04/06/201904/13/20194 Comments I found these beautiful sweet peppers at Lidl the other day and I have been trying to figure out what I wanted to make with them. I really didn’t want to cut them up and just add them do a dish, I wanted them to BE the dish…..bacon, you can’t go wrong with […]

A creamy, cheesy, full of flavor side kick that is Muy bien!!! I feel in love with the sweet treat and have been wanting some since moving […]
08/03/20161 Comment Yesterday was the busiest day I have had in so long. The kiddo woke up covered in hives, the hubbyman was already scheduled for day surgery to repair his shoulder and I did not have time for the nervous breakdown that I deserved, but I did have time to make them both Chicken […]
Kids love pizza, okay I love pizza too. This is a quick lunch, it’s fun and it tastes really good. I don’t think I would call this a recipe, maybe I will just call it a Kitchen Idea. The kids are gonna love ya. Four to six pieces of loaf bread 1/2 can of tomato […]

Chocolate has been the center of Valentine’s Day since the late 1800s, no really… I looked it up ( Ahhh Goggle, what would I do without you? ) What better way to say I love you than to make your sweetie homemade chocolates! Did I mention […]
Welcome Fall !!! The first thing I think of when Fall comes back around is comfort food. In coastal North Carolina it may be Fall on the Calendar, but the thermometer says otherwise. I wanted the feel of comfort but not in this heat! PIMENTO CHEESE!! It’s easy to make, but not too heavy. This […]

07/26/201807/26/2018Leave a comment I was going to title this Melody’s Chicken Salad and in my mind that is exactly what it is. My daughter adores chicken or turkey ( a Thanksgiving leftover staple) salad with grapes. I like it with the grapes … I also like to kick in a few Granny Smith Apples from […]

12/20/20172 Comments I can’t decide which I love more; Christmas or Cookies? It’s a constant tug-o-war in my life. No, really…it is. I don’t bake very much in the warmer months, I am actually not much of a baker at all , but I can throw down a mean cookie! Cookies from a roll […]
10/28/2016Leave a comment I have flown in planes and I have been to the top of the Rocky Mountains, but I have never had the opportunity to touch a cloud, but I’d be willing to bet they taste like vanilla butter cream frosting! I have always been a fan of butter cream, I have always […]
08/10/202208/10/20221 Comment I know Fall is on the horizon, but I am not quite ready to let go of all those Summer flavors. With the help of my pal Vanessa, I have created this yummy cucumber side. Now mine is spicy because I used hot pepper vinegar, but you can easily add red pepper flakes, […]
