It’s Tasty Thursday!!!

Let’s just take a minute and talk about these delicious cookies! I have a small obsession with chocolate chip cookies so we try many different variations. This one came about one night when my husband was talking about how much he loves dried cherries and oatmeal. So… I thought… why not add them into a cookie? (You can see these were Deep thoughts – lol!) The Bomb! cookies are an explosion of yumminess, and that’s how they got their name. Have a fantastic day and ENJOY the cookies!

Pan Roasted Corn Salsa

OH MY is this Corn Salsa yummy!! This is a family favorite around here so it goes quick!
It works great as a dip with chips but is equally yummy as a side dish. Have fun and enjoy!

Ingredients

3 TBSP Olive Oil
2 1/2 Cups Fresh Corn Kernels
2-3 Large Tomatoes Chopped
2/3 Cup Green Onions Chopped
1/4 Cup Fresh Cilantro Chopped
1/4 Cup Red Onion Finely Diced
3 TBSP Line Juice
1 TBSP Jalapeno Peppers Chopped
3 Garlic Cloves Minced

Instructions

Heat Olive Oil in large skillet over high heat. Add corn kernels (The best is when they’re fresh cut off of leftover corn on the cob but you can use frozen corn in a pinch!) Saute corn until light brown (about 5 minutes) Transfer to large bowl and cool.
Chop, dice and mince remaining ingredients and put into a bowl and mix together. By the time you’re done with all the chopping, the corn should be cool. Add the corn to the bowl, mix it up and you’re good to serve! Season with Salt & Pepper if desired.

Note: If you like it HOT – then add extra Jalapeno peppers. You can use the pre chopped ones from a jar. Same with the garlic – you can also use the garlic from a jar. For each “Clove” I use 1 tsp.

Projects

Welcome To The Pawnee Cutie!

Our very first home that we officially “Flipped”! This was such a FUN project! When we first walked in you could tell that this was a home that needed some LOVE! Everything needed to go so we ripped out flooring, cabinets, walls – added new sections to enhance the flow and added a much needed second full bathroom in a space that previously was….. well…..let’s just say it wasn’t somewhere you ever wanted to hang out in before! This project came right as COVID started so we took a little longer than we had expected but in the long run, it was totally worth it! Check out the before & after pictures & videos and let us know what you think!!
