oatmeal cookie recipes

Sorry for the lack of posts as of late, I've been a bit under the weather. I did drag my sorry butt into the kitchen yesterday though to bake a few batch of cookies. Mr.S. is going out of town for a few days this week so I thought I'd send him off...

Around the ol’ Interwebs, you will be seeing a lot of pie recipes today. I like pie. A lot. I love the idea of the food community coming together to celebrate the ultimate baked good (in my humble opinion, of course). But I just didn’t have it together to make one and get it...

When we were kids my mom never let us have Little Debbies. At the time, I thought that she was just punishing us, but as it turns out, she was right to not buy them for us. They are not very good for you, chemicals and such, but oh do they taste delicious. I...

I am sitting here on my couch, enjoying the the peace and quiet.  My children are at school, the kitchen is clean, and the laundry is well, it is still there.  I am watching Regis and Kelly and tearing up at the tribute to all of Regis’s guests that have passed on.  How did...

Do you still have zucchini in your refrigerator? I do. I still have three good-sized ones. Luckily there won't be any more (the plants came out of the garden last weekend). I don't think I want to see another zucchini for awhile. It's gotten to the...

Yesterday was my dad's 65th birthday. {Happy Birthday Daddy!!!} Since we live two hours away from my parents, we can't always get together on our actual birthdays. This last week before school starts is kicking my bottom (does this happen to anyon...

So, today is my daughter's last day of Kindergarten. I know, you're probably tired of hearing about it. I wrote about it last week, when I posted my Word Card Cookies. I wrote about it on my other blog. But I'm not done yet. I'm sad. I'm sad my baby ...

When I was a kid, I hated butterscotch. Detested it. My mom would make rice crispy treats and add a package of butterscotch chips and I wouldn't touch them with a 10-foot pole. But, as I've gotten older, my picky palate has improved. I mean, I love A...
