We were excited for Super Bowl! My team was playing(Patriots). Ms. Hyperdiva loves Katy Perry, Super Samurai loves football in general, and Wise One just loved the food. I planned this out for almost two weeks, and would have made it even if my team wasn’t playing. Why? The underlining reason: tons of leftovers. We…

My HomeMade Dog Treats: Peanut Butter Muffins
I finally, finally got these treats done. This is one recipe I’m trying. I’ll try the other tonight or tomorrow. I had Peanut Butter treats for her, and soaked them in water for almost a week. I wanted them really soggy for the idea I had, and it worked! I put those treats in the…
Canning is so country……right?
Well, is it? Not exactly. You see, if we haven’t discussed this before, my grandmother was a city gal, born to country parents. She’s from Detroit Michigan, and her parent came from Kentucky, and Georgia. They raised 5 kids in the city during the depression. Interesting stories were told to me, like eating pigeons if…
Sweet Potato Chili with Cornbread Cake
I told you peeps I was giving the gifts of recipes. This one is healthy, quick, and so tasty, you may not have leftovers. Now, the backstory to my madness is hilarious if you think about it. In previous posts, I watch travel, food and cooking networks. I get ideas from these channels, or I’ll…
Greek Christmas Meal(con’t) – Greek Sweets
Creating the desserts were easier than the dinner. One of the first things I learned from researching all of this, is unlike us(Americans), Greeks call everything sweets.

Day 15: Snickers Halvah
It’s Christmas Eve! Are you guys all ready? Everything wrapped? Shopping done? If not, it’s ok, roll with it. It’s supposed to me a happy time, not to be stressful. Like me, I still have baking to do, prepping dinner and putting out gifts. Does it bother me? Nope. I also have Holly Days to…
Day 10: Chocolate Frost Bite
With everything that was going on, I decided, originally, to take some time off from blogging, but then Wise One was feeling sick, and normally that means she wants to just be alone. It was bound to happen, since Ms. HyperDiva spread her illness around the house. There is a reason she’s called that, and…
Day 8: Egg Nog Bread Pudding
Now, I’m really excited about this post. I wanted to make this and post yesterday but, a) super samurai drank ALL the egg nog, and b) I was feeling like crap. In any event, it was getting posted, even if it was a day late. When I was writing this recipe, I knew everyone would…
