Do you ever feel like you need a new perspective? Something energizing, exciting, refreshing. Ways to add variety to your day? Something that takes you away from the day-to-day grind and adds a little variety to your life, if only for a second? You know the drill. Wake up, get ready for the day, get your littles ready for the day, go about your day, come home at the end of the day, get everyone fed, go to bed at the end of the day and wake up to do it all over again. Don't get me wrong, ... View Post
Cheeseburger Chowder
I could eat soup all year round. How about you? Especially this Cheeseburger Chowder. Although it's still early August, the temperatures has been consistently cooler this past week and we woke up this morning to a fog that lingered until early afternoon. We spent a relaxed weekend morning at home, one that was much needed after go-go-going for community events and family gatherings the past several weekends. Summer weekends at home are especially enjoyable when the hubby doesn't have to be ... View Post
My Fear of Fireworks
Ironic, huh!? Considering the name of this blog, you would think I’ve always had a love of fireworks and food. Correction. I’ve always loved food and, until recently, I've had a fear of fireworks. When I was younger, I always looked forward to the 4th of July. Seeing my cousins at family barbecues, going to the park to watch a baseball game. These annual holiday outings were one of the highlights of summer vacation. The thrill of the holiday slowly diminished as a daunting, fearful doom ... View Post
Smoked Pork Pizza
I love food and I hate throwing things away, especially food. It’s wasteful and brings on a ping of guilt every time I throw out goopy lettuce or fuzzy lasagna. That's what I just had to find something delicious to make with our leftover smoked pork. You know when you buy an ingredient to try a new recipe and the rest of the jar/bottle/box/can sits in your fridge or pantry because you only know how to use it in the one recipe. Or when you make WAY too much of something and the leftovers sit ... View Post
Our Epic 4th of July Celebration
4th of July was a few short weeks ago (where has the time gone?) and I think we've finally caught our breath and have adjusted back to our normal routine following the epic 4th of July celebration we host every year at our home. Independence Day is our favorite holiday for many reasons. Warm sun, green grass, gatherings with family and friends, kids playing, fireworks displays and delicious food (there's always food) - what's better than all that?! This holiday creates some of the vibrant ... View Post
5 Insights After Diving Into Something New
Well here we go. This blog is officially live. I'm diving into something new. My waving commitment to share my ideas, mishaps and insights in a way the whole world can see has been dragging on for quite some time. "Thanks, inner critic" (note the sarcasm). However, this deterrence had a silver lining. This process has taught me a lot about myself, or rather, confirmed what I was already learning about myself. The ebbs and flows of launching a blog have solidified an understanding of my process ... View Post
