20 Tried & True Hiccup Cures

ByMariel

I never get hiccups. Like, really I think it had been years… until last week. I got them several times in one day. It stunk!

Anyway, while on Facebook (do you follow??), I was asking the ladies to help me out… what are the best tried and true hiccup cures? I got some fantastic answers. Some made perfect sense, others made me laugh, but they are all sworn by. So, the next time you have the hiccups, go through this list and I’m pretty dang sure you’ll be hiccup-free in no time.

Leprechaun Hat Place Card Holder (she: Darleen)

ByDarleen

I am one of those people who loves to celebrate each holiday to its full capacity! While I don’t go too crazy decorating for St. Patrick’s Day, I do like to wear green and make the traditional corned beef and cabbage dinner on the Irish holiday. I thought it would be fun this year to set the dinner table for our St. Patrick’s Day feast with these simple darling leprechaun hat place card holders. Add some green potted plants for centerpieces and place the leprechaun hats on the plate and you will be good to go.

Tips for Being a Happy Mom (she: Heather)

ByHeather

Since the beginning of time, all human beings have sought the same thing: To BE HAPPY! The problem is that in the heat of motherhood, and parenthood and life, happiness can be hard to find. And when “momma aint happy, aint nobody happy.” The cooking and cleaning and whining and chauffeuring, and inability to have 30 seconds of privacy to use the bathroom alone, can sometimes make us feel like it is impossible to be a happy mom.

But that is not the case. Consistent research shows that happy moms have a few things in common. Here are 6 things that Happy moms do. These tips for being a happy mom could work for all of us!

Irish Soda Buttermilk Scones (she: Gina)

ByGina Kleinworth

Happy March Everyone!!!

It’s Gina from Kleinworth & Co again! I’m back today with St. Patrick’s Day on my mind & ready to share one of my favorite Irish recipes. Do you like St. Patrick’s Day? How do you celebrate? My hubs always loves to have corned beef & cabbage. That’s his specialty. But I like to make a little something too – so I whip up these Irish Soda Buttermilk Scones to go on the side. The nice part about them is that they work well as a side to dinner & the leftovers make a great breakfast when paired with jam. These are so incredibly simple to make. No waiting for them to rise & bake time is only 20 minutes. You can literally whip these together while doing your other dinner prep. For breakfast I just heated the leftovers & spread a little Blueberry Freezer Jam on each bite. The kids loved it.

March 2014 Visiting Teaching Message Printable

ByMariel

Happy March! Here’s the Visiting Teaching printable for the month. 🙂

For those of you wondering what the heck Visiting Teaching is: In my church, all the women and men are assigned specific people in the church to visit monthly. For women, it’s called Visiting Teaching. We usually have a partner and are assigned maybe 2 to 4 women that we try to visit every month. The point of the visit is to get to know each other, support each other, care for each other, and share a spiritual thought.

Crab Stuffed Lobster (she: Maria)

ByMaria

Hi Everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend, and that this new month has started off well for you! I am so happy that March is here, since it means that the official beginning of spring is just a couple of days away now! And after this long, cold winter, that’s pretty good news! I’m excited to be back here and share another recipe with you today! If you don’t know me yet, I’m Maria from Shopgirl, and if you missed last month’s recipe (my Heart Shaped Puff Pastry Pockets) you can find it HERE! Today I’m sharing this Crab Stuffed Lobster with you, that makes for a perfect special dinner! My husband and I both love seafood, and love the fact that there is so much delicious seafood in Maryland, where we moved a little over a year ago. This recipe is basically a crab cake stuffed/topped lobster tail and if you’re a seafood lover, you will love this!

BBQ Ranch Chicken Wrap … a la Cheesecake Factory (she: Cathy)

Bycathy

Hello again to all my friends at Or so She Says! It’s Cathy from Lemon Tree Dwelling and I’m so happy to be back today sharing this delicious BBQ ranch chicken wrap with you. It’s inspired by one of my all-time favorite salads from The Cheesecake Factory and is loaded with all kinds of goodness….like grilled corn and avocado and black beans and crispy onion rings….all smothered in a combination of ranch dressing and BBQ sauce. In other words, it’s pretty much the best wrap ever!!
I was inspired to make it after a recent trip to The Cheesecake Factory to celebrate my neighbor’s birthday. I have GREAT neighbors – we are lucky that way – but since the winter weather has been so brutal, none of us has set foot outside! So it had been forever since we’d seen one another! That’s typically how it goes in wintertime, at least around here…..we can go months without ever laying eyes on the people who live right next door!

Southwestern Breakfast Bake ~ Easy & Hearty Breakfast

ByMariel

If I had to pick a favorite meal of the day, and dessert wasn’t an option, I would have to say breakfast. Most of my favorite recipes all fit in the breakfast category: Biscuits and Sausage Gravy, Buttermilk Pancakes, Cinnamon Rolls, Breakfast Fajitas, Butterscotch Bread Pudding… I could go on and on. I’m excited to add another new favorite breakfast recipe to my binder, Southwestern Breakfast Bake. Mmmmm! It was gooooood. I love the combo of everything in this dish… English muffins, sausage, green chilies, eggs, cheese… It’s super easy to make and can be refrigerated uncooked overnight, or baked immediately.
