Everyday I get more and more excited to move to the new house. I finished the painting of the last room. Flooring is in the process of being laid. After that, it's trim and adding in a few final touches. Then the big clean up. Tony added some electric to my makeup vanity in my [...]

Low Carb, Dairy Free Pumpkin Ice Cream
The house is literally down to the home stretch. The amount of large projects is dwindling. I am finished with painting my bedroom in a color which I thought was going to be a warm gray. It ended up being taupe instead. When you are saving money on paint, there are bound to be a [...]
Low Carb Pumpkin Whoopie Pies
I decided to change things up on the dessert end this week. I will be making more ice cream, but I wanted to do something different. This week I started working some evenings on the house because we are getting close. The countertops are in the kitchen as well as a working sink and dishwasher. [...]
Lower Carb Pumpkin Cranberry Cake
I've made pumpkin desserts and cranberry desserts. I have not made a dessert with both pumpkin AND cranberry. If they are both good on their own, maybe they would be great together. This is what I plan to make. I got the idea when I came across a recipe for Pumpkin and Cranberry Cake from [...]
Low Carb Pumpkin Bars
I'm finally getting around to doing a pumpkin dessert recipe. It wouldn't be fall without at least one. I love pumpkin pie as much as the rest of you, but I save that for Thanksgiving. I also know there are more sweets made with pumpkin than just pie. I found a really interesting recipe from [...]
Sorghum & Pumpkin Beef Stew
I will admit this week I chose this recipe because I wanted to do some beef stew and try some more things with my Instant Pot. I managed a solid second try with making almond milk yogurt. Still working on perfecting this. Using whole milk was easy to make yogurt with. Non-dairy milk, not so [...]
Kerry’s Basic Chili
(Forgive me for the generic picture this week. The nephews had me so busy that I forgot to take pictures. I'm sure you can imagine what your standard chili looks like. Just more orange.) Everyone should have a basic chili recipe. It's one of those recipes that you can pull out and feed a crowd [...]
Pumpkin Artichoke Ratatouille Pork
Since the summer is winding down, I thought it would be nice to do a recipe that featured some the great vegetables the we have this time of year. I found this recipe for Artichoke Ratatouille Chicken from Judy Armstrong at Taste of Home and it was a near perfect fit. This recipe has plenty [...]
Spaghetti Squash Lasagna with Pumpkin Marinara Sauce
One thing that I don't do with my cooking, if you haven't noticed already, is cook with pasta. There are two reasons: I am gluten-free and the calories aren't worth it. Pasta, either gluten-free or not is about 200 calories per cup. No nutritional value. Luckily, Tony and I don't crave pasta at all. That's [...]
A Thanksgiving inspired beef stew
I was looking up a recipe to adjust for you this week, but found that I ended up developing my own instead. I had some leftovers to use. No, not turkey but the other half of a beef roast from another recipe. The recipe also called for canned cranberry sauce, which is terrible. If I [...]
