This is a sponsored conversation written by me on behalf of The Little Potato Company. The opinions and text are all mine. Waste Not, Want Not One of the more frequent questions I receive is how to deal with leftovers. It’s usually some sort of leftover vegetable or meat. And recently, I have received a…
Kids these days I think as we get older, we tend to have a “doom and gloom” attitude about the generations younger than us. Right? They’ll never know the struggles we had! Rotary phones, no internet, cassette tapes! Ha! I often get folks from my generation and the baby boomer generation who will comment that…
The Good Ole Internet First of all, I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who commented or sent me an email after last Sunday’s Meal Plan post. If you spend any amount of time on the internet at all, you’ll know that there is a lot of mean-ness and rudeness. It comes with…
Candy Corn Colors – Not Flavor Wait! Before you click away – this does not taste like candy corn. It just looks like it! I know people either love or hate candy corn and feel very strongly about it. Ha! But this is really just a fun vanilla pudding recipe that you can whip up…

Bean and Ham The recipe I am sharing today is, hands-down, one of my absolute favorites. There is just something so comforting about bean and ham soup. This particular soup recipe is inspired by the famous soup served for the United States Senate every single working day. No matter what else is on the menu,…
Nope, I don’t diet Yes, I’m overweight. Yes, I could stand to lose a few pounds. But I don’t diet. Not anymore anyway. I have yo-yo dieted nearly my entire life. I’ve done low carb, Jenny Craig, Weight Watchers, calorie restricting, obsessive exercising, Slim Fast. I even tried a no-wheat, gluten-free and an anti-inflammatory diet…
I don’t cater and I don’t decorate cakes I have zero cake decorating and craft skills. I’ve mentioned it often on the blog here. It’s not for lack of trying. But it is for lack of patience. 😉 I have zero patience for cake decorating. I don’t even own a piping bag. I will have…
Desserts, desserts, and more desserts Loving these featured recipes this week! So much yumminess! Thank you to all the bloggers that linked up with these great recipes last week (and linked back to us!)

Impressive But Easy This is one of those fun and simple fall recipes. I have mentioned this before, but if you are new here, I am not a great baker. It is definitely not my strong suit. I am horrible at cake decorating. And if any dessert has too many steps, I will mess up…
What exactly is in Pumpkin Pie Spice? Often times recipes will call for mixed spices – like Pumpkin Pie Spice or Apple Pie Spice. Or sometimes it’s a seasoning mix like Taco Seasoning or Ranch Seasoning. These are just a blend of several different spices and seasonings to create the perfect flavor. A lot of…
You put what on your honey bun? If you were following me on Facebook or Instagram, then you know I was in Mexico Beach, Florida for a few days last week. It was so much fun and I had a blast doing some Facebook live videos with Christy and Stacey. You can check one of…
This is a sponsored conversation for Eggland’s Best eggs. All opinions and text are my own. Breakfast on-the-go We finally started back to school here in our part of Virginia. We are after Labor Day starters here. Not gonna lie – it’s been a challenge to get back into the swing of things. We’re all…
