Top Ten Posts of 2012
1. Easy Chicken Bake Recipe: If you want something tasty, easy to make, that is just as easy on the budget, this is the recipe for you.
2. Master Pastels Hair Chalk: Apparently lots of you wanted to know about this cool hair chalk that we tried out earlier in the year. Lots of temporary color whenever you want it makes this hair color all of the fun with none of the commitment.
It also shares some safety tips for new teen drivers {or new drivers in generally}.
4. Slow Cooker Macaroni and Cheese: Who doesn’t love macaroni and cheese? You know what’s even better? Macaroni and cheese with very little work. Put this yummy dish on and enjoy this comfort food.
5. DISH To Drop WeTV? Downsized Cancelled? So Many Questions: I love the show Downsized but when WeTV said they were potentially dropping the channel it was going to be on, I wasn’t pleased. It turns out they didn’t drop the channel but Downsized got cancelled anyway. 
Ferris Bueller’s Day Off {Hughes, 1986}
6. Top 10 Movies Of The 80s: This is a compilation of mine {and several other bloggers’} favorite movie of the 80s. Several of you chimed in with yours, as well.
7. Box Appetit Lunch Box and Bento Box Review From Reuseit: This handy bento box makes lunch time a snap. You can organize all your lunch items in this convenient, microwavable lunch box.

8. Luke Bryan Love To Get Your Day Started Right: A lot of you were feeling the love for Luke Bryan just like I do. Good choice, ladies. Good choice.
9. How to Assemble An Electric Fireplace – Classic Flame Flagstone Fireplace Assembly Instructions: Need to know how to assemble an electric fireplace? Check out this step-by-step guide {with pictures} to find out how.

It was about this blended family {a BIG blended family with several kids} that lives in Arizona. They owned their own construction company and the mother is a teacher with a Master’s Degree. When the housing crisis hit, they lost the business and then their home. The show starts with them trying to rebuild their lives after all of these crises.

Totally loving the Chicken Bake! I’m always looking for new ways to fix chicken
Looks like you had a great year.
I love your food pictures! They always make me hungry and ready to experiment in the kitchen (and that’s saying something cause I really don’t like to cook!)

Thanks! I don’t much love cooking either. My husband and daughter do most of it in our house!
