My Search For a Fun, Inventive Recipe

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I LOOOOVE food...cooking it, eating it, talking about it & even reminiscing about a meal from 14 years ago!

Since I started this blog a couple of months ago, I've been absolutely swamped with recipes (& coupons & freebies & surveys & hundreds of gimmicks), so I try to sort things out before I lay 'em on y'all.

Tonight, I signed up for Recipe Nut because...well, I AM one & I think I found a recipe that's actually semi-original...& should impress the heck out of anyone with young kids.  :) 
Shoot, I expect my parents to try this one just because it sounds so fun!

Click here to learn how to make The Empty Tomb Buns.

To make this entertaining (& supposedly delicious) Easter treat, you're supposed to...
Wrap pieces of bread dough around marshmallows (I am NOT impressed so far), dip them in butter (hello!), roll them in cinnamon-sugar & bake.  

The end-result is 'Empty Tombs' that baffle your kids' minds about how the marshmallow 'disappeared'...& that also happen to taste delicious!

I love Easter, I love Jesus, I love springtime & I love food! **

When you click on the link above, go to the "Occassion" tab & select "Spring".  Should be fun.  I think our teenagers will even be intrigued enough to try it.

Party Ideas for The Big Game

I am a sucker for party food.  If your team is playing in 'The Big Game', I'm sure you're having or attending a party.  If your team isn't playing...let's just use this as an excuse for some killer party snacks!  Today, I'm sharing two knocked-outta-the-park victories & one epic fail! Over the years, I've been using Pinterest to find innovative ideas for snacks, drinks, party decor & other things you wouldn't believe if I told you. One of my biggest party food victories has actually been about party drinks!  I am obsessed with kitchen gadgets & my sodastream is no exception. Even after having (mostly) eliminating soda from my diet, I still put this bad boy to work! I use it to make sparkling water & just add some mint, lemon, lime, rosemary, cucumber...whatever sounds good.  It's a quick, cheap, healthy alternative to soda & that extra-chemically diet soda.  Sparkling lemonade is also transcendent.  I highly recommend

Doing a Pantry Challenge / Freezer Challenge -Pt. 2 How To Prepare

Congratulations! You've decided to take control of your grocery budget and your food waste! Now what? Step 1: Gird Your Loins I know that's something only Barney Fife on "The Andy Griffith Show" would say, but we need to do it. In other words, you need to prepare yourself mentally and emotionally for what this upcoming month will be like. Embrace the fact that this will be worth it! But, in the meantime, we will not have access to convenience, laziness, or constantly feeding every craving that comes our way. And it's OK. It will just take some getting used to and some planning. The pile of cash at the end of the month is gonna be sah-WEET! Step 2: Rally The Troops If you have a family, do this however and whenever you think is best. Find a time when your husband is in a good mood...OR when he's really frustrated with not having enough money. This could be the answer he's been looking for. When approaching this subject with my kids, I framed i

How Can I Serve You?

This is a completely unplanned, unexpected post. Why? Because this blog has been collecting cobwebs for a few years. I am amazed at how much traffic this blog has gotten even while being 100% unattended. The good news is: I'm considering dusting it off & jumping back in to helping people live large on a tiny budget. So! It's time for you to call the shots! Tell me whatcha want! What types of questions do you have about saving money? What do you want to learn how to do? Are you looking for free printables to help keep your progress on track? Holler at me! :) I'll see what I can do to help equip you to achieve your wildest dreams. For any of you who may be interested...the photo shares a glimpse of what I've been up to for the past 5 years. We moved from Las Vegas, NV to central Alabama to build a farm & learn to grow our own food. We love empowering & educating folks about the healing properties of healthy foods. And, YES, we did all this while
