I know I'm on an overnight oat spree right now. I get it. It's almost a ritual at this point. When I meal prep on Sundays, I make a batch of overnight oats for my husband. I did eat some of the apple pie overnight oats, but the last two batches I've made have been… Continue reading Strawberry Cheesecake Overnight Oats

Apple Pie Overnight Oats
I count my blessings everyday to be living in this new house we bought. Sure, there are a lot of things wrong with it. And if I discover one more animal trying to get into the house---I might lose my mind. We're currently spending hand over fist to remove some starlings that decided to take… Continue reading Apple Pie Overnight Oats
Peanut Butter Cheerio Bars
Rob and I have become Aldi nerds. We've figured out we can get far more bang for our buck by shopping at Aldi. I've cut back our monthly grocery/food bill from around $400 a month to $200 a month while we finish up buying our house. Aldi plays a huge part in that. There's certain… Continue reading Peanut Butter Cheerio Bars
Katharine Hepburn’s Brownies
Nostalgia is king right now. I think people hit a certain point in this self-isolation that makes them yearn for the way things were...even yearning for the way things were 10-20 years ago. I've been going through old pictures and notes from my friends. I've been rewatching Gilmore Girls for the 100th time. I'm even… Continue reading Katharine Hepburn’s Brownies
Marbled Carrot Cake Cheesecake Bars
I'm a little late to the spring party, and I think Oklahoma is, too. It's been 30-40 degrees the past few nights. I haven't managed to venture outside in 2-3 days since my allergies have been going haywire. I'm missing the little blossoms on the trees, the weeds that are in bloom, and the cheery… Continue reading Marbled Carrot Cake Cheesecake Bars
Banana Pineapple Bread
I swear, bananas do not last long in my house. Maybe it's because my kitchen is so warm and humid, or because we'll at a few bananas and then forget about the rest, but at least 1-2 bananas goes bad before we can get to them. Right now we are in 'waste not, want not'… Continue reading Banana Pineapple Bread
Blueberry Biscuit Bake
There's no better way to start the day than with a big breakfast. I'm a savory breakfast kind of gal. I always order protein and eggs when I'm at a restaurant. Sometimes, if I'm feeling frisky, I'll order a stack of pancakes...and then only eat half of one. I've never been big on eating a… Continue reading Blueberry Biscuit Bake
Crockpot Christmas Candy
There are certain recipes that you attribute to people in your life. My coworkers and I are known for specific things that we always bring to parties because they're so beloved. Emily's corn dip is the best I've ever had. I can eat a dozen of Halee's ham pinwheels and not feel guilty about it.… Continue reading Crockpot Christmas Candy
Cranberry Orange Scones
It's getting really close to Christmas, y'all. Every Monday during the month of December I take a minute to gather my thoughts. What Christmas presents do I have left to buy? When should I start shopping for Christmas dinner? What all needs to be cleaned before family comes down? That list is getting shorter and… Continue reading Cranberry Orange Scones
Christmas Cookie Truffles
It's December 2nd, and if your Christmas tree isn't up yet---what are you waiting for?! I'm currently sitting here listening to Christmas music play through my stereo and looking at the lights glisten on my tree. I'm fully in the Christmas spirit, and that couldn't be more visible than if you step into my kitchen.… Continue reading Christmas Cookie Truffles
