A couple of weeks ago my husband declared that he really did not love strawberries anymore…REALLY??? How can you not love strawberries? Well, I did not want to give up my little addition with strawberries…so I decided to see if there was anything that I could do to make my strawberries last a little longer, since I am the only one eating them. I came across this wonderful post from “To Simply Inspire” and I decided to try it out. Continue reading →

I watched the Pioneer Woman cooking show the other day and she made some Lasagna Roll-ups for Ladd’s Grandmother.

My husband thought that they looked good, so I decided to do my own version of these, with a meat sauce and they were delish!

I love this recipe because I can put as many or as little in a pan and freeze them! They are perfect for a small family, empty nesters or someone who is alone. Continue reading →

I finally got my picture with the Pioneer Woman… from when my DIL and I went to the Roots Tech Conference back on Feb. 2nd! I guess that it is better late than never, right? But really, how long should it take to email a picture? If you missed my post on meeting P-Dub aka Pioneer Woman you can read about it here.

Here is my proof that I really got to meet her! She is so cute and fun and bubbly and it really was a thrill for me to get to visit with her for a few minutes.

My DIL and I have been waiting for a picture of us and the Pioneer Woman together; it was supposed to be emailed to us from the RootsTech conference… but it has not come yet and I decided that I would go ahead and do this post. When the picture comes I will insert it later. :)

This is a picture that she signed for me!

I asked my DIL if she would consider writing this post and she very graciously agreed! So this is her version of what happened that day! Continue reading →

Frozen Fruit Cups

These little fruit cups are to die for! They are such a treat and they are wonderful because you make up a big batch and put them in the freezer and they are ready to go whenever you need one! They are my “go to” for breakfast, but they are good at noon or at night too! They are so refreshing, especially on a hot summer day! I always eat mine partially frozen and it is a frosty fruit delight!

The recipe is from Pioneer Woman and you can get the recipe here.

It has frozen peaches, canned mandarin oranges, crushed pineapple, bananas, fruit juice concentrate and lemon juice. Her recipe calls for fruit cocktail, but I don’t like that, so I just add a few more peaches! When I started making this recipe I had frozen peaches from my garden, but they are long gone and now I have to buy the peaches. But I will be freezing a lot more peaches this year just for this recipe!
