Hello, my name is Christy. I am a mother of three girls, lover of photography, dobermans, cooking, and creating new recipes. Come take a peek into my crazy life.
So today is my last day of my 21 Day Sugar Detox (21DSD). WOO HOO!!!! I feel like I need a t shirt or something! It’s a 21 day plan from the book written by Diane Sanfilippo and is meant to help you cut out sugar as well as helping you to beat your sugar … More I survived the 21 Day Sugar Detox, well kinda
I love making a big breakfast for my family. I can’t remember if I’ve talked about this before, but my dad has a thing for big breakfasts. He doesn’t cook in the kitchen really at all, except for breakfast. Basic breakfast items – like eggs, bacon, sausage. That’s his area. He loves making omelets to … More Easy Breakfast Burritos
I’m going to post a 21 Day Sugar Detox (21DSD) summary once I’m done with the program, but I just couldn’t wait another week to share this little lifesaver. So the detox is a little rough. I’m not going to lie, it’s really hard. The first week I wanted to quit every day. But I … More Coconut Milk Is My Lifeline!
Yesterday was my husband’s birthday. He’s not a huge dessert lover and can pass up ice cream most of the time, as opposed me. I swear it beckons me every time I open the freezer. And he could care less about chocolate. He does have a few weaknesses in the sweet category so I usually … More Butterscotch Peanut Butter Bars for the Birthday Boy
Summer is officially here! Well, it will be here for my family tomorrow at 2:20 PM thanks to those darn snow days. I know one of our favorite summer treats is fresh sweet corn.

You’ve seen the recipes I post. I love carbs. I love homemade pizza dough – loaded with white flour. Yes, I know it doesn’t have any nutritional value – but oh does it make a good crust! I am on day three of a 21 Day Sugar Detox. I’m following the book written by Diane … More Call me crazy, but this Cauliflower Pizza Crust isn’t so bad!
“Hey You Guys!” I can’t eat Rocky Road ice cream without thinking about The Goonies. If you’ve never seen this classic 80’s movie, then I’m sorry my friend but you missed out! You better add it to your must see movie list. Am I the only one who keeps one of those rolling in my head … More Truffle Shuffle Ice Cream
I decided to make my own sangria last weekend to go along with our Parking Lot Chicken. I’m not a big wine drinker at all. When I’m in the wine isle, I wish they had a category that was labeled “Newbie Wine.” It’s not that I don’t really like it, I just like it super … More Fruity Sangria
Oh yes, you read that right! Baked French Toast with Caramel Banana Sauce! This recipe just kind of came together one evening when I didn’t really feel like making some elaborate dinner. Breakfast for dinner is always an easy dinner and my kids love it. Pancakes or Pancakes with Blueberry Sauce are usually my go to … More Baked French Toast with Caramel Banana Sauce
Shortly after moving here to northern Indiana, we periodically noticed little pop up stands selling chicken. These stands are usually in parking lots and are teamed up with an organization to raise money for some sort of organization. My husband had employees that would see the stand on their way to work, and come in … More Parking Lot Chicken
