We had a lunch date with Jason today at one of my favorite places in Louisville. It's called Joella's Hot Chicken. So good! I've been a little MIA so far this month..the 4th of July has thrown me off since we went back to Illinois for that weekend but came back home on the 4th so I haven't gotten caught up on much since then.  I need a new show to watch. We still need to watch House of Cards..but I need a thirty minute show. Once Grayson goes to bed I give myself about 30 min and then I go to bed too. I know..fun, fun!  I read this book and it was SO GOOD! Food lovers and … I'm not finished reading yet...

Coconut Pie

delicious coconut pie

Coconut Pie-homemade pie crust, homemade custard and a layer of whipped topping garnished with toasted coconut. I don't know if it's a gettin' older thing but I kind of love coconut desserts. I'd say this started a couple of years ago. I was in a whole foods type of grocery and they had these self serve bins of candy and the price is based on weight. In these bins were squares of chocolate covered coconut. Oh, there were heavenly! So, since tasting those and making return trips to the store to continue buying them, I've kind of noticed that I don't curl up my nose so much at coconut … I'm not finished reading yet...

Happy Friday! I can't believe we are so close to the 4th of July! I feel like after the 4th time really flies by and it will be time to decorate for Christmas! The ice cream picture is a recipe I shared a few years ago. Here's the link. If I were artistic I'd have so much fun doodling with chalk like this! I'm not artistic though!! Here is a great list of summer salads. I'm sure … I'm not finished reading yet...

My sister in law snapped a few photos of us back at Easter. It's taken me this long to edit and share any of them....there's just not enough hours in the day.  Grayson and I spent a few days in Illinois this week. Jason worked a lot of hours because of an upcoming deadline so we are glad to be back home and all together. We had a great time! Currently sipping on some iced coffee I … I'm not finished reading yet...

s'mores cups

S'mores Cups-all your favorite s'mores ingredients but in bite size pieces and without the camp fire.  I'm sure I've made it known before, but I love s'mores. If there is s'mores dessert around I am going for that before anything else.  S'mores Cups was something I made for a few get togethers a really long time ago. Like, when Jason and I had only been married a year or two.We … I'm not finished reading yet...

butterfly on flower

The butterfly exhibit at the zoo is really cool! You can't take strollers through and since I had to carry Grayson he wanted to grab the woman's backpack in front of us and play with the zipper and then all the flowers and the butterflies he wanted to grab. Which is a big NO, NO! It was still fun to walk through though though.  The new season of House of Cards is available on Netflix. We … I'm not finished reading yet...

I can't believe I am sharing a 4th of July recipe, but it is less than a month away. I don't know how that's possible...July is also my baby's birthday month. I am about to have a one year old!! Excuse me while I go cry for a moment. Seriously, it's been a great year with Grayson and I'll just write a blog post on it because there's plenty to say. Back to the cupcakes, shall we?

Boneless Grilled Chicken Breast

easy boneless grilled chicken breast

Boneless grilled chicken breast can be juicy and delicious every time with the right preparation and cooking techniques.  Without the proper preparation boneless grilled chicken breast can be very dry, bland and boring to eat. We eat a lot of grilled chicken, and especially now that it's grilled season there's no better way to cook it. A lot of people don't like leftovers but in our … I'm not finished reading yet...

flowers in old tire

Happy Friday! My week is thrown off since we stayed in Illinois until 4:00 a.m. Tuesday morning...Jason had a work thing on Monday and we decided not to drive back Monday evening but we needed to leave early enough so he would be at work on Tuesday morning. Yeah, I think we are still recovering from that! That's my mother in law's tire with the flowers in it that she has on their fence. I think … I'm not finished reading yet...
