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
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

Chicken Noodle Casserole
This chicken noodle casserole recipe combines the flavors of homemade chicken noodle soup in a delicious casserole. While I was sorting laundry today, my four-year-old combined olive oil, peanut butter, and a Costco-sized container of cinnamon and put the mixture in coffee filters. When I reminded him that he was not supposed to cook withoutRead More
“Real” Fast Food for Busy Nights
I am enjoying the cooler weather and the smell of new books, but I am not fond of the crush of activities that begin in September. Many nights I am pulling in the drive way ten minutes after I was planning on serving dinner. So I do a little preplanning and combine it with recipes that IRead More
Mediterranean Garden Frittata
I should let you know right off that my daughter named this dish. I wanted to call it Italian Vegetable Frittata, but she didn’t think that sounded romantic or exotic enough for her favorite frittata. She is a kindred spirit to Anne of Green Gables and often complains about the plebeian names I give my dishes.Read More
Southwest Steak Frittata
Frittatas are a great way to use up leftovers. They are also a wonderful way to sneak excess garden veggies into your kids at breakfast. And for some reason people are always impressed with frittatas. When I serve them, my friends and family always act like I went to a lot of trouble and IRead More
Flourless Chocolate Cookies
This flourless chocolate cookies recipe are chewy and taste like brownies! You can even add your favorite brownie add-ins if you wish. Flourless chocolate cookies are delicious and easy to make. The ingredient list is similar to a meringue cookie recipe except this uses whole eggs instead of just egg whites. The directions are differentRead More
Menu Plan – Week of September 5th
I haven’t shared a menu plan in months. Our schedule has been crazy busy this summer and I have just been winging dinner based on who is home and how much time I have to prepare dinner. Last week my two oldest children started back to college which means order is being imposed on myRead More

Scalloped Squash
I have a couple of friends coming over this week and since I have so much squash I left them a message on Facebook telling them that they were required to take as much squash as they could carry when they leave. My daughter saw my Facebook status and said it was the best newsRead More

Southwest Pasta Salad
I had some leftover grilled chicken from making my Grilled Chicken and Vegetable Fajitas. Even though I only grilled two chicken breasts they had rib meat attached, so one was more than enough to make fajitas for my family of five. I was contemplating what to do with the leftover fajita seasoned chicken when IRead More

Easy Stir-Fry with Squash
This is another one of those impromptu, throw together dinners that I wouldn’t normally share. However, I have felt convicted lately that I have not been sharing enough of our normal (for us) dinners. I am sharing this not because I think you should replicate this recipe, but so you can apply the concept toRead More
Friday Blog Hop
As many of you already know, Alex of A Moderate Life is taking a blogging break. Not only did we lose her as a co-host on The Hearth and Soul Hop, but April of The 21st Housewife lost her as a co-host of her Feed Me Tweet Me Hop. April decided to make some changes to her blog hop. IRead More
Pasta Salad with Squash
I am still trying to use up the squash from my garden. It may be a losing battle, but I am not willing to give up yet. In this situation, I could best be described as stubbornly optimistic because I am not just harvesting squash by the basket full, I am harvesting it by theRead More
Southwest Squash Lasagna
This throw together meal was delicious, but I must confess it wasn’t premeditated. I have admitted before that I often have a hard time coming in from the garden in the evenings to make dinner. Earlier in the season when I had lots of greens, I could throw together a salad. Unfortunately, with the exception ofRead More
