Sticky Buns

The cinnamon roll vs sticky bun debate rages on… If you missed the Cinnamon Roll post and prefer your rolls of cinnamon to be simply glazed instead of sticky and gooey, then head on back to that post here.  I assure you that you will not be disappointed.  If you did catch it then you must have been anxiously awaiting these. Without further ado, I leave in you in goods with my husband… As a kid wandering the mall with my dad and brother we would often follow our noses to the T.J. Cinnamons that was somewhere off to the side …

Cinnamon Rolls

Guys, I couldn’t be more excited to share today’s recipe with you… seriously excited, like you just told a kid they’re going to Disney World kind of excited.  I’ll refrain from the screams and eeks, but I’m telling you right now that this is absolutely my favorite recipe this year so far. My husband is the brains behind this creation so I’ll happily turn it over to him.  Excuse me while I grab my fat pants. If preparing to make this recipe has taught me anything, it’s that cinnamon roll recipes are as widely varied as they are a pain in the butt …

Turbo Pizza

By the time you’re done reading this post you could have been well on your way to homemade pizza.  Less than 30 minutes start to finish, including pizza dough from scratch!  I kid you not… I’m very serious when it comes to pizza.  😉 I asked my husband “How long does it take to make pizza?”  He replied “A few hours, why?”  I answered “Never mind.” but had that sad puppy dog look in my eyes.  Clearly I was asking because I was in the mood for pizza, but was not in the mood to wait.  Conveniently my husband had stumbled into a possible solution …

Malibu and Pineapple

By show of virtual hands, who else thinks that this week is going by too slowly? Perhaps this week feels like it’s dragging because last week was a short work week with the holiday.  Or maybe it’s because I am dreading jury duty tomorrow and I really, really, really don’t want to be called in.  Does anyone actually like being called for jury duty? While I patiently wait for the upcoming weekend (patient…lol…I’m funny), I’ll reminisce about this lovely cocktail that I enjoyed last weekend.  Yes, I just shared a cocktail recipe with you last week, but this one is completely different.  …

One Pan Cheesy Chicken, Broccoli, and Rice

Say hello to this awesome one pot wonder meal. It was so nice to have a long weekend, but even with the one extra day off from work it still wasn’t long enough.  Why is that?  We may never know. We had a great time at our family BBQ on Saturday.  Family, food, booze…  total no brainer that it was a blast.  Anyway, my husband’s cousin and I got to talking about my blog and she asked if I had any easy, quick, and protein packed recipes.  Oh, and it has to be kid friendly.  That’s a tall order, but …
