Lime cookies

What can you make when you have an abundance of limes...well, cookies, of course!

Key Lime Cookies

I didn't add like zest, but they really tasted great without it anyway.

Yum, yum!

Pumpkin muffins

Pumpkin, pumpkin, pumpkin... The fall always means yummy pumpkin treats.  Finding healthy pumpkin treats is hard sometimes. I mean, until today, I don't think I would consider any of my baked pumpkin goods 'healthy'. But today I may have found something close. The recipe I found on pinterest calls for while wheat flour, coconut oil, and honey. No added sugar, butter, or vegetable oils!  The result...delicious pumpkin muffins!

*I did use Kind Arthur's all purpose flour because we didn't have whole wheat.

I will definitely make this again!

Ribs!

Thanks to an awesome deal at the store, I got 3 racks of ribs to somehow learn how to cook. I had never made ribs before in my life! Last month I bbq'ed one of the racks. It came out okay, but not as 'fall off the bone'as I had hoped.

The second rack was cooked tonight. I decided to bake this rack. I marinated the ribs for an hour and a half in one bottle of bbq sauce and 8 (bbq sauce) bottles of water. After cooking, I placed in the oven for 40 minutes to bake. Result...FALL OFF THE BONE delicious!

Next month I will try the slow cooker!

French toast eggs!

A recent favorite among the kids and myself are French Toast Eggs! Just mix a couple of eggs (or egg whites for me), a couple tablespoons of milk, a couple teaspoons of cinnamon and then scramble or make omelet style. Add some honey as a topping and you have a yummy breakfast!

Dirty snack!

Mud pudding! The kids love it. Pudding (usually chocolate, but we used vanilla). Crushed Oreos on top. A few gooey, I mean gummy, worms! Hide some in the pudding!!
