Oh So Tasty Crockpot BBQ Chicken

This probably isn't the best time to say that over Labor Day weekend, we obtained 10 chickens!  I honestly don't think I have eaten chicken since...instead I made my Spinach Lasagna Rollups vegetarian style and my husband first skeptical, actually LOVED it!

My Go To Dinner Recipe (Soy Sauce Chicken)

Do you ever have those days where you are just clueless on what to cook for dinner?  You don’t have a preference, you don’t really feel like cooking, but you don’t want to eat out.  You just really want something that you can throw together and forget about.  Those days happen to me all the…

Feeling at Home in my Kitchen (Chocolate Chip Cookies)

Once we finally moved into the Farmhouse, I was so excited to get back to cooking.  We were slammed for months which led to constantly eating out, with few days and nights of home cooked meals.  Not only did I have to relearn the kitchen, but I wasn't quite use to cooking with a gas stove…

Not Such a Shell Anymore

The tattered shell of a house finally started becoming more homely.  The fun and really exciting tasks were just beginning, but if you have never picked out anything like this before (ahem...me) then it can be a bit overwhelming.  I am one of those people who have a list of Pinterest fails.  When it comes to styling,…

The Shell of a Place (Part 3)

Glad to see you are still interested in the updates of the Farmhouse!  There is always so much that goes into construction, I am glad I haven't led you to boredom. Oh they joys of piecing back together a house.  It's an exciting time to see it start coming together again after tearing it apart.…

The Shell of a Place (Part 2)

As promised, I’ll continue filling you in on our biggest project yet. It’s still a work in progress, but whose house isn’t? When we finally closed on the house, we were so excited to get started on reviving this old farm house. The only problem was the place was a dump and before we could…
