Glazed Carrots {Foodie Friday}

Funny story. When DH and I went on our first date we went to see The Polar Express at the movie theatre. It was a tradition for me to bring a 1 lb bag of carrots to the movies. This satisfied my need to crunch and was much better for me than eating butter covered popcorn. I have always loved carrots and had been taking them to the movies with me for years. However, this led DH to believe that I was some kind of health nut.

Roasted Salmon with Soy and Marmalade Glaze {Foodie Friday}

This recipe is very similar to the one for Manhattan Glazed Chicken except it’s for salmon (der!) I really like it with the chicken, but I think I love the salmon a whole lot more. It’s quick, it’s easy, it tastes delicious, and it’s from Cooking Light, so that means that it’s practically good for you!

Granola Cookie Wedges {Foodie Friday}

Addicting. That’s exactly how I would describe these “cookies.” And due to the fact that they have oatmeal in them, I deem them “almost healthy” which means that you can have another bite. You’re welcome.

Chicken Cordon Bleu Casserole {Foodie Friday}



I have been eyeing this recipe forEVA. The first time I saw it I knew I had to have it. I grew up eating frozen chicken cordon bleu from the Schwan man and the Ham and swiss combo has always been amazing for me. It takes a lot of

Strawberry Pecan Shortcakes {Foodie Friday}


Well it seems as though we skipped spring here in central Indiana and went straight to summer. It’s kind of a bummer because I really like the coolness of spring, not too cold, not too hot. Now it’s starting to just be hot.

What I'm Loving Lately- Home Blogs {May edition}


Happy Memorial Day to you! I'm enjoying the nice weather today by getting some things done around the house. Is anyone else out there still spring cleaning? I still haven't gotten the windows cleaned, maybe I can finally knock that out today!

Homemade Croutons {Foodie Friday}



Once upon a time there was a loaf of bread going bad on my counter. I cut it up and made croutons. The end.
Wow that was a great story. No, really, because these croutons are delicious. In fact I have eaten half of them straight from the container. No salad, no dressing, just croutons. And the nice thing is that you can add flavors, spices and cheese combinations that you like too. This is so easy to do, so don’t let your stale bread go to waste!

Baby M {My Photography}

Here are just a few pictures I took of Baby M. He was 5 days new at the time, but he wasn’t particularly interested in having his picture taken. I still managed to get a couple cute ones of him. He is such a little peanut, I can't wait to see him grow up.
