How to Make a Decorative Pie Crust

Not too long ago I set out to make a pie to serve after our Sunday family dinner. I wanted to have a pretty crust on my pie but in all honestly I didn’t have a clue how to make a pretty crust. I remember my Nana always had pretty crust, and my Mom always has too. But how? You can find anything and everything online so why not a video that teaches you how to make...

Wordless Wednesday: New Dryer! #Lowes

Finally our new dryer is here rain and all!! It was pouring the day it was delivered and it was soaked, but it made it. Nope, this dryer isn’t fancy and it certainly wasn’t expensive, but it’s a huge upgrade from the dryer I had! Heck working is an upgrade. It’s much bigger, with a buzzer and a light on the inside, and it’s also brand new! My old one was 10 years...

Hasselback Potatoes

My husband is Swedish so I am always trying to find recipes I think he would like and that would be familiar to him. I decided I would make Hasselback Potatoes to go along with our dinner one night only to find out my husband had never hear of them lol. I couldn’t find a recipe for them in my mother-in-laws recipe box which should have been clue one, but I...

Wordless Wednesday: Let's Get Fruity!

I have really been making a point of incorporating fruit into our daily lives. When you just need a snack fruit is an easy go to especially if you pass a big inviting bowl of fruit on the way to the kitchen. I remember when I was a kid we always had a big bowl of fruit on the table that my parents would pick up at the farmers market. Our house now has the same thing. This...

Kittencal's Taco Seasoning Mix

I love this taco seasoning mix. I do not buy pre-packed mix anymore. I have heard from a lot of people that they can’t eat pre-packaged mix because of gluten issues, or because of other chemicals that tend to be in pre-packaged products. You don’t have to worry about any of those problems with this recipe because you control everything you put into your taco seasoning....

Mild and Delicious Buffalo Wings

I thought I would post my new favorite buffalo chicken wing recipe just in time for the Super Bowl! This is what we will be having for dinner tonight so I wanted to share the recipe just in case you were still searching for what to serve during the big game! These are honestly the best wings I have ever eaten! They are mild but have the amazing buffalo flavor just without...

Taco Chili

This recipe is FANTASTIC! It’s super easy to make and the flavors are incredible. I can’t wait to make this again because it’s just that good. I love anything hearty because it only takes a small amount to fill you up and keep you going. The worth of this recipe is a plus too!! I highly recommend this pot of yumminess! Ingredients: 1 lb. ground beef...
