I love chicken pot pies. However, it always seems as though the individual pot pies sold in stores are too much to finish in one setting. I consider pot pies to be more of a quick bite of food to fill my tummy and not a whole meal. Plus, these pot pies are an excellent size for little kids. I thought it would be great to

I decided to try my hand at making homemade peach cobbler with homemade pie crust. Of course, we know that the crust makes the cobbler.

What do you do when you have too many potatoes and you don’t want them to go bad? You have a potato-cooking day! That’s exactly what I did. For some reason, I didn’t get around to cooking the bag of potatoes and they were going to go bad. So, I began cooking. I decided to make two types of potatoes today…….fried and oven-baked. Why?

Yummy Bite-Size Ice Cream!

Today, I decided that I would make some ice cream bites with the remainder of the ice cream in the refrigerator. I like ice cream. Some people in my house love ice cream.

I’m the person that would cut out some of the middle of the biscuit if it has too much bread in the middle. It’s obvious that I like the top of the biscuit and the bottom of the biscuit.

I was back in the kitchen again. My kids told me that I was supposed to bake them chocolate chip cookies last week. Well, of course, I used some of the chocolate chips in the Edible Flowerpot Cake and didn’t think that they would remember about the cookies. Of course, they did. So, my daughter, London, was in the kitchen early this

Okay. I had to make this! It was too interesting not to make! Everything on this cake is edible. Who knew that pansies were edible and the leaves! Of course, we’re not going to eat them, though. But, you have to admit that when you see this flowerpot, it actually looks like a real plant. I was
