The perfectly delicious homemade oreo cookie that will have everyone raving!Oreo cookies are an American icon right up there with apple pie and hot dogs. But who needs all those icky ingredients and chemicals that come with the carefully and attractively packaged cookies from the store. (Although I’ve been known to devour those as well.) But not anymore! These guys here, whipped together with your own ingredients, are soft, melt in your mouth, holy goodness that will want to keep going down one after the other! My husband calls them train cookies because, you know, they keep going down one...
Because lengthy stories before recipes annoy me to bits and pieces, here is the recipe without further ado! 🙂 Print Recipe Healthy Baked Oatmeal I love me a bowl of baked oatmeal! When I started my health journey, I adapted my favorite recipe to make it more friendly to my waist.

These tasty, zesty meatball poppers are a delicious Sunday evening get together treat! I threw this recipe together last evening before visiting the awesome neighbors that live on top of The Mountain. I baked them, but they could easily be grilled for an even more savory flavor. I just made my own mouth water!

It was a rainy, spring Sunday afternoon. Let me make myself clear. This rain was the opposite of a drizzle, a mist, a shower or a gentle pitter patter on the roof. It was more like there was a cloudburst in the heavens, sending torrents of wet stuff in heavy splotches of water drops the size of peas. The water gushing through our creek was powerful in its furious hurry to move along down the hill into the lowest parts of the dense woods. But this was the day the Lord had made, and since it was spring and we...
I’ve been told that this recipe is so delicious it should be patented! Seedless grapes coated with a cream cheese mixture, leaving the perfect blend to thrill your taste buds! Because I also follow the Trim Healthy Mama way of eating (somewhat) I have turned it into a healthy albeit vicious crossover? Disclaimer: I do not claim this to be a THM dish! It is my version of healthy and I ate it all the time while losing weight while on the THMish plan. I will add pictures the next time I stir up a batch! Print Recipe Coated Grapes...
Tonight I decided I would have me a sugar cheat the size of Goliath of Gath himself. Â This means the cheat was off the charts in more ways than one. Â I knew the sugar spike would take at least two cups of coffee to level things out. Â But that’s okay. Â I love coffee. Â I also surmised that I would likely feel a twinge of guilt, but my heritage was calling out for chicken noodle soup, homemade bread, and of all things, it kept screaming and yelling at me to make Amish Peanut Butter. How Can Peanut Butter Be Amish? I...
Good Morning! Today I will be showing my secret to whipping out fresh, homemade dinner rolls for spur of the moment visitors. This secret has been a lifesaver for me on many occasions, and a little misleading, too.  Not intentionally, but still, it leads even me to believe I am eating a made by scratch dinner roll! All you do is keep a package of Rhodes frozen bake n serve dough balls in your freezer. When that unexpected guest pops in, at least you have fresh baked goods on your side. 72 dinner roll package will make 36 Pull-Apart Dinner...
Welcome to my kitchen! I am so happy you stopped in! Let’s hop right to it and get started on making that elusive perfectly flaky pie crust. First, though, let me tell you about my newlywed Amish pie crust making fails. Oh my goodness. It was an art I was determined to conquer. Um, hello, I lived right next door to my mother in law, who along with her six talented daughters have cooking and baking down to a highly impressive art. They even have their very own cookbook.
