One of our kids favorite things to eat for breakfast are stacks of pancakes. In the spirit of true confession I am not a morning person, so I do not like to make pancakes very often.

The only time I make hot fresh pancakes for breakfast is on birthdays. The rest of the year I make a big batch of pancakes and freeze them.

This allows me to sleep in and allows our teenagers to make their own breakfast on busy mornings. [Read more…]

Summer officially starts this week. Our kids only have 2 more half days of school, and then it is game on summer.

Of course, living in Florida, summer comes to us usually by April. It has been hot and sunny here for a while now. Thankfully, it hasn’t been that humid. Yet, anyway…

When it gets hot and extra humid outside, I really do not want to turn my oven on. Easy no bake desserts are the perfect thing for those hot summer days.

My husband and I are completely different when it comes to dessert. To be completely honest, he actually doesn’t even like dessert that much.

I know! How is that even possible when there are desserts in our kitchen pretty much 24/7?!?!?!

My ideal dessert is a layered dessert with lots of chocolate and peanut butter inside and outside. So, you can see why these Ultimate Reese’s Cheesecake Brownies are one of my favorites, right?

My husband on the other hand prefers plain and simple desserts. [Read more…]

We always keep a few different cans of pie filling in our pantry to use in easy recipes. One of the desserts that my husband and I made quite often when we were first married is a dump cake. I love the flavor combo in this easy blackberry lemon dump cake.

Please tell me you are familiar with a dump cake. It is exactly what it sounds like it is.

Dump the ingredients into the pan, pour butter on top, bake until done, top with ice cream, and devour. It’s one of the easiest and most delicious things you will ever have. [Read more…]

This past week has been crazy busy around here. Our church provided lunches on three days for a local elementary school as a way to say thank you to the teachers for all their hard work. I made some funfetti sugar cookie bars and fudge for the first two days, then I decided to make cute little cheesecake parfaits for the last day. Let’s just say that 60 parfaits seemed like an easy thing when I first started.

I enlisted my hubby to help me with chopping cookies and washing dishes that night. Four hours later we finished up the last one. Now part of the reason it took so long is that I was developing the actual recipe for two of the varieties that we made. The other two recipes were already finished, and we just had to whip up triple batches of each. Easier said than done though.

Maybe I should have just stuck with an easier dessert, although I heard that the teachers loved all of them. So it was totally worth it! [Read more…]

This past weekend I realized that I am the only one in our household that likes thing neat and organized all of the time.

If you take a walk through our bedroom, there are piles of clothes on my husband’s side of the bed. Then if you go into our bathroom and open both doors to our closets, you will find one neat and orderly and one covered in clothes and shoes. Any guesses who owns the neat closet?

Our three children are following in their father’s footsteps too. All three bedrooms have piles of clothes, water bottles, and makeup. Ok, ok so the piles of make up are only in our daughter’s room. The boys have piles of video games and dirty plates. [Read more…]

So, our daughter got her permit a few weeks ago and has been doing different drives and taking a driver’s ed class. They have done drives in the country, down town, on the freeway, and around town.

She was a little nervous about all those places before she started, but each time she came back and said they were easy. The more she drives, the more confident she is getting behind the wheel. As hard as it is to watch your children grow up, it is fun to see them conquer fears and challenges.

I had the opportunity the other day to show her why you shouldn’t hit a curb with your tire. Since this particular skill wasn’t being offering in class, I decided to step up and be the one to help her out. [Read more…]

On the weekends my husband and I like to catch up on different shows on Netflix. Of course, that means we have to binge watch for a few hours on that one night. We will try to stay up as late as we can since each episode drags you in more and more. Each one ends and you have to watch another one because you have to know what happens next. Before we know it it’s 2 am, and I can’t remember what happened in the last episode because I am falling asleep.

The latest show we have finished is Fringe. I’m not usually a fan of sci-fi type shows, but we really got into the story line of that one. Now that it is over, we have been looking for a new series that we can start on. Does anyone have any suggestions for shows they liked?

Until then, we are trying to catch up on last season’s Once Upon a Time. Our daughter couldn’t wait any longer for us, so she already started on this season. The bad thing is that she keeps trying to tell us what happens next, and we have to shush her. Ain’t nobody got time for spoilers! [Read more…]

The other day I had an aha moment. Now this wasn’t your typical happy jump around and dance moment. I was looking in the mirror when it happened. I saw this shimmer on the top of my head. At first, I thought it was a strand of hair that had gotten an extra dose of highlighting.

I moved in closer for a better look, and I realized that was not a blonde strand. That was most definitely a gray hair! Where in the world did that come from? Well, according to my youngest it is because his father and I are ancient and old as dirt.

The sad thing is that as I looked closer, I found a few more gray hairs. That’s when the aha happened. I may feel healthy and in the best shape of my life, but that doesn’t stop the old from showing up. It’s true, I am officially old! [Read more…]

Yes, I know when you hear the word salad you probably expect green leaves and veggies. But around here I have a thing for dessert salads. Now you are probably rolling your eyes at me right now because there is no way dessert and salad belong in the same sentence, let alone the same recipe.

But hear me out. What exactly is a salad? It is a base (lettuce) with lots of ingredients (veggies) mixed in or placed on top.

So, let’s look at the bowl of fluff in front of you. The base is made up of cream cheese and pie filling, and the mix-ins are marshmallows, cookie chunks, and fresh fruit. The way I see it, that’s a salad. Yes, a sweet dessert salad, but still a salad. Don’t try to argue with me. My mind is made up on this one. Wink, wink! [Read more…]

My husband has an old black Saab convertible that he loves driving around when the weather is warm and sunny. I don’t mind riding in it with him, but when the temperature gets over about 85 degrees it isn’t quite as comfortable. The black seats get hot very quickly, so getting in with shorts on is interesting.

And of course, the minute you stop moving, anyone sitting on those black seats starts to cook. These little things don’t stop my husband from enjoying his car.

Although, this week the temperature is supposed to be over 100 degrees here. Something tells me he will be getting his other car fixed pretty quickly. [Read more…]

My husband goes in spurts with his healthy eating. Most days he can say no to the desserts and treats that I pump out of our kitchen. I wish I had that kind of willpower.

A few months ago he decided that he was going to give up sugar and carbs for a while. Yes, right as I was in the middle of recipe testing for the cookbook, he stopped eating sweets. That limited my reliable taste testers by quite a bit. Thank goodness I have willing friends at church who are always ready to step up to the dessert eating challenge.

One night we stopped at the store to pick up a few ingredients I needed. Apparently the lack of sugar was finally starting to get to my hubby because while I was grabbing some cans of pie filling and cookies, he was looking over the chocolate baking bars. [Read more…]

It’s official. I have gone completely gaga for lemon. Well, as long as it is not overly tart. My tastebuds can only handle the lemon if it is a mild lemon flavor. Lemon treats used to not even get a second glance from me, so I have to keep taking baby steps with this flavor.

Last month I couldn’t stay out of the pan of the Best Lemon Bars. In fact, I’m pretty sure I ate most of the bars since my husband gave up sweets for Lent, and our kids think they do not like lemon.

Baby steps are needed to get them on board with the lemon goodness too, I guess. I thought for sure the mild lemon frosting and the hidden pocket of lemon filling in these cupcakes would do the trick. Unfortunately, I still don’t have them in love with coconut, so they boycotted my attempts. [Read more…]

Layers of vanilla cake, strawberry filling, and chocolate frosting make this easy Strawberry Mousse Cake a pretty and delicious dessert.

Each month I have a new flavor that I tend to go crazy for. Sometimes it coincides with a holiday or what is popular at the moment. Obviously in the fall and winter, pumpkin and peppermint get plenty of loving in my kitchen. Then usually I turn to coconut in January because I am trying to think tropical thoughts while snow is falling outside.

Since February is the love month, anything red is fair game. Right now I am gaga for strawberry everything! It might be my new go to flavor every year at this time.

Lucky for me, my family likes the red fruit in just about anything I can think of to bake. They are just happy I moved on from coconut…that one never gets as many smiles. [Read more…]

This time of year tends to get so busy as we start preparing for the holiday season. Parties, events with friends and family, dinners, decorating, and shopping all take so much of our time and energy.

During this busy season it is such a great time to remember all the things we have to be thankful for in our lives. Although this is really something we need to be doing year round. I do like to stop and pause and just think through the things in our life that I am so thankful for when life seems to get crazy.

We have healthy kids, a warm home to live in, and food on our table for every meal. Not to mention all the extra things we have and do each day. Be thankful for these things your life because there are so many hurting people who do not have these luxurious in their lives right now. My desire is to be open and have the opportunities to help those who come into my path with the extras I have been blessed with. [Read more…]

Summer officially started for us this week. Our kids are out of school. Bring on the sun, the shine, the pool, the ice cream, and all the fun that comes with these things.

Now obviously those things can’t happen every single day because work, cleaning, chores, and sports still keep going even though summer has arrived.

We need to create a list of fun things to do at the house for days we have to work because I know the kids are going to start asking to watch tv all day long.

Eating ice cream and banana splits are always good for hot summer days, so that needs to be on the list. What am I saying? Ice cream is good all year long, right? [Read more…]

Spring is pretty much here. The birds are chirping early in the morning, the grass is bright green from all the rain, and flowers are starting to appear in flower beds. With this nice weather comes lots of bonfires out on our back deck. And of course, when you have a fire, you have to make s’mores.

But s’mores are so messy…not to mention dangerous with children running around with pointy sticks. Whoever invented the first s’mores was not thinking clearly. I mean fire, sticks, and children? Ok, it had to have been someone who didn’t have kids. Anyway, even with all this gooey dangerous talk, we let our kids roast marshmallows. We know to keep our eyes open and to duck when those sticks start moving.

Want to know another fun way to enjoy a s’mores without the mess of a fire? This S’mores Latte can be in your hands in a matter of minutes.

A huge thank you to Lucky Leaf and Walmart for sponsoring this Blueberry Orange Cake. The delicate flavors of blueberry and orange work together to make this cake delicious.

Easter is this weekend and with all the fun and exciting plans we have going on, I wanted to create a delicious and easy cake that could be enjoyed without spending hours in the kitchen.

One of our favorite cakes is the poke cake. A poke cake is a simple cake mix cake that is “poked” while warm and then drizzled with sweetened condensed milk. It gives the cake that sweet and delicious texture. But then I took it to another level by adding Lucky Leaf Blueberry Pie Filling to the topping. [Read more…]
