Tips on Cutting Vegetables
I don’t know about you but I for one did not pay enough attention when I was younger and lived in my mom’s house and could have benefited from her vast stores of knowledge. I am sure there was a time she taught me (or tried to teach me) the best way to cut vegetables or grill meat, or make my bed, iron a shirt….the list really could probably go on forever! If you are anything like me you have had to teach yourself these things throughout your years living on your own, and yes…sometimes I do still call my mom for various household tips and advice.
These 2 tips on cutting vegetables are my favorite. Probably because I eat salads a lot and lettuce and tomato are staple ingredients to any salad I make.

{Not Your Mom’s} 7 Layer Dip
What it is about dip…..specifically 7 Layer Dip in this case? I love chips and dip, love, love, love them. THIS 7 layer dip is by far my favorite though. Just look at it, all those layers mixed together to create yummy goodness. Perhaps one of the reasons I adore this dip is because you can customize each bite. You just dip your chip in and you can choose what to scoop up! Imagine the possibilities! One bite could be beans and cheese, the next sour cream and tomatoes, then guacamole and black olives…each bite different and delicious. Yum, love the variety in each mouthful!
Why is THIS particular 7 layer dip my favorite you ask? Well… (drumroll please) it has some oh so special ingredients that you don’t find in other 7 layer dips.

Snickerdoodles
I do love cookies….hmm…I think perhaps I have mentioned that to you before! hee hee! Snickerdoodles are DEFINITELY one of my favorite cookies, but I just don’t hear about people making them very often.
Kind of a forgotten cookie…..but NOT forgotten at my house! They are delicious and my kids especially love it when I make them because they get to help roll the cookie dough into balls and coat them in sugar and cinnamon. Super fun!! Also, sugar and cinnamon…what doesn’t taste good coated in that combination?? Seriously, if you have never had a Snickerdoodle Continue reading

Simple Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe
I simply adore chocolate chip cookies. Fresh out of the oven, warm and delicious with a glass of cold milk. This Simple Chocolate Chip Cookie Recipe has never failed me. It works every time, and I have baked them more times than I can count!
One of the reasons I love THIS particular chocolate chip cookie recipe so much (there are so many good ones out there) is because it doesn’t require me to have “softened” butter. When I get a cookie craving I do not have time to wait and let the butter SOFTEN! What happens when I have to have softened butter? I try to soften the butter in the microwave and it inevitably ends up melting all over the place which only succeeds in making me MAD and it does not fix my desire to EAT A COOKIE!
