 Print This PostTo go with Pioneer Woman’s flank steak, I was in search of a side dish. Rice would have been fine, and then maybe a salad or some steamed asparagus. But that just seemed kinda boring and not the perfect summer side. Thankfully, I came across a perfect summer side dish recipe from Erin at vittles for the [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThis salad was a big hit at the Superbowl party I brought it to last weekend. It is technically a salad, but a lot of us ate it like a dip with tortilla chips instead.

Seeing this movie also increased my passion for cooking. I love to cook. I love to cook things I’ve never cooked before and I love [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostWith the mound of shredded zucchini I could have made 3 batches (6 loaves) of zucchini bread. I could have done this and frozen loves, or given them to friends. But lets face it, I just don’t have that many friends and my freezer just couldn’t take the load! If I would have been thinking more [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThe school year is about to begin! My first day of teacher prep began today, so my casual lifestyle with tons of free time is about to come to an abrupt and unpleasant end. Taking 8 months off from work to take a couple of part time jobs was pretty great. It enabled me to [...] |
