Some people love it, some people are not a fan, but in my house we love guacamole. My girls gobble it up and I day-dream of lounging on the beach sipping a frozen margarita and plowing through an endless bowl of chips and fresh guacamole. It’s so simple to make and most of those store-bought … More Daydreaming of guacamole
Sometimes a big pot of chili simmering on the stove just makes it instantly feel like fall. I love a nice relaxing Sunday evening with a chill in the air, football on the TV, chili on the stove, and being snuggled up on the couch. Chili is an easy go to meal anytime in the … More It’s Chili Time
Usually if we don’t have any big morning plans on Saturday, I try to make a homemade breakfast of some sort.

My husband is a big fan of hot wings. He’s kind of picky about how the wing is prepared. He likes a little breading, but not overly done. And that breading cannot be soggy. He likes a nice fried wing and a sauce that has a kick, but not so hot you can hardly eat … More Hot Wings at home

Another meal we enjoy in our house is nachos. When I make tacos, I reserve some of the cooked taco meat for what we call “Super Nachos” in our house as a meal on another night.
