I opened my first can of pumpkin last week to enjoy my first Pumpkin Spice Latte of this fall. I knew it wouldn’t be long until I made my first loaves of pumpkin bread. Last fall I shared my basic Pumpkin Bread recipe that you can make with or without apples, so I thought I’d share this one. My love […]

Marinara Sauce
Today’s recipe is a great basic sauce to have in your collection. It tastes fresher than a jarred or canned Marinara Sauce, and you will be able to whip it up on the fly. I usually double the recipe and then freeze it in 1-cup portions. Use it to whip up a pasta dinner on […]
Ugly Corn Dip
I’m sure you have had a version of this popular dip at one time or another. It is another one of my family’s favorite dips. We seem to like a lot of dips…hmmm…I wonder what that means? I think it means we like a good party! I decided to make this dip over the Labor […]
Caramel Apple Cake with Salted Caramel Topping
What says to you that fall has arrived? For me, as for a lot of you I’m sure, it is the start of school. Also, the beginning of football season, the state fair, and cooler morning temperatures signal the change of season. I love cooking in the fall, and nothing says fall to me like […]
Hot Sausage and Rotel Dip
We like things HOT HOT HOT around here. This dip is an oldie, but a goodie. It is perfect for your fall tailgating and football watching. I always have these ingredients on hand, it’s easy to whip up for teenagers and hungry football fans. My guys especially love it. I’ve even been known to dice […]
Chicken and Broccoli Pasta

Artichoke Lemon Pesto Stuffed Chicken Breasts
I am off enjoying some time away with my hubby and our great friends, but I didn’t forget about you. Today I’m going to share these tasty little chicken bundles. I have spent a lot of money in my lifetime on “gourmet” Artichoke Pesto at the store, but little did I know how easy it […]
Labor Day Weekend Potluck Dishes
We’re always a little sad when Labor Day Weekend rolls around. The official end of summer is here. Don’t feel too sorry for us, at the first snap of cooler weather our thoughts will turn to fall cooking and baking. Football and tailgating has begun and the Kansas State Fair begins next week. While we will miss […]
