Golf Themed Jello Dessert

16 May

Hello friends! Spring is here and the green hills of the course call men from near and far… In honor of this weekend’s 2019 PGA Championship I thought I’d share with you my golf-themed jello dessert. I have mentioned before about my family’s love of watching The Masters every year. This year’s Masters was unforgettable and so exciting to watch….

May Day Baskets

28 Apr

Hello again friends! I remember in elementary school me and my classmates doing a maypole dance with a pole attached to many colored ribbons. I didn’t understand why we were doing this nor was I coordinated enough to figure the dance out…with all of the ups and downs and loop-de-loops. It was odd. And difficult. Fast forward to several years…

Lady Banks Roses

Lady Banks Roses

4 Apr

My Lady Banks Roses are in full bloom. They are so beautiful with their delicate yellow blooms and vining branches that just monopolize a space. Donnie and our neighbor, Jonathan, built this pergola for me several years ago specifically to plant Lady Banks Roses on. I researched different vines and found this thornless spring bloomer was exactly what I wanted….

Harry Potter Christmas Tree

Harry Potter Christmas Tree

21 Dec

For the last few months I have been sharing Harry Potter ornament crafts. Today,  I am happy to reveal my Harry Potter Christmas tree! Hedwig sits perched at the top while the tree is filled with all things Harry. I chose a Gryffindor color scheme with scarlet (burgundy) and gold. Here are some of the decorations I used.  I began…

Thanksgiving debate…turkey or ham? I have made m Thanksgiving debate…turkey or ham?
I have made many turkeys on Thanksgiving Day, but my fam chooses ham.  This year, I will most likely order a honey baked ham for our dinner.  Not only will it save me time and energy, I am positive that all leftovers (if there are any) will be eaten. 
Do you serve something other than turkey on Thanksgiving?
Regardless of what is eaten on your day of thanks, be sure you set a pretty table!  Here’s one of my tables decorated in happy colors for Fall.
I hope you have a blessed and happy weekend!

Well, October means chocolate candy to me!🍫🍫🍫
One of my favorite childhood candy treats is Reese’s @reeses peanut butter cups.
You just can’t go wrong with the delicious combination of peanut butter and chocolate. 
When my daughter was planning a Halloween party, I knew I wanted to make Muddy Buddies but decided to go all-out by throwing in everything chocolate, peanut butter and Reese’s to make an unbelievable snack treat. 
The recipe is on the blog!
WARNING—Do not make this alone like I did. You will need supervision to make sure taste testing is held to a minimum!

I recently showed how to make the extract on the blog and calculated how much it cost to make…not to mention a blind taste test with the family to see if the homemade extract really tasted better than store bought. 
The results surprised even me!
