ArchivesCinnamon & Chocolate Chip Pumpkin Cookies
You know it's going to be a good recipe when the title is so long I can't even use my normal "Monday Morning Mmmm" with it! And, really, I've begun believing that anything with chocolate and pumpkin is a good thing! Now, don't yell at me! I made - and ate - these...
Monday Morning Mmmm: Cinnamon Fruit Dip
My mom hosted a tea party this weekend. She pulled out her fine china and her prettiest platters, she filled pitchers with hot tea and hot chocolate, and she put tiny doilies on fancy plates. My aunt, cousins and several friends gathered around a few tables to visit...
Monday Morning Mmmm: Brownie Cupcakes
Are you the kind of person who says things like, "Oh, this is just too rich!" or "You know, chocolate's not my thing. I can take it or leave it"? Then you should probably just keep moving on. I mean, come back tomorrow for a new post, but today? Just keep on clickin'....
Monday Morning Mmmm: Baked Chicken Taquitos
I suppose it's possible that if the Chiefs ever made it to the Superbowl, I'd care about the game more. But considering I don't really care about Chiefs games in general (and, let's be honest, based on the past 40+ years, this is not a likely scenario), it's doubtful....
Monday Morning Mmmm: Banana Berry Smoothie
A couple weeks ago my husband took out the trash (yay) before I had the chance to put some spoiled food in the garbage (boo). I mentioned that to Mark, exasperated, and he said, "Oh yeah, I meant to grab that bag of bananas from the freezer. They look disgusting!"...
Monday Morning Mmmm: Parmesan Knots
Remember when I said I was going to start sharing more healthy recipes with you this year? Yeah, I don't really know what to tell you. I blame Pinterest, but clearly someone else is to blame because time and time again, I tag, pin and otherwise bookmark recipes for...
Monday Morning Mmmm: Superbowl Party Food
Fire up the Crock Pots. It's time for the Superbowl! I'm actually not having a Superbowl party at my house this year. But if I were, I'd make some awesome food for my guests! (And she's modest, too!) Okay, I realize food is not the most important thing [to some...
Monday Morning Mmmm: White Chicken Enchiladas
Several months ago I decided to make chicken enchiladas but I fancied them up with lots of veggies and a new recipe. Those enchiladas were pretty good, but for a regular dinner on a regular night, I prefer something a bit simpler. I have a chicken enchilada recipe...
Monday Morning Mmmm: Cake Batter Bark
A few years ago I worked part-time at a scrapbooking store. I fell in love with various supplies - stickers, paper, tools, you name it - on a regular basis. But when I came across a set of birthday themed papers in the clearance bin one night, I was a goner. I loved...
Monday Morning Mmmm :: Best of 2011
You know what's ridiculous? Renewing my dedication to healthy eating in between Thanksgiving and Christmas. You know what's brilliant but annoying? Telling me that I'd better stop trying and sharing so many yummy recipes if I want to lose weight. [Thank you very much,...
Monday Morning Mmmm: Chicken Enchilada Casserole
Nearly every Friday night, Smitty comes over for dinner. And nearly every Friday night, I panic. See, Smitty has been trying to eat mostly gluten-free for several months - and she's cutting down on dairy, too. Have you met me? I've never met a gluten or a dairy I...
