  • #tbt to a post I have linked to many times before. The blog/life balance is no joke, especially now. I have some things I need to talk to you dears about in tomorrow's post, so stay tuned! These are some fun cookies I came across at the Vintage Market back in March at @adorebylydia 's  booth. 😊
  • Ever try to make french fries at home and they never come out crispy? My oh my, do I have your solution!
I once had that problem too. It was disheartening, really. I mean, seems like a silly thing to be disheartened about, right? It seemed so simple, yet I couldn't get it right. Soggy fries are a thing of the past! Now I have homemade, hand-cut french fries and they're so simple to make. 
#linkinbio, so get to baking!
  • #tbt to one of my favorite ways to have potatoes-- herbed sheet pan potatoes! This roasting method for spuds elicits some very fond childhood memories. They're very easy and they add so much favor without a whole lot of effort! Growing up, there was no chance of leftovers.
Want to try it out? #linkinbio , so get cooking!
  • For today's #whatsnotinframe ... we're making french fries. And what an oily experience! I mean, it was delicious. But we've got some oil on standby, an oily napkin, and a brush -- for brushing on the oil! 
New post on Friday, so stay posted!
  • Did you know I have a YOUTUBE CHANNEL?? Yeah, me neither apparently! I don't post on it as much as I should, but after this week I found out I should do it more often. There's a link in my bio for my YouTube channel, so you should go check out this week's video and subscribe to make sure you get notified when I make new content!
This week is vegetable stock... in an Instant Pot (or on the stove)... using veggie scraps! Yeah, it's easy AND cheap to make your own vegetable stock. You'll be asking yourself, "why the heck did I ever pay money for this??" Seriously. 
#linkinbio and #ontheblog so get cooking!
  • #tbt --and this is a real throwback -- how to make turkey stock!
My blog wasn't even a month old yet, and I'm teaching everyone how to make stock out of their thanksgiving turkey carcass! And seeing how you dears also might be having turkey this Easter, makes sense to bring this oldie but goodie to your attention. 😊
There's still so much to be had on a turkey, even after all the good meat has been picked off. I made mine in the slow cooker at the time, but who knows? Maybe I'll revamp the recipe for the Instant Pot this year!
#linkinbio, so get to cooking!
  • For today's #whatsnotinframe ... it doesn't look so attractive today, does it? There's a reason for that. 😉
Today went a lot differently than planned. I woke up thinking that I was going to do a completely different recipe, when everything fell through. It's these days where you can't afford to have a pity party. Get up my dear, and keep going!
But otherwise, not a lot happening out of frame -- except for those tweezers! I got them at the dollar store and was so excited to try them out. 
New post on Friday, and it's gonna be a little different, so stay tuned!
  • This week's post is finally out! I've been looking forward to making this post for a while and I'm so happy that I get to continue to share my love of coffee with you. 😊
This week's post is all about coffee makers and finding out what is best for you. Maybe just a regular coffee machine is your speed, or maybe you might prefer a French press. #linkinbio and #ontheblog, so let's find out together!
  • #tbt when this post came out some time last year... it was probably over a year ago now! I was inspired by the root of chocolate -- not as a solid, as we know it, but a creamy but spicy drink. #linkinbio, so drink up!
  • For today's #whatsnotinframe ... A failed picture concept. They can't all be winners!
Anyway, the whole scene looks like a bit of an oddity because it is! I had one of my posts, "3 Ways to Make Coffee Without a Coffee Maker", absolutely blow up this weekend. Mind you, I made that post a few months ago! So in the spirit of lacking a coffee maker, I decided to talk ABOUT coffee makers and what might be the best solution for you! It's a little bit different, so I'm hoping you dears enjoy it. :)
I think my odd item of the week is the plastic bag, holding little globs of rubber cement! They're great for getting items to stay, even when they don't want to. 
New post on Friday, so stay tuned!
  • Don't mind me-- I'm just enjoying my curried deviled eggs! 
I believe that the premise of deviled eggs is tired, old, and needs a little shake up. That's where the curry powder comes in.
And seriously? That's all it took. It's a great party finger food, especially with Easter coming up! You just might want to put a tag to let your guests know-- this isn't going to be what they're expecting!
#linkinbio, so get cooking! 😊
  • tbt when I made these eggs... Man, I really need to make these again! These were a part of a two-part series. Part one was loaded mashed potatoes in the slow cooker and part two were the eggs that you see here. The mashed potatoes were reheated and crisped into the pan, and scrambled eggs were poured on top to make an egg and potato pancake, of sorts. 
Did I mention that there is bacon in it?? Oh yesssss, it is very delicious!
I'll put the #linkinbio to both recipes. And for another egg-related recipe, come back tomorrow for my newest post! 😊
