Ravioli Florentine

This recipe is a copycat of a dish that Applebee's used to offer. This meal is absolutely delicious and a great way to sneak in some greens without significantly altering the flavor.

Battery Organization

Since January is national organization month I thought I would share another tip for getting your household in order. This simple plastic divider box has been keeping my batteries in order for over a year now. It makes it so much easier to find our batteries and I will never go back to just tossing them in a drawer.

Grocery Bag Organization

A lot of people like to organize during spring cleaning but for me the urge usually comes right after Christmas. After a few weeks of extra decor around the house followed by trying to find places to put the gifts that we received - I start to feel like the clutter is closing in on me. The Christmas decorations usually go back into storage on December 26th and the purging and organizing begins! One of my projects this time around was finding a better storage solution for grocery bags.

I ended up folding them like paper footballs and I am really pleased with the result. In the photo above, both the before and after show 20 grocery bags! It is a great space saver and now I can easily toss a couple in my purse and the glove compartment in the car so I always have one on hand. The rest fit nicely in a small corner of one of the kitchen drawers so I have extras to line the bathroom trash can. The folding process is super simple:

Chicken Cordon Bleu Pasta

This dish leaves you with a lot of dirty cookware but it is so good that it is worth the extra effort. As soon as we polished off all of the leftovers, my husband wanted me to make it again!
