BARBECUE MEATLOAF
Barbecue Meatloaf is a family favorite in our house and there are so many variations! My family is not a big fan of regular meatloaf, however when I made this variation and shaped them into individual servings, they went crazy for them!
MARRY ME CHICKEN TORTELLINI
Marry Me Chicken has been a recipe that’s been passed down and shared for quite some time. There are variations in a skillet, crock-pot, even instant pot/pressure cooker! After trying a few different versions, we have finally settled on this recipe, which I’ve tested and tweaked to get just right!

JULY REWIND {2023}
As so many are winding down their summer vacations or maybe making a last minute weekend trip, I hope you reflect on the joys and fun you had making memories this summer. Our summer has been simple, no big trips, just lots of days in the sunshine, playing in the splash pad and making memories!
EASY WEEKNIGHT PASTA BAKE
Everyone needs that one meal that can be pre-prepped, frozen and tossed in the oven on nights when mom isn’t going to be home. Because for some reason, the people that live here still think they should be fed 🤣🤣. I started making this Pasta Bake meal and realized that besides being SO easy, it can also be prepped in bulk and frozen.

BACKYARD GARDEN
Last year I successful grew ONE green bean plant. It produced enough to have green beans as a side for 5 or 6 meals and I was HOOKED on gardening. Then in September, I taught myself how to can food and again I was HOOKED.

PRACTICAL PRIME DAY 2023
When I was thinking about how I wanted to share Prime Day with you, I really kept feeling this nudge to stay practical. It’s easy to go through and grab every deal on electronics or the deepest discount, but I always want the deals that I share with you to 1) be something I’ve tried and stand behind and 2) for it to be something that is useful for you and your everyday life!
