Best Banana Bread Mini Loaves
A few weeks ago, I found a new bento style lunch box on Lightning Deal and decided we would give it a shot for our preschooler.

And so did boy #3. So I ordered a second … [Read more...]

Cherry Pretzel Dessert
One of my favorite things my mom made for us when we were kids was the Strawberry Pretzel dessert. I'd watch her make it, saw how long it took, and marveled. After a few times, I learned that it was worth the wait...and I'd try to eat a small-ish square...with hopes that it would last for days. (It usually didn't, thanks to my brother.) I loved it because it was delicious. … [Read more...]

I had to promise within an inch of my life that said child wouldn't actually taste the green … [Read more...]
Peach, Almond, Blue Cheese Salad
One of my favorite parts of summer...all of the amazing fresh produce and fun salads that you can "build." I think of salads as being "built." There's the lettuce base. There's something crunchy. There's something sweet-ish. There's something tangy. There's something creamy. There's the dressing. Sometimes there's the protein. In this case, we're … [Read more...]

Buffalo Wing Foil Packs, for the Grill!
In the recent past, our family has become slightly obsessed with the buffalo wing sauce plus Ranch dressing combo. We've made nachos, tacos, burritos, shredded chicken for salads, and now these foil packs. It's silly simple: mix up the Ranch and buffalo wing sauce. Pour over wings, then wrap in foil. Grill or bake, as directed! Then, top with crumbled blue cheese and even … [Read more...]
