strawberry jello pie

This strawberry jello pie recipe came into my hands a few weeks ago. 

As part of my wedding shower, my mother-in-law requested that all the guests bring 

a recipe with them (since both my fiancee and I love cooking). 

You'll be seeing a lot of these recipes show up here.

the perfect sunday dinner, PW style

If you know me, you probably know that I love The Pioneer Woman. Her website is an

entertaining blog that covers a variety of topics: witty commentary about life on the ranch, homeschooling
her 4 "punks", gorgeous photography and tips for beginners, and delicious recipes
with step by step instructions. My friend Jessica (who actually sent me the link to PW's site)
and I have been plotting for months to get together and cook some of the recipes from her site.
She came down to visit this weekend and we made the most delicious Sunday dinner:
Pot Roast and Potatoes Au Gratin.

peanut butter cupcakes

This recipe actually comes from my fiancee's family, so I'm going to let him introduce it...

"When Jamie first decided to start this blog, I told her she had to make my Great-Aunt Bug's 

peanut butter cupcakes. Bug was a classy lady. As the story goes, she spent a number of years 

living on her own in New York City in an era when that sort of thing just wasn't done by 

single women. She amassed a rather large collection of antiques, big city culture and 

a wealth of scratch recipes. When she returned to the family farm in Blue Rapids Kansas, 

she took to setting up her home and swapping recipes with her friends and family.

These peanut butter cupcakes have been baked for generations with love and butter, 

by fiercely independent and classy ladies."
