When Wendy asked me to edit this recipe, I had no idea she meant she didn’t say anything about it! For being so intelligent, she sure wasn’t thinking when she basically gave me free reign to type a paragraph or two (you can take just guess about all the things […]

Oh My So Much Pumpkin
This year there are pumpkins everywhere. How I love the smell of pumpkin cooking and wish it would last throughout the year. Here is one way I get my pumpkin fix for the rest of the year. I make Pumpkin chips and pumpkin powder. My dehydrator is a good friend […]
Easy Peasy Pumpkin Pasta
Each time that I make pasta, I wonder why I don’t do it more often. It really isn’t that much effort and fresh pasta is amazing. I wish that I could say that I came up making pumpkin pasta but the idea came from fellow blogger, Jamie Scott. She is […]
Pumped up Broccoli Cheese Soup
When I was a child, we showed horses. Some of the fondest memories of my life were during this time. Believe it or not, this recipe was inspired by these fond horsey memories. I remember going to the Quarter Horse Youth World Show in Fort Worth and ordering these HUGE, […]

“Lick the Blender Clean” Hatch Chile Dressing
I keep a huge bowl of salad in my fridge at all times. I love to be able to serve my family a fresh and delicious salad with our dinners. Unfortunately the big kid (read: my significant other) isn’t an eager salad eater so I always keep a dressing on […]
Fennel, Tomato and Sausage Soup
I love to share my fennel recipes because fennel is one of those things that gets a lot of confused looks at pickup. I think that fennel is especially yummy in Italian recipes so I whipped up this soup on a recently fall evening. As soon as weather gets cooler […]
