Oven-Fried Japanese Chicken Wings (Tebasaki) + BYBC 2015

I spent last weekend laughing my guts out, learning, making new friends, meeting old friends for the first time, and being inspired. Taste of Home magazine sponsored me to go to Build Your Blog Conference (BYBC) in Salt Lake City, UT.

*I hope you’ll join me in participating in 24 Days of Giving—one simple way each day, from December 1st through the 24th, to do an act of service for someone else.

Tomorrow, after you’ve eaten your Thanksgiving feast, the leftovers have been put away, and you’re cleaning everything up, DO NOT throw away those turkey bones!! If you do, you will be missing out on a turkey that can keep on giving. Instead, pull out your slow cooker, and throw the turkey carcass into it, along […]

What isn’t easy to forget however, is how much better things taste when they are eaten during their season. They are bursting with flavor. It used to be that we didn’t have […]

Here we are again, getting our kiddos ready to go back to school (or in our case, already back in school)! I always loved this time of year growing up. I loved starting the school year with a new outfit, new pencils, a new binder, etc. Now as a parent, I think it’s a great […]
