I’m obsessed with oatmeal. I’ve been loving hot oatmeal for breakfast lately. There’s something so delicious and comforting about it. It’s warm and hearty and makes a delicious autumn meal. I prefer the plain kind (I may have gotten this preference from my husband) and then I top it with fruit and cinnamon. Blueberries are my favorite to add but we’re getting to that time of year when they start to get crazy expensive and they stop tasting good (really a rather bad combo). Now I’m using raisins instead, and those are perfect all year round. A few months ago …

Mexican Style Stuffed Sweet Potato
I’ve been on a kick for finding healthy lunch recipes that I can make ahead of time to bring to work and today’s recipe is a new addition to the rotation. I love sweet potatoes. My husband is not as much of fan as me so if you’re like him, then feel free to use a regular baked potato instead. It’ll still be super tasty, I promise. I’m not into eating meat lately, so this is a wonderful vegetarian option. It also happens to be “healthy.” I use quotations because everyone has their own definition of what’s healthy. I consider …
Sugar Cookie Bars
I love sugar cookies but I really dislike rolling them out. I’m too much of a perfectionist and I get very frustrated rolling out each cookie to be the same exact thickness. I have this same complaint about gingerbread cookies too. My solution is simply avoid cookies that involve this step.

In fact, not only are they easy (and stress free) to make, but you can whip them up quickly with minimal dishes to wash. …
Football Food Recipes
Welcome back football! If you’re new to my blog then you may not know that I’m a fan of the game. Yup, I like girly fashion stuff and football. 😉 With the season starting up this week, I thought that I would share some of my favorite food to eat on game days. Because who doesn’t like pizza and snacks? Of course, any one of these recipes can be enjoyed any time of the year, not just on a game day. I’ve even included some never before seen photos. 🙂 Snack food is a must, and I love this Cowboy Caviar. …
Tuna and Rice Salad
How does one save time getting ready in the morning? Monday through Friday I feel like I’m rushing in the morning to get everything done on time and out the door for the office. I’ve been driving to the same office for years, but the traffic has gotten worse. A couple of months ago I decided to reevaluate my morning routine and revise it to get things done early enough to make it to work on time. The answer is to plan ahead, prepare, prepare, and prepare some more. The first thing I decided to do was to pick out my outfit …
