I’m Alive and Kicking- Really!

Good grief, it's been almost a year. A year!! SO MUCH has happened in that year, and I wasn't sure if I would ever get to come back. I've wanted to, but it just hasn't been in the cards until now. I wasn't sure if anyone would even care at this point if I came back. But …

Easy Printing… For Real This Time

So after being informed by my BFF that the print feature I added awhile back actually prints the entire blog post instead of only the recipe like I wanted it to, I have (with a little help from a more experienced blogger) figured out how to make only the recipe in each post printable. Yay! …

Sometimes Grab and Go is a Blessing- Chocolate Chip Muffins

We are preparing to delve into the world of homeschooling this year. We've felt the need to homeschool for years but were never in a position to be able to until now. So we won't have the hustle and bustle of trying to get out the door in time to meet the bus this year. …

Summer Sucks VI: When it’s Too Hot To Cook- “Tea” for Dinner

It's almost scary to think about, but we are heading into the "dog days" of summer; the stretch of summer that is almost unbearable. It's also the stretch of summer that if you don't have air conditioning, the microwave seems like the only viable method of cooking anything indoors. We kind of have air conditioning. …

Why I Hate Hershey’s- Chocolate Syrup

I'm sure that it will surprise no one that The Humble Food Snob dislikes cheap chocolate. And when it comes to cheap chocolate you can't get much cheaper than Hershey's.

Because Sometimes You Just Need Chocolate- Chocolate Cream Pie

I have a confession to make... I am not a chocoholic. There. I said it. I feel better now. What's the big deal you ask? Well it's precisely this: Evidently the world believes that you cannot be a real woman if you are not hopelessly addicted to chocolate. I have gathered from people's responses to …
