Sensational Strawberry Cobbler

I went on a little grocery trip earlier today to pick up a few things.  As I entered the store I came upon  a pretty sweet sale on strawberries.  4 packs for 5 bucks!  So naturally I had to grab them up.  After making this impulse purchase, I thought about the reasoning behind why said strawberries were on such a great sale......the store was under going minor reconstruction and all of the berries were not refrigerated.

I also love to use hashtags somewhat incessantly even in a blog where they are not linked to anything because I think it makes me cool but I digress—-

So I thought to myself : “what am I gonna do with all of these strawberries?? Maybe I should bake something”

So I hit up that trusty ol’ search engine we all know and love and went through recipe after recipe until I found it.

This strawberry cobbler dessert from geniuskitchen.com came out pretty fantastic and it is super delicious.  The only changes I made were to drizzle some syrup on top of the strawberries, and also to just cut the strawberries up.  To heck with presentation! It’s all going to the same place, right?

Chicken pot chicken pot chicken pot pie

So I know in my last post I mentioned I would be talking a little bit more in depth about couponing and cash back apps such as this awesome app called Ibotta, but I actually want to discuss a recipe that I’ve been using repeatedly for the past five or six months.

I just discovered this delicious—no—SCRUMPTIOUS recipe from progresso.  These mini chicken pot pies are the shiznit.  My husband asks for them at least twice a month if not more.  I mean...they really are just that good.   I do tweak mine a bit and use sharp cheddar cheese instead of mozzarella and it comes out just fantastic.   I also buy the food lion brand biscuits which comes with ten biscuits. Yes I make all ten.  And yes.  They taste amazing.  Imagine if you only made 8!  Anywho, I would highly recommend trying the recipe.  It’s awesome.






Busier at home

This is first post on my blog and I have to say it’s pretty exciting!  This blog will be primarily about how I fill up my time since having to quit my job as an unfortunate necessity.  I will spare the details to avoid bad mouthing.  It’s just not one of my things.  I have gone from working 40+ hours a week to staying home full time.  After the worry and shock of it all started to dissipate, I began wondering what I would do to fill up my days.  Having a little one does keep me busy in and of itself.  Wouldn’t change the time I have with her right now for anything.  :)

My first task was to figure out how to get the most bang for my buck.  So naturally, I thought about couponing.  There are numerous apps available like Ibotta for one, which I will discuss in detail in my next post.   Until then, toodles!
