Hi! I’m ilene from Come on, ilene! I like to say that I’m a web designer by day and a dreamer by night. I started my blog after my wedding as an outlet for all my creative energies and to document all the random projects I’m working on. I’m honored to be guest posting today!…
Ten minutes AND delicious?? No lie. Unless, you forget to buy black beans, at the store, like I did. Then it takes more like and hour and a half. So, I first had this black bean soup while on a big multi-family vacation at Fish Lake. All the ladies take turns being in charge of…
Okay, so this is no sort of genius recipe, just more of an idea. An idea with a few of the best things in the world. Hello, bacon. These make an easy and delicious lunch…if you do things the easy way. Butter one side of your tortillas. Place one, butter side down, in a fry…
Despite that insane mess I’m left with, every time I leave Costco, I have to grab a churro to share with the kids, in the car. Speaking of Costco, don’t laugh, but their pizza is seriously my favorite…in Utah. Is that sad? Utah is seriously lacking in awesome pizza. (Suggested Utah pizza, anyone?? I’ve tried…
My daughter Kyla (almost 12) and I have a Mother/daughter recipe blog: www.doublethedeliciousness.blogspot.com. Our slogan is “Cooking with 2 is fun to do”! It has been a great way to teach my daughter some needed cooking/baking skills that she will most definitely need in the future! It’s also been a really great way to spend…
We go through hot chocolate like mad, at our house. Swiss Miss packets, tubs of Stephen’s Hot Cocoa, gone. It’s on my shopping list every single week, in the winter time. And, Utah is stinkin’ cold right now, without snow. Boo. But, we’re being promised a white Christmas. Fingers crossed. So, today was one of…

So, I told y’all on Facebook how I went to this Rhodes Rolls demonstration for food bloggers, at their headquarters in Salt Lake. It was pretty fun to get some new ideas of things to make with their frozen dough rolls. Having pre-made dough on hand is so convenient, and it’s good! I normally only…
It’s a rare occasion, in my house, where I can make a pumpkin dessert, without getting ample groans. The biggest grumbles come from Dan, who just can’t hack anything pumpkin…or fruity, or mint, or marshmallow, or fudge, or fancy looking. Pretty much standard chocolate desserts are all that he wants. He’s crazy. But, over the…
These Oreo cupcakes are so good! I could eat them all day! These are a great treat for all occasions, and everyone will be wanting more.
I haven’t quite caught the IKEA bug, yet. I know, I’m crazy…from what I hear. However, I’ve only been there one time, for about 15 minutes, and I was with the husband. Shopping with the man is one of my least favorite things to do. I don’t know why. Dan is totally sweet, but I…
It doesn’t matter how much milk or bread I buy, I swear, in 5 days…we’re out. And, I can’t bring myself to go grocery shopping more than once a week…so, at least 2 days a week…we’re scavengers. Trying to figure out what we can eat that doesn’t include milk or bread. That’s hard with little…
