A Dirty Matcha Story
Excerpt: If you like green tea and you’ve never had Matcha, you’ll LOVE it. If you don’t like green tea, you should still give it a try. Matcha is smooth and does not have the bitter taste of green tea.
A Ginger Dressing Story with a side of Pepperoncini
Daddy oooh’d and ah’d over the salad dressing even though mom made it and he’d probably had it a thousand times. He also smacked and told me I should try the peppers because they’re really good.
Letter To Shelter-At-Home Cooks
Just so happens this weeks writing prompt is “What’s cookin’?” Since recipes don’t fall out of the sky, I’m sharing this one.
Healthy Blog Fodder: Matcha better than last week
Green people are following me on Twitter
I assume it's from me sharing my Yummly recipe collection 50 Shades of Green Smoothies (504 so far) or the ones I've actually made and shared on Instagram. Either way, they think I'm healthy. So I needed to post something on top of last weeks Belgian Waffles and South Carolina Moonshine.
Belgian Waffles & South Carolina Moonshine
Well I finally got tired of my last post being my last post that looked my last post, so here I am with a new one fresh off of writer's block. While I was away, I changed my blog design for the 100th time. I wish I could paint and redecorate my office with a few strokes of html and css.
Red "Red" Velvet Cupcakes
I call these Red Red Velvet cupcakes because they are super red. I also have a Chocolate Red Velvet Cupcake recipe, so I can distinguish one from the other in my recipe manager.
Pinterest Recipes: A Needle in a Haystack...
I have three "food" boards - Recipes I have tried, Recipes I should try and Weight Watchers.
It drives me nuts when I am looking for a recipe that I know I pinned, and of course I'll be looking for it from my phone, while in the parking lot of a grocery store.
Kitchen Sink Salad
This is my fourth and last Salad Saturday and it's my favorite. I call it the kitchen sink salad because there are so many ways you can dress it. Maybe I should have called it the Mix & Match salad.
Any leftovers?
A great salad with chicken leftover, for when you don't want what they're having...
Stinks so delicious...
The only thing that I don't like about Salmon is that it doesn't smell good while its cooking - especially if you aren't the one eating it. This is usually a treat I have for myself when I can enjoy it without all the comments. "Mom WHAT is that smell!?"
Insane Wellness...
That title seemed appropriate since I have gone through 27 days of the Insanity workout. Something about exercising makes we want to do better in other areas of my life. I've traded wine for Cranberry Juice (still using a wine glass). I don't crave M&Ms anymore, and the need for chocolate at all seems to be reserved for around that time. I love salads. Since I can’t get all of my nutrients from candy and ice cream, salads will have to do...
The third time's a charm...
I have a new job title: Not SAHM
A Pecan Candy Story
I dare you to try this at home...
I'm talking about making Pecan Candy or Pralines, depending on where you are from.
My husband is from Louisiana and his people call it Pecan (Pah-Khan) Candy.
