This. This casserole was my all time FAVORITE dish that my mama used to make for us, for dinner, growing up. I’m not sure if it was a side dish or a main dish, but whatever it was, I LOVED it. I’m pretty sure she made it as a main dish. One of my favorite things about… Continue reading Rice, Corn, and Cheese Casserole
A few weekends ago Food Network was on, and Mark walked by and saw Trisha Yearwood was making this Mashed Potato Casserole with Bacon on top. He actually stopped walking and said “Ah man that looks good”. Later that day he asked “Can you make that potato casserole that was on tv?”. Sure husband. See, what… Continue reading Mashed Potato Casserole
I always forget that I can do amazing things with watermelon when I buy it. Usually I’m just so exctited to cut it open and chop it up, that I end up consuming half the entire thing before I realize what happened. However, am I the only one who feels like they are playing Russian Roulette when… Continue reading Watermelon Feta Salad

Which is where another… Continue reading Vegetable Casserole with Tofu Topping – Sounds Gross, But it’ll Change Your Life

And then I made the Pretzel Bites. Sorry Floor. I hadn’t seen Floor (that’s her name, I’m not talking about a… Continue reading Vegan Pretzel Bites and a Visit from a Dutch Friend
Do you ever have one of those days where everything just goes perfectly? Today was that day. And it’s mother’s day. Fitting, Very fitting. Mark made the whole day about me. It was great. Can everyday be about me? I mean seriously how cool would that be? He started by making me breakfast in bed.… Continue reading Mother’s Day
The day started out normal. Our little happy family woke up, ate breakfast, and then we decided to do chores. I took care of the inside (dishes, laundry, etc), and Mark went to the backyard to mow the lawn. He was out there for about 2 hours and when I finally went to check on… Continue reading Mark Smoked out the Whole Neighborhood. Almost.
