This was another recipe that I made for the Chili Dog Dangle Dance that we had on June 9th for the Silver Fox Squares. I did not find the graham cracker sticks mentioned in the original, I did, however, find some Scooby-Doo snacks which looked like doggie treats, so I decided to just use regular graham crackers and they worked out fine.
I found this recipe on my Facebook feed. Click here for the original link. Continue reading “S’mores Dip”
This is our basic meal plan for the week. Sometimes we will switch the days around if I forgot to set something out or put something in the crock pot. Please feel free to use this or change it around to suit your family’s needs.
I have started trying to do easier meals on days that I have square dancing obligations. This helps me to be able to put a nice meal on the table without feeling guilty about having some much needed ‘Mommy Time’. Some of these meals may also help with those that have busy or irregular schedules due to work or extracurricular activities.
I do have ‘Snacks/Desserts’ listed as well. I always try to keep a bowl of fresh fruit out on the counter or table for the kids to snack on. Sometimes I will make a special snack or treat for us to enjoy.

++I have a few kids who seem to be going through growth spurts right now and are always HUNGRY. I have been keeping a pot of beans, blackeyed peas, or other vegetable as a side. I also have been buying a few extra snacks like fruit, veggies, yogurt, etc.
Someone passed this recipe to me a while back. I’m not sure where it originally came from but it is so rich I only make it every now and then. Continue reading “Peanut Butter Brownie Dessert”
National Strawberry Rhubarb Pie Day is the day to celebrate Strawberry Rhubarb Pie, a delicious old-fashioned recipe. It is always on the 9th of June.
We can’t grow rhubarb very well here, but I think I might try one of these recipes with Roselle in place of the rhubarb to see how they turn out.

This is one of those recipes that I’ve had since high school. I make this at least once a year, usually around the time that the squash is overflowing from the gardens. When I freeze the zucchini I will shred it and add a couple of shredded carrots to it as well to make this recipe a little easier to prepare.
I normally double the recipe and make 2 loaves at a time because it is so good! I love it right out of the oven with a little bit of butter on it. Continue reading “Zucchini Carrot Bread”
