This Halloween Chex Mix is a fun and festive snack for the holiday. The sweet and salty combo with your favorite season candy corn is hard to resist! Halloween is just around the corner, and in some places it’s closer than others. See, here in our neighborhood, the Grinch stole Halloween and decided to move…
Corn and Roasted Jalapeno Hummus
I was quite the busy bee in the kitchen this weekend! Nick left me for Virginia, so it was just me, the animals, and my lovely kitchen. It was technically a trip for “work,” but I don’t think he did too much working. His job has some fun perks and one of them is getting…
Parmesan Herb Almonds
When we were in Oklahoma, I was lucky enough to meet two lovely ladies who share my love of cooking and blogging. I was so excited since I am always looking for new inspiration in the kitchen! Though they started out with their own blogs, they merged them with a third friend, to create Fly…
Banana Fig Breakfast Bars
I can never understand why the brown spotted bananas are considered bad and are always on sale. The brown spotted ones are the best ones! You can actually eat them when you buy them. If you buy the “good,” full-priced bananas, you’ve got to wait a week before they’re ripe enough to eat. I’ve been…
Barbecued Peanuts

These Sweet ‘n Spicy Roasted Almonds would be perfect as a last minute holiday gift! Unfortunately, I made mine a little too soon before Christmas, and they were…
Caramel Apple Slices
I love having reasons to make fun treats. Halloween parties have definitely been fulfilling that role recently! Candy apples have always been one of my favorite fall treats. Though they’re not necessarily a Halloween food, I thought they fit the bill for this time of year, so I decided to make some for one of…
Halloween Popcorn Mix
Happy Halloweekend! Is it just me or does the Halloween holiday get longer and longer every year? It seems to last for days now! Which is OK with me, since I love celebrating it! Anyone remember back to my first real blog post, when I made Valentine’s Day popcorn? We’ll, Nick and I went to…
