No Churn Cinnamon Ice Cream
Life: Our latest project has been buying a new bed. Well, mattress, mattresses. We have a great headboard/footboard, a huge king sized espresso sleigh bed, which I adore. And we had an oh so comfortable (for me at least) plush mattress, but it’s hit that way too worn out point (where it was starting to…
Grilled Pork Chops With Mediterranean Inspired Tapenade
Life: Ever have one of those klutzy days? Me… Yeah, last Monday. It’s Monday morning, and we make it out the door to swim lessons just a few minutes late. We get through the locker room getting everyone showered, swim suited up, etc., just in time to get the kids to class. I walk the…
Cajun Shrimp Alfredo
Life Updates: I’ve started swimming again. Back in high school, I was on the swim team for a time, and I loved being in the water. It was hard work, and I felt half drowned 2/3rds of the time, but I kind of loved it anyway. Despite that, I really haven’t been swimming for years now,…
Michelle’s Best Dry Rub
Life is good my friends. Aiden is officially done with school for the year. Yay for the lack of morning mad rush to school. Yay for sleeping in! Well, actually the kids get up at exactly the same time anyway, so maybe no sleeping in. But at least I get to do coffee and breakfast…
Berries and Cream Tartlets

I’m ready for sunshine, backyard BBQ, ice cream, and swimsuit season! (Well, ok, I’m never actually ready for swimsuit season, but I’d like to be….
No Churn Chocolate Peanut Butter Swirl Ice Cream
No churn ice cream recipes have been hurtling their way around the internet for at least a few years now. I’ve been meaning to give the whole concept a try, preeetty much since I started blogging. Brilliant right? Homemade ice cream that doesn’t require special equipment, tons of advanced thought, chilling of bowls, custards, etc; but…
Brisket Stuffed Burgers
We’ve been building up to it for days. First there was the homemade BBQ Sauce, then the Darn Good Oven Brisket, finally the Homemade Buns. And here we finally are, ready to make these epic, brisket stuffed burgers. Let me tell you these burgers are make no apologies, all about the meat. Warning: after consuming you may notice sudden urges to race outside, beat on…
Homemade BBQ Sauce
I’ve noticed lately that the longer I’ve cooked with the intent of developing the dish into a shareable recipes, the more sensitive to different tastes I’ve gotten. I can taste and identify ingredients in recipes much better then I could a year or two ago; even recipes that aren’t my own. It’s kind of cool,…
Strawberry Riesling Popsicles
It’s the fourth, meaning July is truly upon us. It’s h-o-t baby! I can certainly tell you the AC is running full blast at my house. Actually you need a sweater in my house. Unfortunately all my sweaters are frozen together. (My husband really likes his air conditioner. I think his internal thermometer is completely defective.)…
