It’s that time once again. Time for Secret Recipe Club! This month I was assigned Jaida’s blog Sweet Beginnings. I really enjoyed looking through the wide variety of recipes on her site, but these Baked Garlic-Beer Fries grabbed my attention almost immediately!

Every year since I was little, my mom has made stuffing for Thanksgiving. And I’ve never eaten it. A couple years ago, she made it and the hubby LOVED it. The following year, it was our year to stay here for Thanksgiving and even though we didn’t see my parents, the hubby requested my mom’s […]
It’s time again for another Foodie Penpals reveal day! This month, I received my package from my girl Jordan over at Food, Sweat & Beers.
