Clear Lake Shores + Skippers Cooking Demonstration

One of our favorite weekend activities is taking our dog a walk and one of our favorite places to do that is Clear Lake Shores. Its a great walk because its on the water and very quaint. Matt and I always dream about which house we would pick as our retirement home. I would have taken and posted those pictures but I felt that would have been wrong. Instead I took pictures of the area so you can see what a nice place it is. There is a public boat ramp too that allows direct access to the Kemah Boardwalk. Since you all love pictures here are some of my favorites:

Some friendly ducks...









Boat slips with a view of the Nasa side of the water. "Clear Lake Shores is regarded as "The Yachting Capital of Texas", as the city has more boat slips than people" as stated from their city website.




This is a picture of an old tree that died. Since the tree would have been super costly and difficult to remove they got a wood carver to make this then painted it. Isn't it just beautiful... and so creative!


A great sitting area for you to take a break and listen to the wind whipping around you. We always see many folks fishing here. Also the sun sets on this side of Clear Lake Shores so many of the locals gather here with their favorite beverage and watch the sun go down!

Hope you get to check it out sometime.....

Prep+Pared from Kroger - Citrus Garlic Chicken Saute

Image
The past month has included some tough moments for our family. My daughter has had three back to back ear infections. My son had a stomach virus and I've been a basket case worrying about them! Today in life we always seem busy although I'm also very firm on the belief that we make time for the things that are important in our lives. I'm sure we all have those people in our lives that always claim to be so busy but instead of getting continuously frustrated I've realized that apparently we  are not that important to them. Even with all these busy times with my own family including getting my kids well we have always made time for family and the important things. Some of my short cuts during the busy times are easy dinners. I have a few I always keep in my arsenal of grocery and pantry items. Kroger has now introduced an easy and quick option for dinner called Prep+Pared. I've received a ton of coupons in the mail for the mail order dinner subscriptions. I've l...

Flat Iron Steak with Veggie Sauté

Another yummy meal created with the help of Kroger's Prep+Pared meals. This was my husbands favorite. I felt on top of my health game making and eating this meal. The great long term advantage of making these meals are that you get to keep the recipe card that lists the ingredients and the recipe instructions which allows you to easily recreate the meal. I'm most definitely keeping this recipe and plan to make again. My kids ate the steak and the veggies (carrots and cauliflower). For this recipe I added a bit more butter to what was called for and added in some minced garlic when tossing the veggies together. Last week was tough for me when I found out about the news in Santa Fe HS. This hit too close to home and has shaken me to my core. I'm so protective of my children and cannot imagine the pain those families and affected kids are feeling right now. I do not know the answer and I think we as a community have more questions that answers. We live in a scary world o...

Prep+Pared from Kroger - Pan Seared Salmon

Image
Amazing, yummy and super easy!!! This meal prep kits was nothing short of amazing! I was very nervous going into making this meal as I have this fear of cooking fish... That I will under cook or tear up the delicate fish. I should have had more confidence in myself! This meal prep I would definitely purchase again and is totally worth the money. I did not have many of the ingredients so having it all packed together for me was super helpful! At the time of the posting Kroger is selling the Prep+Pared meals for BOGO (Buy one get one free). My first bite!! The whole meal plated! The box it came in.     All the ingredients spread out. I purchased two boxes which are each two servings. So four servings total.  The potato cake mixture. Super fresh and fragrant ingredients. The butter topping for the salmon. Sizzling salmon! Not as hard as I originally thought. Not fishy smelling at all!   Getting the potato cakes in for a little brown...
