Butter Mint Oreo Ice Cream Bars? When I first heard of this concoction, I thought it sounded so crazy. How could it possibly be good? Butter mints don’t go with ice cream and Oreos. But, my sister crossed her heart, and hoped to die. So, I believed her, and I’m so glad I did. I’ve…

I knew I needed them in my belly. The recipe has instructions for both the meatballs and the sauce. But, since I was…
It’s been a crazy weekend. I think I’ve cried probably 20 times in the past 2 days. Blah. It all started yesterday morning, when I watched The Biggest Loser, that I recorded. Darn it, that show makes me cry…happy tears, sad tears, nerdy tears. Ten minutes later I get a phone call that my grandpa,…

On Pinterest, the other day, I stumbled on a grilled sandwich that I had to try: avocado, bacon, and pepperjack cheese on sourdough bread. Hello. Four of the best ingredients in, oh…the whole world.
