too many marshmallows, graham crackers and chocolate (or Smores in my case) can lead to clothes being just a little…
If you like Smores around a campfire or you make them in your oven…you will like this Just Like Smores Cupcakes! They are made from scratch, but you could easily use a chocolate cake mix and use the graham cracker crumbs and marshmallow cream for the frosting. Try them and let me know how you like…
Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Muffins! I love making these muffins or you can call them cupcakes if you like. It doesn’t matter what you call them, they taste so yummy with your morning coffee or tea…or a healthy smoothie. You don’t have to stop at one of those expensive bakeries or coffee shops to get your…

Mac & Cheese was as common in our home growing up as water in the winter time. I will explain, the drink at meals in the wintertime was plain water. It wasn’t until the summer months that Mother served Iced Tea, Kool-Aid or Lemonade. Sounds strange by today’s standards, where iced drinks are served…
Billion Dollar Bracketology?…..yes, a perfectly filled out tournament bracket can earn someone a billion dollars! Hey Sports Fans… We are into the second day of the NCAA Tournament….and Kansas plays late this afternoon, so you know what I will be doing at that time. Yep, no phone calls, emails, recipes…..no answering the door… starting…
I really like this recipe for shrimp stir fry, and it is very easy to make. I started using Jasmine rice because I really like the nutty flavor. Of course you may substitute white rice or even brown rice, but I personally prefer the Jasmine rice. I hope you like this recipe too. Me
When I was a little girl, one of my favorite breakfasts was french toast. My Mother would cut the bread slices in various shapes by using a cookie cutter on plain white bread. After frying the egg coated bread, she would layer the different cut out shapes on a large plate,… put a small…
