This soup is so rich and creamy with just the right … Continue reading Chicken Gnocchi Soup

Mashed Potatoes...YUM! Right?! The best comfort food! I use butter, milk and cream cheese for my mashed potatoes. Yes, cream cheese.

I tried buttermilk but it's a bit … Continue reading Creamiest Mashed Potatoes

Because of a genetic mutation, MTHFR c677t, my body doesn't process folic acid and a few other synthetic vitamins...So, I'm finding new ways to bake/cook using un-enriched ingredients. I found an … Continue reading Chocolate Cake from scratch

This past Saturday, my daughter spoke at an activity with Girls in Aviation at Harvey Field in Snohomish, WA. I'm hoping she'll write a guest blog post about the event...but she's a bit busy...starting college at 15yrs old! 🙂 Since it was just my hubby and I for a few hours, we took some time … Continue reading Antiquing with the Hubby

This meal is actually perfect for any time of the day…I love it for dinner as well. I pretty much love any type of egg & meat scramble, but this one was … Continue reading Ham, Apple, Sweet Potato, Egg Scramble
Thinking of my Gramma a lot the last few days. She was a wonderful godly lady and I miss her terribly. I can close my eyes and hear her singing this great old hymn. She gave her life to Christ and shared the Gospel message with everyone she met. I take comfort in knowing that … Continue reading Memories
