Genuine Greek Salad

June 1st, 2015Tina8 Comments

What do you cook when it’s hot and super humid out and you’re lazy? I eat a bowl of cereal or whip up a quick salad. I’m pretty sure a blog post about how to make a bowl of cereal wouldn’t go over very well, so I figure a salad recipe is a better thing to share with you. By the way, in case you’re curious, I’m into Grape-Nuts cereal lately (still not going to tell you how to put milk in the bowl though). 😉 The other day my husband and I had a conversation about Greek salads. When we went to …

Vanilla Butter Cookies

What better way to say thank you to someone than with cookies and coffee? The other day I mentioned to you that my best friend and her family were coming up for a visit and that my parents were also coming over at some point to help build some shelves for my shoe closet. Well, things didn’t go exactly as I had planned. (I can hear my husband say that that’s why I shouldn’t plan so much.) My friend’s daughter came down with the flu so we postponed their visit. Now I’ve got a lot of leftover Fudgy Brownies. I know, that’s a real problem. 😉 Thank goodness …

Corn Guacamole

This is my first time making guacamole. Holy guacamole… I bet that’s the first time you’ve ever heard that one. 😉 I buy plenty of avocados. I patiently wait for them to ripen. (Patiently… lol… I’m funny.) Then I cut them open and… eat them immediately with a little salt and pepper. Yup, the simple truth is that we can never keep them around long enough for me to do anything fun with them. Can you blame me? Avocado, salt, and pepper… it’s so silly simple but so darn delicious. Well, that ends right here, right now. I’m turning yummy avocado …

Cranberry Sparkler

May 25th, 2015Tina14 Comments

Summer is practically here. I realized that every summer since I started this blog, I’ve posted about a refreshing beverage… one that I’m obsessed over. You know, the one that you pretty much drink every… single… day. This summer it’s cranberry and bubbles. Throw some lime in there and the refreshment levels are positively stratospheric. Is this even a real recipe? It seems so simple that I feel like I’m cheating here. However, I never knew about this tasty concoction until I met my husband so that means there’s a chance you don’t know about it either. So this is a “recipe” …

Pancakes

TGIF… and it’s a long weekend! Most people are gearing up for the start of BBQ season this weekend, getting the hamburgers, hot dogs, and various BBQ fixings ready. However, I’ve got breakfast on the brain, pancakes to be exact. Recently I realized that a pancake recipe has not made an appearance on Tina’s Chic Corner. What the what? I mean, pancakes are one of my faves. Typically my husband makes pancakes using Bisquick with the recipe on the back of the box. While the Bisquick ones are tasty, I wasn’t going to post something that was pretty much just add milk and eggs …
