right there, and there, oh, and on the tip of your nose too. How does that saying go? Go big or go home? So if you’re going to make marshmallows early in the morning for some reason that no one remembers, just do it. Use this recipe and make all 24.

You’ve Got A Little Something…

Soup + Sandwich
Usually means Panera but not today. Today I tried something a little different. Ok, now don’t judge me. Instead of lunch at Panera we stopped somewhere a little bit different. Somewhere that serves up their food fried so deliciously golden brown that once you taste it you crave it fortnightly but will suffer mightily if you eat it that often. Mmm… Read the rest of this entry »

One Pot Cincinnati Chili
I can decisively say that this is my favorite chili. I like Jamie’s recipe for chili con carne, Martha’s recipe for turkey chili and the slow cooker white chicken chili from Cooking Light. But Cincinnati chili is definitely my favorite.
This version is a one skillet dish from the Cook’s Illustrated Cover and Bake cookbook. The spaghetti for chili mac really shouldn’t be mixed in like this nor should the beans but in this recipe the macaroni cooks right in the sauce, one pot! Oh, and the beans? Made in the crockpot. I cooked them all day and they got nice and soft. Easy. I put half in the chili and half in the freezer. Read the rest of this entry »

Mmm, Pie
Don’t worry, I didn’t do anything crazy like make my own pie crust. This is the quick and dirty ready at 10 version of pie but it was so worth it. GAWD, this pie is good or maybe even lawdy. Yes, it’s that good. Even Ben is eating it and was dancing around asking when it would be ready and he is notoriously anti fruit dessert.
My friend Melanie mentioned this recipe to me. I think she made it herself but I never followed up to find out how it turned out. The beauty of it is, that assuming you make your own crust, you can get two pies out of the single recipe rather than just one. Read the rest of this entry »

Chicken and Dumplings
Between helping Ben through this morning’s fender bender, making more estimate appointments and being productive at work I managed to work in some time to research this idea for dinner. Chicken and dumplings. It’s another recipe to add to the seemingly unending list of ways to transform leftover chicken into dishes that are similar to but not quite chicken pot pie.

Halloweenin’
So I think we love Halloween around here just a little bit. It comes as a little bit of a surprise because it never meant much to me and Ben has this deep seated moral opposition to all “made up” holidays. But it’s really, really hard not to take just a little pleasure in something that makes the wee ones so very happy. Read the rest of this entry »

Sunday Pot Roast
This dish might be the perfect wrap up to a cold and rainy weekend. I did a little poking around on the internet and came up with this from Elise at Simply Recipes. It’s good, really good. I’ve never truly studied the technique so I was skeptical about being able to braise an entire roast using only a half cup of liquid but it works. I used my biggest pot and it worked just fine in the oven. Although I did find that I had to keep the oven set at 300 to maintain a simmer. My pot worked fine but now my desire for an enamel cast iron dutch oven is rekindled. My birthday and Christmas are coming up. Good timing, no? Read the rest of this entry »

Fake It Don’t Make It Stuffed Shells
I can’t explain what the box of giant shells was doing in the cupboard. At some point I must have thought that stuffed shells were a good idea but I can’t imagine why. So after looking at them for several months I pulled them down. Great. Except I didn’t have any ricotta cheese. That probably would have deterred a smarter person but I pressed forward convinced that I could make it work. Read the rest of this entry »

Something Old, Something New
I love weekends. I do. I wish I could be more productive though. And considering that this is my second day in I feel like I should be more rested. So, let’s see what we got up to today. Oh, but quickly, if you’re visiting for the first time via the One Yard Wonders Facebook page, hi! I’m so glad you came to visit, I hope you’ll stick around.
Speaking of One Yard Wonders and Facebook, Read the rest of this entry »

Quick Weeknight Dinner :: Baked Shrimp with Remoulade
While we were away a couple of weeks ago I copied down a couple of recipes from a magazine I found where we were staying. I’ve never picked up an issue of Cuisine at Home but it had some easy recipes that appealed to me. When I got home, I checked their website to see what they had to offer there. I don’t usually sign up for these kinds of things but decided to try it out. It’s one of those deals where you get a weekly email with a couple of recipes. This is the first one I’ve cooked from but the recipes have all looked rather tasty. Read the rest of this entry »
