Baked Penne

I don't cook with a lot of cheese these days, but since I both ran and did yoga today I'm craving something hearty and cheesy and homey.  Plus we have an abundance of penne in the house.  This dish is pretty easy, I didn't make much from scratch. I know my kids will love it!…

Rainy Day Cooking

It has been pouring rain all day, even the chickens who don't mind the rain retired into their coop. I thought about weeding the garden in the rain cause I'm crazy like that and it is really a never ending project, but decided to spend the day in the kitchen playing around instead. I thought…

I only used one head of broccoli next time I will use two. Broccoli Cheese Soup: Sautée for a few minutes in soup…
