Roasted Chestnuts are suppose to be a Holiday Staple ... so they say. | #FoodThoughts #RoastedChestnuts


In November 2016, was the first time my family and I ever ate Roasted Chestnuts. I was 32 yrs old at that point and I truly found the experience quite entertaining and fascinating .... especially since my hubby--the non-holiday-lover in our family--was the one who had the idea to try them. So ... below are photos that I took of the chestnuts AFTER they were roasted and at the very bottom of this post I'll let you know what we tought of them. 🌰🌰🌰 😋

Train Lover Cake - Nana's 3rd Decorative Cake for Her Grandchildren | #BirthdayCake #FromJesstoYou

For my Son's 3rd Birthday (in December 2016) we were in the process of a state-to-state move ... so a few weeks before his actual birthday we were able to be at my parents’ house to celebrate early. That year my son was really big into trains and kept saying he wanted to be a train conductor someday. Therefore, my mother (i.e. Nana) created a "train cake" for him. Basically she made three individual chocolate cakes, made a peanut butter icing to frost them with, and then had a cut out gingerbread cookies in the shape of a train that she lined up on both sides of the cakes ... as you can see in the photos below. My than 3-year-old LOVED it!

I recently #vlogged what I cooked for dinner! | #dietlife

During the end of September 2019, Jess had joined a read-a-thon and the below video starts at the point when Jess talks about/shows her cooking.

Food Thoughts :
  1. Garlic green beans - Delicious but my go too is still just adding black pepper.
  2. Egg-white Omelettes - My kids loved them especially since they "tasted like pizza."

Within the end of March 2018, Jess had joined a read-a-thon and the below video shows a complete reading fail for that read-a-thon while she does show off some of the baking she accomplished. 😂 Oh wells. 🤣 Enjoy!


If you can't see/watch the above video then click here to watch it.

Food Thoughts :
  1. The bacon came out good. No complaints.
  2. The Girl Scout blondie ... in truth it wasn't amazing but it wasn't bad either. I'd recommend it only if you are looking for a tasty non-sweet treat.

If you are interested in picking up a box of your own Girl Scout baking mix than check out these :

Boy Land - Nana's 2nd Decorative Cake for Her Grandchildren | #BirthdayCake #FromJesstoYou

For my Son's 2nd Birthday (in December 2015) we really could not pin down what theme to do ... so we went for it all! Nana (my mother) created this cake and came up with the items she new my son would appreciate the most. I'm calling it her Boy Land cake and it was another success! Plus, everything used on that cake both of my kids still play with even though almost three years has passed! Please check out the photos below.

Princess Castle - Nana's 1st Decorative Cake for Her Grandchildren | #BirthdayCake #FromJesstoYou

In May 2015 my mother (Nana) decided to create my then 4-year-old Daughter's Birthday Cake instead of ordering one. Nana decided on creating a Princess Castle for her Princess and it was quite the success (please check out the photos below)!!

The cake was a box one that was a purple swirl. My daughter loved it!


I was quite proud, especially since it was the first time for her to take something like this on!

KISSES Candy Cane Blossoms | Hershey's @HersheyCompany #fromjesstoyou #dessert

** I first found this recipe on the back of the Hershey's Kisses bag (see below photos) in December 2014. Check out Hershey's website for more info. **
Ingredients
  • 48 HERSHEY'S KISSES Brand Candy Cane Mint Candies
  • 1/2 cup butter or margarine (1 stick), softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 egg
  • 1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons milk
  • 1/3 cup red or green sugar crystals, granulated sugar or powdered sugar for rolling
Directions
  1. Heat oven to 350°F. Remove wrappers from candies.
  2. Beat butter, granulated sugar, egg and vanilla in large bowl until well blended. Stir together flour, baking soda and salt; add alternately with milk to butter mixture, beating until well blended.
  3. 3. Shape dough into 1-inch balls. Roll in red sugar, granulated sugar, powdered sugar or a combination of any of the sugars. Place on ungreased cookie sheet.
  4. Bake 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are lightly browned and cookie is set. Remove from oven; cool 2 to 3 minutes. Press a candy piece into center of each cookie. Remove from cookie sheet to wire rack. Cool completely. Makes about 48 cookies.
My Attempt/Success with this Recipe :

Recipe/Ingredients Changes : I didn't change a thing!


My Family's Verdict :

My Thoughts : These were my first attempt in baking cookies for my daughter's school teachers ... and it worked out well that my daughter was able to help make them too. I would definitely bake/make them again. However, you really need to be a peppermint fan for you to truly enjoy this version.

My 3-year-old Daughter's Thoughts : LOVED making them as they were easy and very interactive for her age. Plus she enjoyed eating them too.

Gift Receiver's Thoughts : They raved about them! But whether that was because of the gesture in receiving them OR because they actually liked them still remain to be seen. =0)

My Attempt/Success with this Recipe :

Recipe/Ingredients Changes : It worked out very well, except all I could find at the time was crunchy almond butter.

My hubby first found this recipe in October 2013.

My Family's Verdict :

My Thoughts : We all really liked them. A little dry but tasty! However, they were VERY crumbly and I'm not sure if that was because of the crunchy almond butter OR just how the cookies are typically.

Mmmm .... steak

Okay ... I know it's not much to look at (especially since it's all cut up already) but I'm soooo proud of myself for this steak. Very good at least for me. I found out I cooked my hubby's too well done. Yet overall I still call it a success. 😎

So here it is ... my steak:
