I can’t tell you how many little tubs of Play-doh I have bought at the store! AND, they usually only last for one sessions of playing. It ends up in little pieces all over the floor, dried up, eaten, and/or squished all together with other colors (and then none of the kids like them anymore.)…
One of my most favorite things is the Mission Carb Balance tortillas (don’t get the wheat, they’re yuck)! I talk about them to everyone I see! Probably annoying, but I find them so exciting! Why?? Well, for one…I try to live a mostly low-carb lifestyle (7 net carbs per tortilla, baby)! Except on Sundays, my…
Hi, I’m Margot, aka The Damsel in DisDress. I have 7 kids and yessssss!!! 2 grandkids. Best gig ever.I write a blog teaching people how to do those old homey skills our grandmas used to know like the back of their age-spotted hand. Why would you want to learn this? Perhaps to become more reliant…
I love a hot sandwich. I especially love one that I can dip in au jus. This is one of my favorites…one of the kinds where I cut an appropriate size piece for myself. Then, when everyone is out of the room, I scarf 5 more servings. You know what I’m talking about. You need:…
I have looked for a long time to find an easy “sweet and sour” chicken recipe, all of the ones I come across take all stinkin’ day to make. The dredging, dunking, frying…blah. Here is one that I made this week that is easy and yummy! (Healthy too- since there is no batter and frying!!)…
Well, what do you know? It’s Saturday and this recipe is called Saturday Chicken …how special is that? So, my mom used to make this when I was little, it is one of the favorites in our house! It’s incredibly simple. It’s so simple it seems like it couldn’t possibly be good, but is is…
I love me some comfort food! And chicken pot pie is no exception! This recipe is so easy, so versatile, and so good! I actually make 3 pies with this recipe and freeze two of them for another day. One pie comfortably feeds 4 adults and a couple picky children. You will need: 4 boneless…
This Cajun Chicken Pasta is sooo good, even my kids will eat it (and that’s saying a lot!)(Adapted from a recipe I found on Recipe Zaar’s site a while back…got rave reviews!) To make this you will need some B.S. chicken breasts (sliced into thin strips), linguine noodles, Cajun seasoning, green onion, heavy whipping cream,…
This one is for you, She One.. Mariel keeps asking me to do a post on this Jell-O. It is soooo good and easy! Here are the ingredients: This is my Momma’s recipe. Red Raspberry Jello
There are some carb-splurges that are totally worth it. One of them being soft homemade pretzels (others: chocolate molten cake, maple donuts, and fettuccini alfredo) How ’bout turning these fellas into clovers to jazz up St. Patrick’s Day! Remember to start making these at least a couple hours before you need them because they have…
In honor of St. Patrick’s day, (thanks to Mariel, we now know who he is) I made a green key lime pie. I told you I don’t bake and desserts aren’t my forte unless you can make them in under 20 min. This one took me 7 min from start to finish! Im serious! Here…
In honor or Jessica’s post about eating healthy foods (cabbage being one of them), and St. Patrick’s Day (I know it’s a stretch but cabbage IS green…) I thought I would share my recipe for Chinese Chicken Salad. And, I must say…I think this recipe is better than the similar ones out there. I like…
