Cooking Club has definitely come in handy the last month; we have all been so busy. So busy, that I still hadn’t had a chance to write about our March Cooking Club. It has been great not having to worry about what’s for dinner. The other great thing is that I haven’t had to go … Continue reading
Modeling Chocolate is now my preferred decoration for cakes! A few weeks ago, I made a cake for my daughter with molded lipstick, compact mirror, and a hairbrush. Now, for my son, I’ve made a space-themed cake and cupcakes decorated with modeling chocolate. I love the look of the planets! The sun is made out … Continue reading
My daughter absolutely loves the “Brownie & Pearl” series of books by Cynthia Rylant. Her favorite one has to be “Brownie & Pearl Get Dolled Up”. What little girl doesn’t love to get dolled up? Since we started reading this book, I find my little princess getting in to my makeup brushes any time she … Continue reading
Some friends and I got together this past weekend so we could fill our freezers. We all voted on some easy freezer meals and this is what we made: Freezer-Friendly Brown Bag Burritos, Salsa Chicken, Hawaiian Chicken Sandwiches, Honey-Sesame Pork Tenderloin, and Shrimp Pesto. It’s only been two days, and since then I’ve only used … Continue reading

This week, I just picked up the nearest cooking magazine and only cooked from the one source. The recipe for Satay-Style … Continue reading
My friends and I are still taking advantage of the great perks of having a cooking club. Because of our busy schedules in December, and the location we use was booked up with holiday parties, we haven’t met since November. I’ve been so busy that I haven’t had a chance to share our November cooking … Continue reading
I hope you didn’t give up chocolate for the New Year! You will need just a spoonful to make this easy crockpot dinner. I love to have Molé a couple of times a year because it has such a distinct flavor that is different from anything else I make. If you’ve never had it, now … Continue reading
Over the past 2 weeks, I’ve made 5 batches of peppermint bark! I found a recipe on Pinterest that was posted by A Couple Cooks, and it is so simple. One reason it is so easy is that the timing of the recipe is very forgiving. After each step is complete, it doesn’t matter when … Continue reading
Until last week, I had never had an apple dumpling. I’ve always wanted one, but never had a chance to eat one. In fact, there is a local ice cream shop that advertises Hot Apple Dumplings on their sign every fall, but when I drive by it’s always at the wrong time of day. After seeing a recipe for Cinnamon Roll Apple … Continue reading
How do you make gingerbread men more manly? Make them into superheroes, of course! Or how about pirates? Do you traditionally make gingerbread people with your family? How do you dress yours? Continue reading
