I have been loving my new cast iron skillet! Now that I know how to clean it, I’ve been using it almost weekly, and the dinners that come out of it are out of this world. Personally, I’m a fan of chicken and fish, and now that I’ve ventured into the realm of cast iron

When I asked the fiancé what he wanted for dinner the other day, he said, “I don’t know, something with vegetables.” Now, I’ll never pass up veggies, but the fact that they were specially requested made it extra important.

Sometimes, you may find yourself in a hurry and need to make dinner in a rush. Sometimes, you even get time to prep for these occasions. In this case, I started marinating some chicken with the intent of making it Sunday night. Well, Sunday night came and went. We weren’t even remotely hungry, since I

Hello, all! This might be my last consistent post for a while. I’ve been trying to keep this up for as long as I can while I find a full-time job and work my temp position. Sadly, I just don’t have enough to spend on extra groceries right now if I want to pay the
