Chicken Cordon Bleu Redo

If you know me at all, you know that I love Chicken Cordon Bleu. It’s my most favorite food in the whole world. My step-dad got me hooked when I was a child. I can remember him making Chicken Cordon Bleu with ham, Swiss cheese, and using crushed corn flakes as a breading. I love that hint of sweet from the cornflakes mixed with Swiss cheese. Over the years I have adapted and changed his recipe. I’ve used bread crumbs for the crust and the ever present toothpicks to hold it all together. I’ve baked it, fried it, and re-purposed it in many ways. I stick to the basic principles but love to test out new ways to make this classic dish.

Feature Friday With Family And Friends #DIY Pregnancy Announcement

Hi all!! Happy Friday! It’s been a crazy busy week for me!

I’ve come up with an idea! I have so many talented family members and friends that are always cooking up something delicious, doing some really cool DIY projects, or throwing some fun event. I’ve decided to do a post called Feature Friday With Family And Friends! Sometimes I will have my hand in the cookie jar on these posts and sometimes I will be elbow deep. Other times it will be a spotlight on that particular family member or friend and strictly showcase how talented they are! I thought this would be a great way to show off the fun, cool, and creative things that I get to see and you wouldn’t because these folks don’t have a blog. Continue reading →

Easy Peasy Cinnamon Roll Apple Turnovers only 2 Ingredients

Easy Peasy 2 Ingredient Cinnamon Roll Apple Turnovers

So, my mom decided to come for an impromptu overnight visit this weekend with my niece in tow. I told my mom I had some canned cinnamon rolls we could make for the kids as a quick breakfast. (I’m currently working on redoing a wicker couch and can take a little help from a quick can of cinnamon rolls.) Since my mom is so creative and a plain old can of cinnamon rolls was just too boring, it’s time to think outside the box! I asked if my mom could come up with a fun way to cook cinnamon rolls. Something a little more creative than just placing on the pan and baking. Immediately we both spouted off two totally different ideas. Today in honor of my mom’s visit over the weekend, I want to share her creative twist on a can of cinnamon rolls. Continue reading →

8 Rules Of Puke Club-How To Avoid The Stomach Virus

I’m knocking on wood for even writing this blog post. Praying I don’t get sick just from talking about puke club. I read somewhere on the internet one time that the stomach virus was tested on a surface for a 2 week time period and still showed up positive. After the two week period they quit testing. The stomach virus is a gnarly little bug!

If you’ve never dealt with the stomach bug then bless your hearts! But for the rest of us who have a child that’s caught the bug and it’s ran rampant through your family, this post is for you! I don’t like to use the word hate but I HATE HATE HATE the stomach bug! It’s the most awful terrible thing to deal with! Every time my kiddo would come home with the stomach bug, it was a waiting game to see when we would all get sick. Well, not anymore! I found some great ways to keep the dreaded bug at bay!

First rule of puke club…Do not kiss your child! I know that sounds harsh and I know what you’re thinking…that is part of comforting your child, but how comforting will you be if you are laying on the cold bathroom floor and hugging the porcelain throne? Wouldn’t you rather be fully able to take care of your sick kids? I’ve been the momma that has cuddled her baby who’s had the stomach bug only to throw up within the next 24 hrs. After that I was useless. JUST DON’T DO IT! Continue reading →

Spending Time With Friends In The Bootheel

It’s kinda like my own personal life Pinterest board. I haven’t shared many stories that don’t involve some kind of completed project up to this point but when you’ve spent a great weekend with great friends it’s kinda hard not to put it on blast. Sometimes it’s just fun to share your adventures and sights and things you’ve learned along the way. Continue reading →
