I kept seeing this recipe on my favorite cooking website, The Pioneer Woman, but never bothered to check out the ingredients or make it, as frankly, with a name like Penne a la Betsy, I had no idea what it was.

Popular belief has it that Twinkies never go bad, but there's a disgustingly rotten Twinkie currently up for auction on eBay that proves this wrong. Oh so wrong.

One of my boys is obsessed with spaghetti. He can’t get enough of it. So, in my house, I make spaghetti once a week. I also make my own sauce, so this can be a bit time consuming. I got tired of getting home after work and trying to make spaghetti and get it done before bedtime. So, I came up with a crockpot recipe for spaghetti sauce.
So, I am a baker. I love to bake anything – cookies, pies, cakes and breads. Pretty much anything you can bake, I’ve done it. I know there are people out there who aren’t as gung-ho about baking as I am
Fudge is one of those Christmas time goodies that I could live without. However, I know a lot of people who love fudge, and not just for Christmas. This actually works out pretty well for me. I am always struggling during the holidays to try not to over eat, especially when it comes to those Christmas time classic goodies
America has a 90 day emergency supply of oil, but most Americans have only a 3-day supply of food.
If you’re looking for a gift this year for the true Missoulian, or if you’re just looking to ship a little Missoula to someone for Christmas, then look no further. We have put together a list of gifts that are unique to Missoula and Western Montana
There are certain candies that you can only get at Christmas time, and there are certain candies that you only eat this time of year too. I have a short list of candies that make my list. You may notice that all of these delicious holiday candies have chocolate
