"Samurai Slasher" Asian Chicken Drumsticks

These “Samurai Slasher” Asian Chicken Drumsticks are actually a melding of two chicken recipes I found on the Cooking Light website archives, and applied to chicken drumsticks for the grill. It all started last night, when I grabbed some nice organic chicken drumsticks on the cheap (their sell by date was today).  While I was [...]

When Blogging Hurts

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of American Osteopathic Association for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Blogging seems like it would be a pretty cushy gig.  Stay home, make your own hours and write.  The thing is the hours can actually be quite long, and many times deadlines are often [...]

A New Way for Bloggers to Earn Money

I recently did my first campaign for Linqia, and was pleased with the results.  Linqia is a social platform that rewards members with online communities for generating traffic toward client sites (yes, blogs count as communities). When selected to participate in a campaign, the staff at Linqia will run some numbers and set aside an [...]

Peppa Puggle: The Fruitless Frogger

I couple years ago my parents adopted this little black puggle, named Peppa. He is one monumental pain in the backside and a little wacko. He is cute as all get out though, and certainly has “character”.  We assume the little guy was just a bit too hyper for his original owners. My parents take [...]

"Seedy" Quinoa : A Vegetarian Recipe Fit for the Birds (gluten-free)

This recipe for quinoa with seeds started with simply adding sunflower seeds… then I must have started channeling a sparrow or something & went a little seed crazy…lol.  Since quinoa is actually a seed as well, this could have been aptly named a bowl o’ seeds, but calling it “seedy” was the only thing that [...]

Yummy Dessert in a Jiffy!

I love cooking and baking, but sometimes there are only so many hours in the day, and something's got to give. When having guests over for dinner, unless I make some time prepare a dessert the day before, a homemade dessert is not likely...

Granny Smith Apple "Journey Waffles" Recipe

These Granny Smith Apple Waffles are one of the solutions I came up with to get my daughter (Little Foodie) to eat at school.  She is one incredibly fussy little character, and getting her to eat at school has been an on-going battle all year.  She would refuse to eat more than a couple nibbles [...]

Snap It Right... there are no "do-overs".

Between Mother's Day, Father's Day, graduations, summer parties and family outings, you'll have many opportunities to get great pictures of your family and friends over the next few months. Will those shots be frameable display pieces, or Facebook fodder? The difference may well hinge on having the right camera...

Empowering Women Together: #PinToEmpower Prize Pack Giveaway

Two years ago I found myself in quite a pickle.  My marriage was ending, and as the stay-at-home-mom to a disabled child with an extensive therapy schedule, I really didn’t know how I was going to make ends meet.  In the ensuing months, I worked hard to build up my blog and start producing an [...]
