Orange Chicken For Dummies
This Orange Chicken is one of the most popular recipes on my blog, and for good reason! A slow cooker meal that is completely delicious is bound to be awesome. Lance works in Wyoming during the cold season. He's home maybe 2 or 3 days and then he's gone about 2 weeks. Or longer. Which stinks. His family is nearby, which helps. Lance's brother and his wife live right behind us and always help out when needed. Like when my bath tub drain lever breaks off. Or my … [Read more...]

Shortcut Linzer Cookies
These are another favorite cookie of mine. They remind me of Christmas, since that is when my aunt makes her Linzer cookies and give them out to us. They are so melt-in-your mouth delicious. They are very dangerous to eat. I can never stop at just one!The traditional Linzer Cookie has two layers with the jam in between. I made a shortcut version that tastes just as amazing with less time and effort.I add finely crushed pecans, but you don't have to. But I think you really should. You … [Read more...]

Monster Green Smoothie
I'm sure by now that many of you have heard of green smoothies. Made with spinach or other greens and fruit that are so healthy (so much so, in fact, that I'm not sure why it's appearing on my blog!) and full of fiber and iron and protein if you use peanut butter. Here's a site to read up on the Green Monster Movement. There's also lots more recipes for variations on the green smoothie. To me it looks like a green monster got blended up. So I just can't look at it while I drink it. It's in my … [Read more...]
