While I was away in Duluth this week, my tart tins arrived. I had ordered a little cookbook to get some ideas on what kinds of mini pies or tarts I could make. I had found a mango tart online and thought I’d give that one a try first. However, since coming back from [...]

The kids and I have never been on any kind of vacation since they’ve been with me. We’ve traveled to Duluth for a day, but that’s pretty much it. This week was their Spring break from School and I had taken Tuesday through Thursday (today) off. Last week I said to myself, self…let’s go to [...]

Another beautiful day here in MN as we come to a near end of March. The grass has turned green (much sooner than it did last year), the flowers are starting to bloom, and leaves are starting to bud on the trees. What does that mean? The window are opened up, the kids can play [...]

Growing up we had the Push Pops that tasted like an Orange Dreamsicle! The Ice Cream man would come down our street and we run out and get a Bomb Pop or a Push Pop. Yesterday I saw how to make a Shamrock Shake just like McDonalds. So I made a strawberry shake instead. Today [...]

I’m not Irish. I normally don’t celebrate the holiday. In fact, this year I’ll be at my grandson’s 2nd birthday party! I could wear green I suppose!! But in celebration for those that are Irish or those that simply love chocolate done any way, then this one is for you. It requires no putting in [...]

It’s 8:00pm on a Tuesday night. Kids are in bed and I’m ready to make chocolate chip cookies. I put my PJs and slippers on and start to grab all of the ingredients that I need. I go to grab my sugar canister and it’s near empty. I open my lazy susan and roll it [...]
