11 Delicious Pancake Recipes

Ohhhh, I could eat me some pancakes all the day long. Breakfast in general, actually. I could eat breakfast all day, every day, for the rest of my life and never ever get tired of it. Pancakes and waffles and cinnamon rolls and eggs and fruit,– all washed down with gallons of hot chocolate and […]

White Chicken Chili Recipe

When my oldest was in kindergarten, he and my husband entered the school’s chili cook-off. And won. He’s now in 6th grade, and every year since, he and his dad have been trying in vain to recapture their former glory. Every year they enter. And every year, the Best in Show Chili Medal has been […]
