September 12, 2018 By McKenzie 2 Comments

I’m about to let you all in on a secret of mine. I don’t have many recipes that are all my own, but this rice krispie treats recipe is one of the few that I can call my own. I experimented over several years until I found the perfect combination of salt, butter, Rice Krispies, and marshmallows… and I finally found it. But then I didn’t want to share it. I wanted to keep it to myself. I finally had myself a “secret recipe” that I could keep to myself. But then I started taking these blissful squares to parties and family functions and more people started asking for the recipe and I realized that the people NEED my secret world’s best rice krispie treats recipe!

These rice krispie treats have been served at my brother’s wedding, family parties, and consumed on countless lazy Sunday afternoons. They are addicting, delicious, and dare I say… perfect! [Read more…]

These spicy marinated vegetables are always a hit! This recipe is easy to follow and your friends will be talking about this for months, I promise! It makes the perfect side dish for any neighborhood barbecue or your family meal.

Several years ago, I went to a neighborhood barbecue. I saw the most delicious looking vegetables that smelled even better than they looked. I scooped up a plateful and what happened next, is nothing short of a love story. The taste of these vegetables was just as I felt heaven would taste like. I had to know who made this. Finally, I found the woman I had been looking for. When I asked her if I could have the recipe, she paused. She then explained that the recipe for spicy marinated vegetables had been given to her by a friend who had kept the recipe a secret for years! [Read more…]

Headache Relieving Bath Bomb Recipe

April 4, 2018 By McKenzie 1 Comment

Headaches can totally ruin a day. I am lucky enough not to get them very often but when I do, it instantly makes everything a lot harder. One thing I have found that really helps my headaches is a nice, warm bath. I have created bath bombs that are made with oils that help with allergy relief and sinus relief, so why not one that is made with oils made to help with headache relief? I tried it and it is such a soothing blend!

Before I get started, I will just say the obvious. I am NOT a doctor! There are different kinds of headaches out there. This bath bomb is in no way medicine for your headache. Take medicine for your headache! This bath bomb is just going to help you relax and aide your head to continue to feel better. [Read more…]
