Coconut Almond Muffins

Sunday, August 21, 2011 | Publish by Thaydra

 This morning I got a baking hair up my butt, so decided to make these.   The recipe has been taped up to my kitchen cabinet for a few months now.  I was looking at it while refilling my coffee cup, and realized I had all of the ingredients, especially that sour cream, which needed to be used before it went bad.  I grabbed all my little containers and began to make a mess.     The recipe says it yields 6 muffins.  I used my standard 12-cup pan and had just enough batter to do...

Un-Sloppy Joes

Thursday, August 18, 2011 | Publish by Thaydra

Tonight's dinner was Sloppy Joes.  This is the first time I've ever made them from "scratch".   I got this recipe from Taste Of Home.   I didn't have any onion powder, so I just used a crapton of garlic powder.  The sauce came out very thick, so if you are a fan of that (I kind of am), then you will be pleased with this.  It was kind of sweet, but not too much.  I liked it.  My daughter (11) did not, but my son (14) did, although he didn't eat a bun.   My boyfriend...

Cookies & Cream Cheesecake Cups

Tuesday, August 16, 2011 | Publish by Thaydra

  Is there really any better way to start off a food blog than with cheesecake?  How about Oreo cookie cheesecake?  How about Oreo cookie cheesecake cups?  Do I have your attention yet?  These little morsels are a cupcake-wrapper full of heavenly sin.  As a matter of fact, in the time it took my boyfriend to take these delicious pictures, I had devoured 3 of these bad-boys.  I will pay for that on the treadmill later, but my-oh-my are they worth it.     I guess this...

Welcome!

My name is Thaydra, and I am not a chef, or a cook, or a baker, or even really domesticated yet. I am a mom, though, so I do need to prepare food on occasion. I started this blog to keep track of all of the thousands of recipes that I have.


So many times I try something, and think "Oh my, that sucks!" or "Hmm... this would be good with [insert ingredient here]!" or "Holy cow, that is delicious!!!". But, after months of not touching the recipe, when I go back to it, I can no longer remember which of those categories it fell in.


Here, I hope to keep track of the different recipes I try, and their outcomes. I can keep notes on what I would do different, or if one kid liked it, or (miracle) both kids like it... And you can add your own notes, too, if you have any!
