If you have read my blog for a while, you will know that I love chai tea. I make Chai Lattes and I add chai tea and spices to anything I think I can get away with like sweet potatoes, pudding, and doughnuts. So it was only natural for me to want to try itRead More

Cookies and Cream Fudge
My oldest son’s favorite flavor is cookies and cream. It doesn’t matter if it ice-cream, cake, or candy. I know that if cookies and cream is an option, it is the one he will take. He might occasionally take a few minutes considering all of his options, but inevitably he will choose cookies and cream.Read More
Rapidly Roasted Pot Roast and Vegetables
I came down with a stomach flu on Thursday evening. I know this is a totally unappetizing way to start a post, but if you will hang with me I promise not to overshare. It was the worst flu I have ever experienced. Stick with me, I promise, no gory details. I didn’t eat on Friday orRead More
How I Find Sales on Meat
I have scored great deals on ground turkey several times this year. The last one was the best. I saved an additional $3.00 per package on extra lean ground turkey and it was already on sale for $3.99. So I paid $0.99 for 1 1/4 for extra lean ground turkey. Yeah, I was jazzed and I wasRead More
Grilled Curry Steak with Spicy Lentils
There are a few things that my husband and I do not agree on: Who is the better poet: Walt Whitman or Dr. Seuss? Was Lincoln really the best president EVER? Should steak be served with some pink or burnt to a crisp? I cannot tell you how many times we have been about toRead More
Curried Chicken Pasta Salad
I like cold salads because I can get away with adding raw vegetables, so it cuts down on the amount of cooking I have to do. I can also make them in advance and just pull them out of the refrigerator and serve on busy nights. This is a spicy twist on traditional chicken andRead More

Menu Plan Week of October 9th
The weather has finally cooled off and I am turning my creative juices to baking. I will continue putting up vegetables since I was able to protect my garden from the nights of freezing temperatures last week. This week’s dinner menu is simple so I don’t have to work too hard to prepare dinner after baking and canning this week.Read More
Red Clover Tea Recipe
You can use clover flowers to make this red clover tea recipe. My husband would prefer a weed-free lawn, but indulges my desire to allow the dandelions and clover to coexist with the grass. We do not put chemicals on our lawn, so that we may enjoy our weeds. 🙂 Red clover is a sourceRead More
Chai Spiced French Toast
When I am out with my 4 year old, people often tell me to “enjoy this time because they grow up so fast”. I just smile and say that I will. I know the years fly by because my oldest child is 21, but I also know that there are days that feel like an eternityRead More
DIY Foaming Soap
In the early ’90’s I made the switch from bar soap to liquid soap. Since replacing the disposable soap dispensers was expensive and wasteful, I bought ceramic soap dispensers and bought large refill bottles of liquid soap. I continued doing this for 18 years, but last summer as I was buying a refill bottle I spiedRead More
Frugal Topical Analgesic: Vaporizing Rub
When my husband asked me what I wanted for Christmas, I said a gym membership. I found a gym that had a monthly fee of $12.95, free daycare, and no long term commitments. I have really enjoyed the Pilates and yoga classes. I occasionally go to a zumba class, even though I am not entirelyRead More

My regular readers will not be surprised to learn that my old cell phone fell victim to my 4 year old, Andrew. I decided to look at the destroyed cell phone, not as a loss, but as an opportunity to upgrade to a 21st Century phone. I asked on twitter and Facebook what phone IRead More
How to Make Italian Bread Crumbs
This evening I shared my recipe for Minestrone Casserole on $5 Dinners. When I was making it I decided I wanted some kind of topping and since so many people add croutons I decided to add bread crumbs. Of course I didn’t have any, but that usually doesn’t stop me. I did have some stale breadRead More
How to Tie-Bleach a T-Shirt
Andrew was invited to a ’60’s party. The mom who invited us encouraged the kids to wear tie-dyed t-shirts. Andrew did not have a tie-dyed t-shirt or anything else in his wardrobe that would pass for ’60’s attire, so I looked for dye when I went grocery store. I could not find any dye at my localRead More
