Welcome Home!
I am so excited to share my brand new kitchen with you all! I wish I could have had the pictures up sooner, but I’m sure you all know what a big chore it is to move your entire life in to a new house. Getting everything just in its place is quite…
Slow Cooked Pot Roast
Growing up, my sister and I had any choice we wanted for our “birthday meal” on the day we celebrated our birthday. It was always the same thing… homemade fried chicken, mashed potatoes & gravy, corn, and some variation of a jello salad. We only ate homemade fried chicken twice a year. Why…

It’s easy, economical, and extremely customizable…
