Kit Kat Ice Cream
What I really should call this ice cream is "Kitty Cat" ice cream. My children are getting to the point where homemade ice cream is no longer impressive to them. They are so jaded. I try to tell them that not all mom's make their kids ice cream from scratch. But they don't believe me. When I made this, they were skeptical, but once they tasted it, they begged for more. "Mama, can I have some more kitty cat ice cream?" Maybe I still can impress them every now and again. This recipe comes from … [Read More...]

Oven Fried Chicken…
We recently have started a new little tradition. For the last few months, we have been going out for a late Sunday brunch. Even though I am not a huge breakfast eater, I do like to eat breakfast food later in the day. We try to go someplace different every week, but we keep going [...]
Slow Cooker BBQ Chicken…
This month Lazy Susan is tackling the idea of slow cooked. I stumbled upon this recipe in Southern Living Magazine, and even though it has quite a few parts, I knew that it would be worth making. I was right. If you just make the chicken component, you will have found a great recipe that [...]
Leaving on a Jet Plane…
Lately, I have been doing a ton of freelance work. Creating and shooting recipes is so much fun, but a lot of times, I do not get to to share them here. I am on my way to Nashville, and going to leave you with some of the my favorite recipes from around the web [...]

Honey Pistachio Cake with…
Thank you very much for the nice comments on my last post. My son’s elbow is doing better. He was supposed to get a plaster cast yesterday, but it is still too swollen, so were aiming for Monday. He is is less pain, but he needs to take it easy, and that is proving to [...]
Chocolate Yogurt Cake…
My poor baby broke his elbow yesterday. He was playing on the monkey bars at school and fell and landed on his elbow. It was very long day at the hospital getting him fixed up, and he was a trooper. I know that he was in a lot of pain, and he took it like [...]
Lemon Thyme Cupcakes with…
As you can see, my sweet little spot on the Internet has gotten a facelift. It was time to make a change and I was overjoyed to work with two people again (the same duo that created the new look for The Creative Mama) that make this process so easy and enjoyable. Jane Johnson of [...]

The Luck of the Irish…
I spent the afternoon baking treats for my children to take to school. It is not St. Patrick’s Day without some Rainbow Cupcakes, now is it? William’s class is having a green food tasting. I made a compromise with him, if I could make something that I wanted, then I would make something that he [...]
Nutty Irishman Cupcakes…
I really want to be Irish. Like, real bad. I am not Irish at all, but I am still hopeful. I think that maybe if I pretend that I am Irish long enough, I can be an honorary Irishman. In the spirit of being Irish, I always make some St. Patrick’s Day treats. I love [...]
Irish Coffee Blondies…
This week was a doozy. On so many levels, it was just bad. I cracked my iPhone and had to replace it, I cracked a tooth and need to get a crown, William was sick, Clay was sick, things that needed to get done did not, the list goes on. And then, I remembered that [...]
