Easy Homemade Pinto Beans

I love homemade beans, they are so much better than canned, not to mention that even with the time and labor you save at least 40% of the cost of canned beans. Now don’t get me wrong, I do use canned beans, as they are convenient. But if I have just a time bit of extra time I will make a large batch of pinto beans and freeze them in baggies.

You can cut these in large pieces to serve 12 or 24 for smaller treats.  I ended up cutting them into 24, bagging them all up and putting them in the freezer to {Read More}

The Easiest Homemade Whipped Cream

I love whipped cream. The real stuff. There is just nothing that beats it. One of my favorite treats with whipped cream is ice cream.  I don’t know what it is about the combo.  Basically is all milk and cream, but something about the texture of the whipped cream and the frozen ice cream, just amazing!
