All Aspects of Life are Rooted in Style
TGIF everybody! We've made it to the weekend and I'm feeling a little nostalgic today. This week's Motivational Monday theme made me think about the joy associated with sugary confections. Dunkaroos aren't candy, but they are sugary. That's close enough. Growing up, we didn't get Dunkaroos that often. It's kinda hard justifying keeping boxes of... Continue Reading →
Is it possible to create the flavor profile you need with various herbs and spices? Yes! Do I have time for that every day? No. Well kind of. We make time for the things we care about. I love cooking. Sometimes, I need a little help. When I'm in the mood to switch it up,... Continue Reading →
To avoid eating for taste, sweet and savory are two flavors I need for a balanced small meal. I am a grazer. Most of the time, I eat small portions throughout the day with plenty of water. If I remember to keep the pantry stocked with Ritz Crackers, PB&J (Jam not Jelly) are one of... Continue Reading →
A few weeks ago, I was scrolling Instagram [being active on social media] and I came across a post about a new Netflix Show called Easy Bake Battle. This wasn't a sponsored post, I follow Jacque Torres. He posts wholesome content that I enjoy. Anyways, I told my husband I thought it would be amusing... Continue Reading →
Cooking is one of my love languages. When done with love instead of obligation, it can be therapeutic There's something calming and rewarding about the start and finish of a dish.

French Toast was one of the first stove top things I learned to cook. Since it was harder to burn, I preferred making them over pancakes. To this day, I prefer making French Roast over pancake made from a complete mix. Yes, the ready to make mix only calls for water and a hot skillet,... Continue Reading →

My endgame plan is posting every Friday thru Tuesday [that's F, S, S, M, T]. The Saturday and Sunday post will be... Continue Reading →
Marshalls is one of my favorite stores, because I can buy quality products at a marked down price. In terms of merchandise, Marshalls is like Burlington Coat factory. It is very easy to get lost in the savings, because of their departments. Yesterday, I went to Marshalls to pick up shoes for my boys. I... Continue Reading →
Liguorie Lecomte is a an unlikely chef. Hear me out, he admits in his intro that he wasn't thinking about cooking and baking as a teen. He was diving into pop culture. Games, movies, books and cartoons. If you focused solely on that time in his life a career in the entertainment industry seemed more... Continue Reading →
I love muffins. They're basically cupcakes without icing. Due to marketing, muffins are associated with breakfast and snack. I love blueberry muffins, but that doesn't mean they are healthy. During one of my weekly shopping trips, I noticed a box of Blueberry Muffin Bars. Truthfully, I was looking for Nature Valley Wafer Bars. The new... Continue Reading →
