Tweet! I made my Mama’s homemade ice cream this week… I was a good girl and made it with entirely fat free ingredients… Then I added coffee, chocolate, and crushed oreo’s – Defeating the purpose of the fat free angle? No – I prefer to think of it as picking where I want my fat [...]

Tweet! When I saw this recipe featured on Tasty Kitchen yesterday – I knew I had to try it immediately, if not sooner.

Tweet! Welcome to Tasty Tuesday at The little brown house! I decided this week to make something that doesn’t require using the oven – Of course, the Northwest is having a mild summer for some reason, and it is only about 73 degree’s here today! But I know for some of you it has been [...]
Tweet! Yep, once again I am sharing a recipe that is not really light on calories.. Remember back when I said I would be sharing more Weight Watchers recipes because I was going to be trying to eat healthier? WW Friendly Minestrone Umm, well that wasn’t me.
