I’ve done a little Thrift Store Shopping over the last couple of weeks and I thought it would be fun to share some of the things I found. Some of them are really pretty and different. Some of them are terrifying. Stick with me til the end. If you dare. Thrift Store Finds First, a …
When the weather starts to get warm I pull out my Crock Pot. Generally slow cooker food feels more wintry/fall-ish, but when it’s hot outside and you don’t feel like heating up the kitchen, the Crock Pot is a great option. This week I made a Gluten Free Crock Pot Macaroni and Cheese and it …
I found an old Betty Crocker Cookbook. It’s the 40th Anniversary edition and I think it came out sometime in the 80’s because it’s got a lot of optional microwave cooking methods which I think is hilarious. I’ve made a couple of recipes from it before, these Chicken Wings and these Honey Almond Apple Puffs, …

I’ve been trying to branch out from my normal chicken or steak dinners. Mostly because I’ve had more than a few “Steak again??” comments from my lovely children.
