Lemon Pudding Pound Cake
I can't be the only one who likes lemon. I feel like once Easter hits, the desserts need to get a little lighter. I mean, I do love a decadent chocolate dessert pretty much any day of the year, but I love this time of year when the fruit, the Cool Whip, and the...
Give me a Break Green Smoothie
Well, we had an eventful week around here last week. Mr. McKinney broke his ankle and had surgery. Yep, 2 babies to take care of, but we are making it ok. He has been great about it and of course, is checking in on me to make sure I'm doing alright. After 2 years...

Crockpot Gumbo
Our baby boy came a couple of weeks ago and I knew that would mean guests and visitors for at least a couple weeks. I just couldn't stand the thought of not having some meals ready for when people got here. Or, at least groceries ready for my mom or Mr. McKinney to...
Morning Breakfast Sandwiches
This post is part of a month long series on "lighter fare" with the Arkansas Women Bloggers #FoodieFriday collection. Each week for the past year I've made these breakfast sandwiches for Mr. McKinney. I need a little variety in my food life, but he can eat the same...
