Cook It. Bake It. Eat It.
Today is Monster House Party day. I spent the entire morning running around the house baking, cleaning, finishing decorations and putting my costume together. Mike did his job and kept the boys happy while I went on my tirade. I think my favorite thing about having a Halloween party is that you don’t have to [...]
If I’ve never mentioned it before, Mike works for an adult beverage distribution company. We end up with all kinds of fun shwag around the house. Today was the best! He brought me home a Jack Daniel’s bottle cake mold and label stencil. How cool is that?!?? I immediately wanted to make the cake happen. I [...]
Last night I didn’t know what to do for dinner. I had defrosted some chicken, but couldn’t figure out what I wanted to do with it. I saw bacon and turned to breakfast burritos instead. Yes, I make Brinner sometimes. This morning I saw the chicken again, sitting in my fridge, taunting me. I [...]
Thing 1 had a bright idea this morning – popcorn! I haven’t popped any in months. My mom almost always made me popcorn on the stove. When I was little she’s buy Jiffy Pop poppers. {Tell me you remember how fun it was to watch the big silver balloon puff up.} When I got older, [...]

It’s game day! Ohio State could really use a W today. So off to Treena’s we go. We always show up with a dish and some drinks to share with everyone. I love potlucks, they make entertaining so much easier. Today I’m making Garlic Parmesan Pull-Apart Bread from The Pastry Affair. Another PIN and a [...]
In hopes of not just letting Pinterest be my addiction , I committed to making some of things on my Halloween board before the end of the month. Yesterday the boys helped me make ghost feet. This being Thing 2′s first Halloween it seemed only fitting to make a memory. Equipment: 8″ x 10″ canvas Black acrylic paint White acrylic [...]
When it rains in Arizona people go all crazy. They drive horribly, act like the sky is literally falling, and post it to Facebook like there is no tomorrow. I’m not one of those people. I rarely mention the weather {yes, I see the irony in me saying this right now} because we can all see what [...]
