    Chicken and Broccoli Mac n’ Cheese

    I decided to try something new.  I am not big on veggies and so I have been trying to sneak them in wherever I can for myself.  It doesnt really work the same though, does it?! Haha Well I stumbled across this recipe from Beachbody and decided to tweak it to the ingredients I had on hand and give it a go.  The main difference in the recipe was that I didnt have any almond milk, so I used organic whole milk instead. Outcome?  I actually didnt hate it.  I actually quite enjoyed it.  Cheese makes everything better though, doesnt it?! To get started, cook your macaroni of choice according…

    The Jones Assembly

    Date Night in OKC…..sometimes it is hard to know where to go or what to do when you get to go out for a date night with the significant other.   We tend to do alot of movies and dinner, but this time we wanted something different.   We decided to go check out The Jones Assembly on the Historic Film Row downtown OKC.   Ya’ll we spent 4 HOURS there!  We took our time and went to all the different areas and just slowly enjoyed our evening. We got there at 4pm, and since the dining room wasnt open until 5pm we went and set out on downstairs patio.  From 4-5 we sat out…

    Super Simple Taco Soup

    Its that time yall!  SOUP WEATHER!   This taco soup is so simple.  So simple that Bug can do it without any assitance.   We tried this recipe and loved it and have been using it as a base for years now.   To begin, you just need to brown you meat in a little bit of olive oil.  I love using garlic infused olive oil in my dishes to get that extra oomph of flavor to the meat.  Here you could add in onions and fresh garlic if you have it on hand.  We didnt this time, so we skipped it.  After your meat is browned, you may need to drain any grease.  I dont…

    Quick & Simple Cashew Chicken

    I dont know about you and yours, but in our house we love us some Chinese food.   I stumbled across this recipe for Spicy Cashew Chicken on MommaChelle and tweaked it to fit my lazyness and our tastes.  It is now a regular in our rotation of go-to dinner ideas.   We tend to cook a lot of rice all at once, so we can easily pull it for the next meal to help save time. So this meal is easily on the table in 15 minutes.  This recipe was already a great recipe, but I found that I could cut out some of the ingredients and steps and make it that…

    Hickey from Kenicke?…No…Hickie Laces!

    I hate when I’m walking around at a park, on a trail, or in a store and my laces come untied.   Whats even worse is when they are so long and they lean up against my leg and tickle me. My first reaction is to swat my leg because it could be a spider.  {Not sure why thats my first thought….but it is!} So I was thrilled when my Hickies Lacing System came in.  I immediately put them in my sneakers and tried out different lacing options. I first tried them on the regular option of lacing them and tried them like that for a couple of days, but found…
