Green Tea Frapp - Now That’s Using Your Melon
Wednesday, May 7th, 2008This week’s WFMW is all about what DOESN’T work. Last week I promised to share my green tea frapp recipe, and the reason I came up with it is because of what doesn’t work for me: paying too much for those tea drinks at my local Big Bucks coffee shop.
I gave it a name that’s […]
Some Like It Cold (Frapper’s Delight)
Wednesday, April 23rd, 2008In my last WFMW post I mentioned that it would probably take me all week to find my frap-style coffee recipe. I wasn’t kidding. I found it Tuesday afternoon, and I’m oh so glad I did even if it means writing this late at night.
This recipe goes by the basic assumption that you’ve
1.) Got leftover coffee.
2.) Taken the […]
Big Sticky Mess - Now with Pictures!
Friday, March 21st, 2008This morning the kids and I hurried up and baked another batch of Resurrection Buns. Why the rush? Well, it’s Easter egg hunting season at our local park. Sugary, buttery cinnamon buns are the breakfast of choice before hunting down sugary, chocolately treats. Makes my teeth hurt just thinking about it.
Because I aim to please, […]
Big Sticky Mess Update
Thursday, March 20th, 2008Mommy Reg at both Mommyhood Adventures and Mommyhood Essentials (How does she do it? I can barely manage ONE blog!) was kind enough to ask how our Resurrection Buns turned out. Funny she should ask.
They turned out pretty well, but the “recipe” still needs some tweaking. We used about four or five of the mini […]
Food 911: Easter Edition
Wednesday, March 19th, 2008Today the kids and I are going to make special Easter buns. We don’t know what to call them because the “recipe” came from Little Sissy’s kindergarten class last year. Did I ever mention Little Sis doesn’t always pay attention in class?
Our first attempt last year didn’t turn out too well. That’s when I learned […]
It’s Not Easy Being Cheezy
Friday, February 29th, 2008Not long after arriving home from the honeymoon, I realized my husband was veeeery different from me. He had certain…umm…how do I say this? Certain expectations.
He actually wanted DINNER! Every night! I was horrified.
You mean to tell me you don’t just eat a couple bites of Ben & Jerry’s straight from the container […]
Dinner is Ready When the Smoke Alarm Goes Off
Monday, January 21st, 2008In honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. the girls had the day off from school. It was a cold, rainy, perfect Inside Day. We don’t get a lot of rain here so I look forward to days like this. We stayed comfy and cozy in our pajamas all day and spent the morning snuggled […]
