It’s still not quite feeling like fall around here and frankly I’m getting irritated. Fall is my favorite season and I’m ready for it to start. The leaves changing colors, the sweaters and scarves. The one thing I usually have to warm up to is the food. I love grilling in the summer so it’s
Graham Cracker Chicken Nuggets, also known as “get my weirdo son to eat chicken mission.” I’m reporting that the mission was a success. Any of you that know me well know this a complete feat. Noah has never liked meat of any sort except for deli meat. No chicken, burgers, pork, nothing. He does like

First I want to start off by saying thank you to each and every person, past and present, that has served this country and especially those that have sacrificed their lives to protect our freedom. I’ve mentioned before that my dad served in the Air Force for 20 years and I will be forever grateful
My dad doesn’t like cheese. Seriously, it’s lucky I love him because otherwise he would have to be disowned. Who doesn’t like cheese? I truly don’t understand what would cause such a thing? I totally get people not liking blue cheese or gorgonzola. Those are strong cheeses and a bit too much sometimes. But cheddar,
