Coffee Toffee

Coffee Toffee by Caroline

You will be seeing more desserts, cookies, treats, and candies from me in the next two weeks and maybe a few slowcooker meals in thrown in the mix, too. We have to eat dinner, but most of the time is devoted to baking. It is one of the things that I look forward to the most about the holidays, the baking. I have already been baking…

Chocolate Covered Cinnamon & Peanut Butter Chex Bites

Chocolate Covered Cinnamon & Peanut Butter Chex Bites by Caroline

Okay, yes the name is long- the other option was Dessert Chex Bites, which is not near descriptive enough, in my opinion. Anyway, I digress, don't let the name scare you away. These are so, so, so easy to make and keep forever in the refrigerator.These are a holiday snack that isn't too sweet, because it still has the saltiness from…

Chicken and Dumplings

Chicken and Dumplings by Caroline

I should have made this meal a long time ago, it is one of Ethan's favorites. There is just something about getting in the kitchen and making a special meal for someone you love. I pushed up my sleeves and got excited about making a dough, rolling it out, cutting it into rectangles, and freezing it, while a whole chicken was boiling.A…

I love quick and easy dinners. This shrimp takes about 5 minutes to prepare and that is being generous, and it only takes 15 minutes to bake.This recipe is reminiscent of one of our favorites, Lemon-Butter Shrimp.

Gingerbread Pancakes

Gingerbread Pancakes by Caroline

I love making breakfast. There is something about starting off the day with something special. Ethan loves pancakes, so I love to make them for him. They are super easy to make and they are one of his favorites, it is a win-win situation. I will always take extra pancakes and layer them between wax paper and place them in a ziplock…

Hot Cocoa Cookies

Hot Cocoa Cookies by Caroline

When the cold weather rolls around, everyone wants hot chocolate. I had not had hot chocolate in YEARS, until recently, about last week, actually. It was freezing and my mom made hot chocolate, I was in shock, I have since realized that sipping chocolate isn't exactly the most healthy thing ever and do not drink it, usually. I had one…

Chicken Tortilla Soup

Chicken Tortilla Soup by Caroline

I love hearty soups for lunch with a side salad or a big bowl for dinner when it is chilly outside. I actually love soup all the time and make it often during the summer, too! This soup encompassed everything I love about mexican food, without the carbs and laden with cheese. It has enough spice to brighten up the chicken and the…

Pumpkin, Maple, & Pecan Cheesecake

Pumpkin, Maple, & Pecan Cheesecake by Caroline

This cheesecake is not overly pumpkiny because it has the yummy maple to counteract it; it tastes just like Fall. Cheesecake is my all time favorite dessert, well one of them, and I have always been so intimidated to make it.This cheesecake is going to be my go-to Thanksgiving dessert from now on. Number one it is perfect, you are…

I hosted my very first Thanksgiving dinner this year, before I head home to my parent's house for our big Thanksgiving day celebration. It was so much fun. I loved all of the planning that went into it and of course the outcome of all of my dishes. I made everything from scratch and had a blast doing it.This salad was one of my…
