Homemade Pina Coladas {Recipe}
I am allergic to alcohol. Well, not really. BUT something about it makes me sick every time I try to drink it, the instant it hits my stomach :(. I’ve tried every form — chick beer, beer, wine, liquor, mixed drinks — it doesn’t matter. It’s a real bummer because I feel silly going out […] Read more…

Bring Your Own…What?
I LOVE to have people over. My budget, however, doesn’t allow me to have people over as much as I like. A group of my friend, however, have a tradition of throwing gatherings on a budget. Bring Your Own….Everything. Well, okay, not EVERYTHING. How it works is that everyone brings meat to grill plus a […] Read more…

I saw this Potato Bacon Torte recipe in passing on $10 Dinners on Food Network a few weeks ago. She was doing a show on her favorite french bistro meal. I decided to make it and it’s fabulous! It’s like a very light scallopped potatoes in a pie and would make a great brunch dish! […] Read more…
Menu Plan Monday #41
Last week was interesting. My lovely 4yo ended up getting sick (in the literal sense) Monday evening so my meal plan last week got sidetracked a bit as she’s been terrified to eat anything lest she throw up again. Toast and chicken soup for a week! Finally ate some pizza on Saturday and freaked […] Read more…
