There isn’t much that beats the comfort of my grandmother’s cornbread dressing for Thanksgiving and Christmas. I have a Dairy free and Egg Free Cornbread dressing recipe that we have used for the past couple of years and it is sooo delicious! You can see it here. If you want to spice things up a…
We are back to the normal daily grind today after weeks off for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s. We are starting homeschooling back today, and so I thought I would make the kiddos a special treat. They loved waking up to this yummy breakfast! Plus a huge bonus of getting up early to make these…
I can honestly say I have tried for years to make Cornbread Dressing like my grandmother makes it. She always cooks the dressing for our Thanksgiving meal and it is SO GOOD! However, it has eggs in it and the cornbread is made with eggs and buttermilk so my son with the dairy and egg…
There are so many casserole recipes and other dishes that I would love to make for my kiddos, but unfortunately they call for canned cream of chicken soup. Not only are the canned condensed cream of soups high in sodium but they also contain dairy. In fact I have yet to find a canned one…
One of my very favorite comfort foods is Chicken & Dumplings! My great grandmother used to make them, and I remember it being one of her specialties. It was always such a treat to enjoy a bowl of them. I decided to try to make some for my kiddos so that they could enjoy…

A couple of our stores have had Boston Butt on sale at a great price recently. When they go on sale I always grab a couple for the freezer to use in one of our favorite recipes. For years I was afraid to try slaw on my barbecue. I thought it just didn’t really sound…
We all have those mornings when we are in a rush. There are times when we just don’t have the time to fix a big breakfast. Those are the days when many folks turn to freezer waffles – Unless you are dealing with food allergies. All mainstream store brand and name brand freezer waffles contain…
One of the things I often miss about cooking dairy free & egg free is fresh homemade biscuits! I have tried several recipes over the years and haven’t been able to find a good recipe that we love yet. I’ve often thought that we’ll always be resigned to eating canned biscuits from Aldi’s forever. I…
We got a new dining set this year for Thanksgiving. The kids and I were so excited when Bryan brought it home last week. We have always had hand me down, used and mismatched tables and chairs so being able to have a new one this year is such a blessing. My favorite thing about…
I was hanging out on Twitter a while back and came across this article about how Pot Lucks make this blogger panic. The title of the article caught my attention because, well, they make me panic too. Although it’s for a different reason than the other blogger. Pot luck dinners are always so stressful for…
Once upon a time, oh maybe about 9 years or more ago, I would have looked at the above scene with delight. The first thing I’d go for is a Reese’s Cup. Oh how I miss those! I remember the thrill of going out trick-or-treating with my siblings and coming back home with the loot. …
WARNING: What I am about to discuss is NOT something you should try at home if you are dealing with Food Allergies. It is something you might want to discuss with your doctor. I came across this article on New Treatment for Kids with Egg Allergy this morning while browsing on Facebook. I find…
I wanted to bring this up here because I know that many of you can identify with my sadness. Many of you probably have heard that today is “Dress Like a Cow Day” at Chick Fil-A”. It seems to be all over Facebook and twitter with folks sharing their cute cow costumes. If you…
These shirts are so adorable.
