10 days to Thanksgiving, are you ready?

I'm still in the process of menu planning. Colt has agreed to join me in the kitchen this year and we'll be prepping as much as we can ahead of time to simplify the process.

Colt made these Hot Apple Cider Buttered Rum Cocktails to help us warm up with the chilly weather we've been having. They are a must on my Thanksgiving menu.

The batter can easily be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge, it only becomes better with age.
The Hot Apple Cider part of these drinks can easily be kept warm in a crock-pot for an easy to serve cocktail over the holidays.

Hot Apple Cider Buttered Rums are sure to please!

Hamburger Beef Stroganoff Helper

One Skillet Hamburger Beef Stroganoff

One Skillet Hamburger Beef Stroganoffs one of my favorite quick, easy and inexpensive dinner solutions.

I've been experimenting over the last few months to perfect an easier version of our families all time most requested dinner. 

The kids 90 percent of the time request Beef Stroganoff for their Birthdays and any other time they can but my traditional recipe takes a bit more prep then this easy to make version and the hamburger keeps it budget friendly for an easy to make weeknight meal done in under 25 minutes.

I also love that every things done in one pot like the good old Hamburger Helper stuff. But this is so much better, and way easier to make! 

I am still in love with my traditional Beef Stroganoff Recipe From Scratch but this is my go to recipe for a quick weeknight meal.

It's guaranteed to please!

Snickerdoodle Cookies

Sunday, November 9, 2014
Snickerdoodle Cookies are a soft slightly tangy vanilla cookie with a crispy edge and cinnamon-sugar coating making them a favorite Christmas Cookie, for the lunch box, or just a sweet treat.

A stack of Snickerdoodle Cookies with 1 Snickerdoodle resting against the stack on it's edge.

Who can pass on a soft vanilla cookie with a crispy edge rolled in cinnamon and sugar?

I was in charge of dessert last week for our small group and decided on Snickerdoodles since they are fairly easy to make and always seem to be a favorite.

Not me, I ate way more then my share doing quality control before we even left the house.

I usually make the cookies with half shortening and half butter but I was out of shortening on this particular day and didn't miss the shortening a bit!

They are good either way and all butter made for a more flavorful cookie. 

I also sometimes make these Brown Butter Snickerdoodles when I'm in the mood for the nutty flavor of the brown butter. 

You can never go wrong with either Snickerdoodle recipe! 

Here's how to make these soft Snickerdoodle Cookies:
