Gluten Free French Dip Sandwiches

With 98% certainty, I can guess what hub is going to order when we are out and when French Dip Sandwiches are on the menu.  He always orders it.  He loves it. But.Ā  That is a big cheat for him.Ā  Not only is the roll an obvious problem, the au jus hides gluten in the […]

Gluten-Free Apple Crisp

Juicy, ripe apples are one of my fall favorites. Here is the gluten-free apple crisp I made. Already a simple recipe, and it would be easy to sub regular flour if gluten is not a concern in your house. Apple crisp is easy to make, hard to mess up and can easily be adapted using […]

Kitchen Bar Stools

The time came to say goodbye to our kitchen bar stools.Ā  It was another hard parting, much like the dining room we recently changed. Our old counter-height stools were the perfect height, the perfect foot rest, perfect match with the kitchen dining set. But.  They were old.  And apparently not made to last.  The seat […]

Tzatziki

I channeled my inner Mediterranean this week and whipped up some fresh tzatziki to go with some yummy pita and frozen falafel I picked up on my Trader Joeā€™s run. DF Denisse (who really is of Greek descent and not just a poseur like I am) told me how easy it is to use up […]

I donā€™t use enough cleaning supplies to order monthly from Grove, so […]

Easy French Dip Sliders

Probably 8 times out of 10, hub orders a French Dip sandwich if itā€™s on the menu of any restaurant.  Any place, any time.  He loves it.  So when I came across a recipe for Easy French Dip Sliders, we had to try them. Are you a fan of YouTube like I am?  One of […]

Shark Pet Plus Cordless Stick Vacuum

Just when you thought youā€™d heard every stick vacuum review I could possibly write, I hit you with another one.  We bought the Shark Pet Plus Cordless Stick Vacuum and here is my honest review. Hereā€™s the scoop.  We LOVED our Dyson stick vacuum.  But the dang battery doesnā€™t last long.  Not as in it doesnā€™t […]

Spring Tidying

Have you started spring cleaning yet?  Are you going to?  Um, me neither.  More like spring tidying.  Hereā€™s a peek at what my FANTASTIC week looked like.  Including a little spring tidying. Back Patio Hub got out the power washer and sprayed off the chair cushions around the fire pit, the grill and dining table.  […]
