Warm Potato Salad with Bacon and Onion Recipe

Since I posted the recipe for  my Mama’s Southern Potato Salad I haven’t been able to stop thinking about the other potato salad. The one  I loved so when we traveled in Germany. Warm, bacon-y, light, and oddly enough it had no mayonnaise, eggs, or mustard. I decided as soon as I published the Southern [...]

Challah Bread Recipe

I used to take it for granted. The smell of yeast as it foams in the bowl, gnawing away at the sugar feeding it. It is a smell I’ve always known, one that would greet me as I walked into either of my Grandmother’s kitchens as they prepared loaves of bread for sandwiches or rolls [...]

Cardboard Boat Regatta

  Every year for the past few years, my family has participated in the cardboard boat regatta in support of the animal shelter at the lake where we all love to visit and play. Not only is the cardboard boat regatta a day filled with fun, it is for a wonderful cause. This year’s event [...]

Cardboard Boat Races, Puppy Dogs, and Mother’s Day {Mingle Monday}

I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s Day weekend! Didn’t it seem to fly by? Our weekend started at the lake for Little Buddy to participate with his cousins in a cardboard boat regatta to benefit the local animal shelter. This was their fourth year competing and I have to say it is one [...]

Springtime Asparagus Tart Recipe

  Bright green stalks of asparagus are popping up all around lately – at our local farmer’s market and in the produce department at my grocery store. I keep kicking myself that they would also be shooting up in my garden right about now if I’d just have planted them a few years ago when [...]

Strawberries and Cream Stuffed French Toast Recipe

  Mother’s Day is just right around the corner and it always seems to bring with it the endless advertisements for kitchen appliances and gadgets.

Cranberry Pineapple Sorbet Recipe {Simply Cranberry Cocktail}

As the school year is winding to a close, I realized my niece will be starting her final summer of high school. Which caused me to then realize that this time next year, she’ll be off to college! Where did the time go? It just seems like yesterday we were celebrating her fourth birthday with [...]

Take the Shot :: Part 2 {Mingle Monday}

I decided to take my friend’s advice and try more things with my camera this past week. She told me the best way to learn the ins and outs of my camera, lighting, and photography in general is to get out there and take the shot. Study the settings, study the results, and begin to [...]

Jalapeno Tuna Melt Recipe

Growing up, one of my favorite meals that my Mama would make were her tuna melts. Now, I’m sure they were most likely like every other tuna melt that Mama’s across the country were making for their families, but my Mama’s tuna melts always tasted extra special.  Even better than the tuna melts that I’d [...]
