Italian Crockpot Chicken

August 25, 2012 By Hazel Leave a Comment

This dish is SO simple! I found it a long time ago in one of those paperback recipe books you can get when you are checking out at a grocery store (I give in if they have pretty pictures on the front... I can't help it!), but forgot about it for a while. Lucky for me (and my husband... and you!), while I was pinning my heart away, I stumbled upon this post over at Stick a Fork In It. My husband just loves it. His favorite way to eat it is over pasta, but sometimes I will serve it over … [Read more...]

And this is how I came up with the best breakfast … [Read more...]

Labor Day Goodies!

September 6, 2011 By Hazel Leave a Comment

What did you make this Labor Day?! We had a family get-together Sunday afternoon and we all chowed down. I ended up making way more than I probably needed to, but I enjoyed it!

I figured I'd share the recipes I used for making my dishes and let you know which were the biggest hit. So I think my lemon bundt cake was actually … [Read more...]

So this weekend I had a couple awesome things that I wanted to share! These pictures were all taken with my phone so they aren't th best! First, we went out to this awesome Thai restaurant. Of course, I didn't take a picture, but trust me, the food was AMAZING! Afterwards, we decided to try this new yogurt place. I am so happy we did. They had dairy free goodies and tonsssss of fresh fruit. My husband got excited because they had these little cheesecake squares so he loaded up on those. Check … [Read more...]
