As you know, I like to watch the Oscars to see the fashion -- and the opening skit is usually entertaining. So at the last minute, I thought it would be fun to do something special with my kids to celebrate the Oscars. And since my daughter's birthday was the day before, we turned it into a spur-of-the-moment birthday/Oscar party. {Hayley with her Grandmas -- Ella snuck in too}I wanted to make … [Read more...]

When we were in Hawaii we were able to go to dinner one night at Roys and have the amazing chocolate lava cake. This is my favorite dessert in the whole wide world! Here is the recipe. This would make a fantastic, romantic Valentine's dessert for your sweetheart or family! It is actually a simple recipe. The trick is using the best quality chocolate you can find. We have used scharfenberger. I … [Read more...]

We grew up far away from any family. Once a year we would pile in the station wagon for the annual summer 20-hour trip to see our relatives. It was such an adventure and so much fun to see our cousins, aunts and uncles and grandparents. We spent many summers running around in the desert heat catching grasshoppers and running through the sprinklers. Eating toasted bologna sandwiches on hot … [Read more...]

This is one of my favorite recipes that I have been making for years. One of my friends gave it to me and it had been handed down to her from her grandmother. I thought it would be a great entry for my first Tasty Tidbits Thursday! Italian Sausage Lasagna 1 pound ground sausage (I used hot Italian sausage) 1 pound ground beef (I used 4% lean) 1/2 cup chopped onion 1 (14.5 ounce) can … [Read more...]

The next time you are planning a get-together, consider throwing a fondue party. You'll love it because it's easy to throw together. Your kids will love it because it's kind of wacky and who doesn't love dipping funny things in vats of hot liquid. And your parents or grand-parents will love it because it will remind them of by-gone days when fondue parties were all the rage. We decided to have … [Read more...]

I spent yesterday afternoon making fudge -- thanks to Prudie! She inspired me to make some for the kids' church teachers. I ended up making Chocolate Fudge, White Chocolate Oreo Fudge, Butterscotch Fudge, Candy Cane Fudge and Peanut Butter Fudge. It was so much fun and easy!!! Go check out Prudie's recipe if you need a quick, easy gift for anyone this Season! I also found a wonderful Peanut … [Read more...]

This is a fun project to do with your kids. We were over at my mom's house and she showed us how to make these fun little guys. This is what you need to make them: 1 package of chocolate (the kind you use to dip strawberries) 1 package of almonds, sliced 1 jar of cherries with the stems on small candies (we used little red hots and sprinkles for ice cream) Other ideas would be silver round balls … [Read more...]

When I think of my childhood, one of the most vivid memories I have is of begging my mom to make this dessert. And when she would make it, I remember eating my piece as fast as I possibly could. Then after my mom left the kitchen I would sneak another piece out of the pan and run outside with it to eat without her seeing me. Light, fluffy with a delicious lemon scent and taste. The crust buttery … [Read more...]

On a cold winter day there is nothing as scrumptious and warming as a delicious cup of Starbuck's hot chocolate. I love to get the non-fat milk with a shot of peppermint and whipped cream. Yum! It just takes the edge off of a cold, cold day. Last year we discovered a nifty invention called the Mr. Coffee Cocomotion. We gave it out to everyone in our families for Christmas. It makes a great … [Read more...]
