Baked Ziti

This was the very first meal I ever made for Casey, back in the first week or two that we were dating. He loved it, but unfortunately it wasn't REAL baked ziti... the day started out horrible, and everything that could go wrong did go wrong. I was scrambling to get something prepared for lunch, because I knew Casey would be to my apartment within the hour. At the last minute I found 3 Baked Ziti Smart Ones (Weight Watcher meals) in my freezer. I tore them out of their packages, stuck them all in a baking dish, and popped it into the oven. When Casey arrived, it smelled as though I had been slaving in the kitchen all morning preparing some elaborate Italian cuisine. He ate every bite and loved it.... A few months after we were married I told him the real story :) This recipe, however, it the real one that I have made several times since that day and it hasn't let me down yet. Hope you enjoy!

Baked Apples

Well it's Fall time again. By far my favorite season! It's just too bad that here in Utah, Fall doesn't last too long before the snow arrives. So instead of enjoying a freezing Autumn outside, I like to enjoy it inside with Autumn flavors and recipes. Baked apples are DEFINITELY the true taste of Fall. I made this last Thanksgiving for the first time...and WOW, so delicious!! At the time I was craving oatmeal, and ice cream and then somehow I landed on baked apples. Funny how the mind works, huh? Anyways...you have to try this recipe. It's so gooooood and super easy to make! Hope you enjoy it as much as Casey and I did :)

Starting Over....

So last year I started a blog, and I absolutely loved updating it each week...until a certain person I absolutely dislike found it. This discouraged me from posting anymore, and I stopped doing what I loved to do! But now I'm back, and it's going to be different this time around. Even if I am found again, I will keep up my recipe and craft posts. I owe it to myself to never stop doing what I love doing!! I figured since it's the start of a new season, why not make it the start of my new blog as well? So here we go, Blogger Round 2. I hope you enjoy!
