If Your Belly is Full, Give Thanks.

If Your Belly is Full, Give Thanks.

These days it seems that just about everybody has an opinion on how their food should be grown and produced. Organic vs. Conventional, GMO vs. non-GMO. etc.  With so many food buzzwords, misconceptions and various opinions, debates tend to get heated. I often wonder if folks would have less to say about the food on their […]

Fancy Macaroni

Smoked Gouda. Bacon. Mushrooms. Butter. Best Macaroni and Cheese EVER! I had purchased a small block of Apple Smoked Gouda and while I normally just eat it by the slice, I wanted to do something amazing with it. I call it, “Fancy Macaroni”!

Watermelon Salsa

Watermelon Salsa

This stuff is as good as it looks and is the perfect summer snack.  I found a similar recipe from the Pioneer Woman, but changed it to my liking.  My husband can’t quite take the heat like the Pioneer Woman’s family, so I tamed the recipe.  Eat it with chips, serve as a side dish or top your chicken with […]

Mini Peanut Butter Chocolate Cheesecakes

I have a bit of a cheesecake making obsession.  I think it is because they are quite simple to make, yet seem so fancy. But, here is the weird part…. I don’t like to eat them.  I know it, I am a freak.  I just don’t care for sweets.  My husband, mom and youngest sister […]

Steakhouse Pizza: The lazy girl version

I previously posted a blog called Modern-day Farmers: Breaking the Stereotype and it got my wheels a turnin’. The post was about how today’s farmers have various hobbies and interests other than farming. I happen to be one of those farmers with other interests. In fact, when I am not farming, I enjoy cooking, getting […]

What does a farm chick have to blog about?

December 13, 2013

What does a farm chick have to blog about, anyway?  Well folks, I’m a modern-day farm chick.  It ain’t 1940 and most people aren’t getting their milk from their own cows or even their neighbor’s cows.  These days, consumers are buying their dairy products from the grocery store and are wondering where in the heck […]
