In other words, YOUR NEW FAVORITE CHAPTER OF LIFE. I am completely dead over these. Dead and gone. Gone and buried. Buried and forgotten forever. Wait. A few weeks ago I made some crispy chicken rollup thingies from a magazine, that were stuffed with baby swiss and deli ham. And they were just . . […]
Friday Flotsam
FaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaRIDAY. Dudes. Oak mites. Also known as Satan’s ELVES. Have you heard of this obnoxiously itchy plague happening in the Midwest right now?

Slow Cooker Chicken and Bean Tostadas
Tostada Tuesday! (shhhh.) Not only that, slow cooker tostadas. Slow cooker chicken and bean tostadas. Slow cooker chicken and pinto bean tostadas with fresh pico on top! Ugh. And the cheese?
