Penne Pasta with Three Cheese Broccoli Cream Sauce

Our broccoli has been used, and it was a success! I must admit that my sauce didn’t turn out exactly like the sauce in my prior post. I got carried away with my new immersion blender and surprise, surprise…it resembled broccoli soup! But, I went full steam ahead on making…

Fluffy 4 Ingredient Peanut Butter Frosting

Beware…this frosting is really tasty!  It pairs well with chocolate, yellow, marble or white cupcakes and is equally as good on banana bread or graham crackers.  And, it is super easy to make.  It is also made with all fresh ingredients and no chemicals.  I am pretty sure we don’t…

Taking after Mom…and Applesauce Making

One of the best compliments I can receive is that I take after my mom. My daughter has made this statement several times lately and it makes me smile. She says, with a grin on her face, you are becoming “just like Grandma” in this area or that. I say…

Just in case I don’t use my Mason Jars enough, here is another tip I found as I was checking out a couple of blogs this morning! (I am not sure why I chose an exclamation point at the end of that sentence…I guess I am a bit excited. 🙂…

“Fall is Here” Beef Stew

On cool days like these pot roast seems like the perfect, warm, comfort food. That was my plan today, but time escaped me. Time for the second best, warm comfort food…beef stew! Today is our littlest one’s 1st birthday. We are so grateful to God for him! We are also…
