When I was growing up my mom always made boxed scalloped potatoes to go with a honey baked ham recipe for our Easter dinner. That was when there were just six of us eating. As my immediate family and “adopted” family have grown larger and larger, a box or two of scalloped potatoes just isn’t enough and my mom started making this huge twice baked potato casserole for Easter to have enough to go around....

“We see some promising lab data suggesting that different [air purification] strategies may be effective,” says Westyn Branch-Elliman, MD, MMSc, an infectious disease researcher and consultant, and assistant professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School. “But we need more data in real world settings before we can definitively say these strategies are effective for coronavirus.” If an air purifier is part of your mitigation strategy, you’ll also want to continue practicing other mitigations....

I’ve been making pigs in a blanket forever. I mean who hasn’t? They’re one of my personal favorite appetizers (I even served them at my favorite things party!). Who knew that you could upgrade these to an even better snack with just a few added ingredients? These cheddar pigs in a blanket are so much better than the standard ones for two reasons – cheese and salt. It’s amazing how two simple added ingredients can really take these from the pigs in a blanket we’ve all had before to pigs in a blanket that everyone will have to want to have again....

When I go into any homemade bread store or walk around the farmer’s market, I’m typically looking for two flavors of bread – cranberry orange bread and cinnamon swirl bread. Cranberry orange is harder to find when it’s not the holidays so more often than not, I’m left hunting for cinnamon bread. Cinnamon bread itself is good but cinnamon bread with a cinnamon swirl baked inside is just a whole other level of goodness....

I love me some good cut out sugar cookies, sugar cookie bars, and even sugar cookie bites. But sometimes I don’t want to spend the time waiting for the cookie dough to chill or the cookies to bake. And sometimes I just want to eat a little cookie dough. This edible sugar cookie dough is everything you want from a sugar cookie but in dough form instead of actual baked cookies....

Whether it’s fresh toppings to put on our favorite Instant Pot chicken tacos or something to make a main dish like these eggplant rolls – it’s definitely one of our summer highlights! That and grilling all the food we pick up at the farmer’s market. We typically put together our weekly menu based on what we get from our weekly co-op and things we pick up at the farmer’s market....

My kids could do scavenger hunts every day of their life and not bored. There’s just something about the words scavenger hunt that gets them excited and makes things seem fun. So it’s probably no surprise that I have tons of scavenger hunt ideas on my site! In the past, I’ve done mostly holiday scavenger hunts but I figured it was time to branch out and start doing some more generic ones, like this summer scavenger hunt that’s perfect for doing anytime during the summer!...

Super Bowl Guessing Game One of my most popular Super Bowl posts is these Super Bowl commercial bingo cards. I think people love them so much because you can play without really knowing anything about the game, so they’re fun for all ages and all football interest levels! This Super Bowl question game is a fun one because like the bingo cards, anyone can play and you really only need to know football basics (but if you don’t, you can ask someone) – not really anything else....
