Pickled Hot Bologna

Hello, hello! And happy 2023! It’s been a little while since I’ve posted a recipe on here. I was a bit busy growing our little nugget, who we had in November. He’s the best thing EVER! But needless to say, we’ve been a tad busy, so I haven’t really had […]

Kimchi Fried Rice

Hello there, It’s been a slow few weeks lately. We’ve been house-hunting, but the houses that have been hitting the market aren’t the types of houses we’re looking for, or they don’t have everything we would need in a next house. Plus the prices for homes that still need a […]

Zucchini Bread

Hello Hello! With my garden overgrowing in tomatoes, eggplant, and zucchini this year, I had to get a little bit creative with the recipes. One such recipe was this one – a scrumptious Zucchini Bread. Being on Keto most of the year made it difficult for me to stay away […]
