I love to use my crockpot on the weekends and last weekend was no exception (I can never quite get it together on a weekday morning.) I made split pea soup. Now don't think "gross".

Graham Cracker Treats
Graham cracker treats are a simple little goodie from my childhood. I can picture my mom sitting down at the table with a box of graham crackers and a can of frosting, methodically churning out these little sandwiches.

Dairy-Free Nacho Dip
Every year for the Superbowl, if Benzo and I aren't going to a party, we try to make something special to eat rather than a regular old dinner.

Breadmaker Misfire
There is nothing like coming home to a house that smells like freshly baked bread. Until you find this in the breadmaker: I have no idea what went wrong. It's still edible as we enjoyed hunks of it with some soup tonight. But it's definitely not going to make the sandwiches I intended. Back to… Continue reading Breadmaker Misfire
