Mimi’s Easy Jambalaya Pasta Recipe
Magic. That is what I need in my life. If I were to find a magical lamp filled with a wish granting genie I know just what I’d ask for –3 additional wishes, because duh, a date with Ryan Gosling, also duh, and the ability to wish for any meal anytime for the rest of my life and have it delivered. Because I hate cooking
Ranch Chicken Wraps
This weekend we are heading to King’s Dominion for the first time with The Dudes and I am so, so excited about checking out some of the food options! I know. I. Know.

How to Make the Perfect Fried Pork Chops
Growing up, my parents had a way of ruining things for you. Not big things, not fun things, mostly just edible things.

Nearly every night of the week that occurred between 1994 and 1996, we had a meal created with the stuff
Family Meal: Leftover Rotisserie Chicken Recipe
A week off from making kitchen magic for my Disney vacation and now I’m back! Okay, in fairness, I am not hardcore back in the kitchen, but I am slowly easing back into this existence and, if I’m honest, and you know I always am, we ate Taco Bell for dinner on Monday because really, I just could not. Tuesday I got a rotisserie chicken,

Family Meal: Taco Salad with Avocado Dressing
