Hey! I Can Cook!

Deliciousness

August 2, 2010

The other night I was looking for something lemony to make my husband. So, I turned to The Pioneer Woman and although she had something lemony, I didn’t have the ingredients for it. I failed to find what I was looking for art Bakerella as well, although I love how creative she gets with her [...]

Just Something I Whipped Up: Chocolate Gravy!

July 26, 2010

I have been longing for some chocolate gravy and biscuits for about 15 years now. My husband was convinced it didn’t exist, but it was a “delicacy” that my family enjoyed every time we went down to visit family in Buffalo Valley, OK (or close to there anyways). Every morning our Great Aunt Elva would [...]

Pinto Beans in the Pressure Cooker

May 15, 2010

A few weeks ago we were visiting my sister-in-law and her family in Galesburg, Illinois for Easter.  It was here that I learned about the power of a pressure cooker.  Now, there’s not a whole lot of space in our kitchen for additional kitchen gadgets, but I convinced my husband that a pressure cooker is [...]

The Best Waffles Ever!

May 10, 2010

This weekend, we had “brinner,” which we occasionally do and I tweaked a recipe I have for waffles just a bit and they came out delish. Since we’re only two people and our waffle maker is rather large and deep, this recipe is good for 2-3 waffles. Maybe more if you have a smaller waffle [...]

Chocolate Chip Cookies Redux

May 3, 2010

We were really bad this weekend. When we go on a trip, we stop counting calories. Mainly because it’s impossible to count calories while you’re traveling and secondly because there’s all sorts of food we’re going to want to try. Last night, we broke down and made chocolate chip cookies. We haven’t made them since [...]

Feeding My Sweet Tooth

April 25, 2010

If you’ve spent any amount of time on my blog then you know I’ve been on a weight loss journey. Well, I’m happy to say I’m down 22 pounds, but my sweet tooth is as strong as ever. Maybe stronger. So, although The Pioneer Woman always talks about how high calorie her recipes are, I [...]

Baked Spaghetti

April 20, 2010

I’ve had the Spasagna at Cheddar’s and I loved it and then here lately, I’ve seen a ton of people blogging about Baked Spaghetti. So, I went on a search for a good recipe and I ended up making my own little concoction. It’s partially based on Paula Deen’s, but the fact that she wants [...]

More Cake Pop Pictures

March 28, 2010

Today was the big birthday party. My husband’s mom turned 60 yesterday so we had a huge cake and the cake pops. My dining room has a lot better light in the daytime so I was able to take some good pictures of the cake pops. And they’re still kid approved. In fact the little [...]

Adventures in Cake Pops

March 27, 2010

First off, I have to apologize for the yellow tint to my pictures. My house has no natural light and all of the artificial light turns everything yellow. It stinks. But, no matter how yellow the cake pops look in the pictures, they don’t look like that in real life. They look (and tasted) awesome. [...]

Warning: Deliciousness Will Soon Be Posted

March 27, 2010

Today’s the big day.  I am making Bakerella’s Cake Pops for the first time.  I’m using PW’s Chocolate Sheet Cake Recipe and frosting for the pops as well.  I actually baked the cake and made the frosting last night.  OMG, was it ever tasty.  I’m in chocolate heaven today and tomorrow.  Pictures of how they [...]
