This is another recipe from Justin’s mom. Very good! And you can prep it ahead and just put it in the oven when you need to. This photo is sideways too. Not sure what the deal is with Picasa. I’ll try to fix them later. Corn Custard Pudding Casserole 1 pkg. frozen corn, cooked until …
Scalloped Potatoes
We had the Voogt Christmas party yesterday. I’ll post some of the recipes from the food I made. I’ll start with the potatoes. I got this recipe from Justin’s mom. Not sure why the picture is sideways :p Scalloped Potatoes 4 medium potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced (I used red potatoes with the skins on) …
New Year’s Resolutions…Sort Of
I’ve never made a New Year’s resolution. I guess I don’t see the need for a new year to make a change. But lots of change is happening coincidentally with the new year this year. And I have a few food related things I’ve been thinking about for a while that I want to change. …
Fudge
I made fudge for the first time yesterday. I’m pretty impressed that it turned out on my first try 🙂 And it was only made possible with the new digital thermometer Justin got me for Christmas. I got the recipe from my mom. A little nibble reminded me of being a kid 🙂 I haven’t …
Cherry Jubilee
Holidays are a great time to enjoy a special treat. Just because you eat a real food diet, does not mean you can’t have a dessert here and there. Should you Avoid Dessert? I try to keep our sweets to a minimum, especially during the winter when sickness is going around. But I do let …
Hashbrown Egg Bake
Justin has been talking about egg casserole with hashbrowns lately. So I found a simple recipe on All Recipes and tried it last night. He really liked it. I didn’t have any…I don’t care for sausage or hashbrowns that much. It was super simple to make, though. And could be prepped ahead. So it’s going …
Hot Fudge
This is a recipe I got from my mom. I don’t know where she got it, maybe my grandma? It’s the best hot fudge recipe! So good and so easy. I always have some in the fridge. I made this batch to have for the holidays…to put on cheesecake 🙂 Yum!!! You can make this …
My Body…Part 3
It’s tough to capture so much in a few short posts. But I’ll attempt to keep explaining my journey. I’ll turn to my mental health now. I mentioned that I started seeing a psychologist in 2005. That was a major step in my recovery, healing, growing process. I started out focusing on my anxiety caused …
My Body…Part 2
Here comes another long post, be prepared 🙂 After years of being sick and then recovering from surgery I finally felt like my body was healthy enough for us to start a family. I had been waiting for that! But of course things don’t always go as we plan. Even before surgery I knew my …
Italian Pasta Bake
This is the other meal I’m making for a family from church. Another old favorite 🙂 I think it’s a Kraft recipe. I’ve been making it for years. Easy and yummy! And I pretty much always have all the ingredients on hand. The picture isn’t of the finished product (it still needs cheese on top …
