Hey guys, how's your October going? It's about to get tastier! I'm over at Evermine today sharing these deliciously addictive Apple Pie Spice Pecans!
I made a bunch of these nuts last year as gifts to family and they were gobbled up so quickly. My husband even adores these! He thinks I need to keep them in the house all year long. I would, too - they are incredibly easy to make. [Read more...]

It's beginning to feel a lot more like fall here. We've had some thunder, rain, and colder temps and I am loving it! Have you guys picked out your pumpkins yet? We haven't, but I think we're aiming to do that next weekend.
What do you think of the new weekly menu? Did you notice that there is now a save button next to the print button in the recipe index? Hopefully that will make your meal planning a bit easier. A couple of the recipes on this week's menu are either recipes I don't have a link for, or recipes we're developing, but we'll list all of the ones we have!
I'm not sure how many of you go to our Catz Facebook page, but if you haven't liked it yet, you should. We're almost up to 1,000 likes and once we hit that I am going to be offering a giveaway! How does that sound?
Have a great week guys! [Read more...]
I've been posting a pumpkin recipe at least once a week since the beginning of September. I don't know about you, but I happen to love that. However, I realize that some of you may be tired of #pumpkinflavoredeverything, and for those of you that are over the pumpkin recipes, I'm giving you a week off.
Probably just one week...
...because I can't promise you that there won't be any pumpkin recipes next week. That's my disclaimer. It's just that good... [Read more...]
This Slow-Cooker Pumpkin Butter recipe is festive, yummy, gluten-free, and great as a gift! It's also super easy to make - just throw it in the crockpot!
Hey guys, I'm over at Evermine sharing something pretty wonderful Slow-Cooker Pumpkin Butter! Hot diggity, it sounds good, doesn't it?
I'd never had pumpkin butter up until this point, but I was missing out because this is pretty spectacular. Did I mention how good it smells simmering all day in your slow-cooker? Oh my goodness...there aren't enough words! [Read more...]

Hey, guys, and Happy Columbus Day! Please tell me you're all getting a day off, because between you and me, I think you deserve it.
We're back from vacation and all rested up. It's nice to get away ya know, but it is also nice to come home, especially when you have something to look forward to. For example, getting a new kitten (check!) or working on a new weekly menu format! For awhile now, Josh and I have been scratching our heads, trying to figure out a way to make the weekly menu a bit more accessible for you, and as helpful as possible in preparing for the week ahead.

Seeing as though my pregnancy has the tendency to sometimes drain me of energy, I like to plan meals that I know I can throw together quickly, but that will still fill my family up. This is one of those go to dinners for me. I almost always have the ingredients on hand and my crockpot does all of the work for me. Which I have to say is really really nice on hot summer days when I literally feel like, "I'm melting, I'm melting!" (Quick: Name that Movie!)

I need to be comforted. After watching the Season 3 finale of Downton Abbey, I'm needing a hug and some love. I feel oddly attached to the characters of the show. I'm wondering who's getting on Carson's nerves today, or if Daisy is indeed going to take over the farm like her father-in-law has requested. Is baby Sybil walking yet? How I wish I was served my breakfast on such a cute tray every morning by Anna and NOT O'Brien. And I think Mary and I would be best friends, because, well, let's just say we share some not-so-admirable qualities. But after Sunday...I'm not celebrating that Thomas finally seems to have a heart and has gained a friend. I'm not celebrating that Ms. Patmore had the good sense to kick the grocer to the curb. And I'm not celebrating Mary's newborn son. Well, I am...but I'm not. IT ISN'T FAIR!!! [Read more...]
