Happy Friday! Recently, I made a few batches of iced lemon cookies for a fundraiser at work. Actually, I ended up making 7 dozen iced lemon cookies. That’s a whole lotta cookies, folks!
Today I’m going to share this recipe with you for anyone looking for a great springtime or summer cookie recipe! We have a restaurant in town called Ham N’ Goody’s and their famous lemon cookies are the BEST! So I’ve been told. Oddly enough, I myself am not too wild about lemon cookies, but still I bake 7 dozen. Yeah, I’m weird like that. [Please click to continue reading...]

Hi there! If you follow me on Facebook or Instagram, you might have seen a sneak peek at my hot wings we were cooking up yesterday for the Super Bowl game. The hubby was pumped about cooking up some homemade hot wings, and I have to say they were pretty darn good! I’m going to share our recipe with you in case you want to make up a ”spicy” dish for your man on Valentine’s or anytime! ;)
Our recipe is an adaptation with some modification from the cookbook, Bless Your Heart, by Patsy Caldwell and Amy Wilson. If you haven’t seen this book, you can check out my 5 Can Soup that came from that same cookbook. Perfect for a cold day!

This week has been a tough one. While my heart is still heavy with sorrow and I’m praying everyday for everyone affected by the tragic events in Newtown, Connecticut, I know I must find a way to carry on.

We’ve all been there. It’s two weeks before Christmas and there is still shopping to finish, presents to wrap, homemade goodies to bake, and a home to prepare for family, visitors, and new gifts! Sometimes at the end of the day, I just collapse from all the excitement and running around! Am I the only one??!! Surely not. That’s why I love this easy sausage and egg breakfast casserole recipe! It’s my go-to for when family is visiting or for {Read More}
Hey there! How’s the week going for ya? In case you couldn’t tell, I’m all geared up for Fall around here and what better way to settle in for the season than with some home cooked comfort food? I love some good southern food and I love to cook it up, but time is not a friend of mine most days and that means I’m always looking for recipes that are easy to prepare. Today, I’m going to share with {Read More}
