I have never actually made caramel apples, but have had a number of them this year – not made by me. Last Sunday I think I tasted the BEST caramel apple there is! Our friend brought them over for a Family Home Evening treat and I think I ate most of them myself (truly!). I [...]

I found this recipe on-line and decided to give it a try today (since we didn’t have much prep. time for dinner). The kids LOVED them and they were great to eat with our lasagna. I loved being able to make something homemade with yeast in less than half an hour – no rising time! [...]

Last weekend we had some friends over for a BBQ. They treated us to homemade ice cream for dessert. The kids were so excited to get to make their own ice cream. There is just something about throwing bags of cream around outside that works up an appetite for ice cream! Measuring out the heavy [...]

I love this day and age with its technology that allows us to watch General Conference over the internet. I remember growing up going to the church to watch Conference in the dark chapel each session. It was good but a different experience. Now we can sit at home with our family, not worrying if [...]

This is our new favorite soup – of any kind! Way back in October for our church’s fall festival, we had a chili cook-off. I made our easy, throw-in-the-crockpot chili but found a couple chilies we had to get the recipes for. This is one of those recipes. Be sure to look at the recipe [...]
