My philosophy....homemade is ALWAYS healthier, is ALWAYS cheaper, and is therefore BETTER!

When you make things homemade you will naturally never put in as much sugar or salt as the companies do-you just won't. Plus homemade means no preservatives and you know the common rule-your food should be able to go bad or its not real food!

When you make things homemade you're always saving money! Who wants to pay the manufacturer, shipper, store, etc. each for a box of cookies!?!?!

Once you go homemade-you'll never go back! Fresh food that YOU produced for your family will not only leave you feeling accomplished and proud, it tastes incredible and you'll never be able to eat the packaged stuff without comparing-and homemade will win!

Have fun, experiment, and Enjoy!

Garlic Cheese Pumpkin Dip

Don't worry the pumpkin is only for display.  I look forward every year to Halloween so I can have this yummy cheese dip at my aunts house.  I asked her for the recipe so I could make it for my sister-in-laws baby shower and it was as big of a hit there as it is in my belly each Halloween.  And surprisingly easy!








Cut the top off a small pumpkin and scrape the seeds out. (don't forget people will be eating the dip out of here so cut the top a lower than you would just for carving)

In a bowl mix:
1 package softened cream cheese
1 container garlic and herb allouette cheese
1/8t pepper
2 eggs

Pour cheese mixture into your hallowed out pumpkin.  Place pumpkin and lid on a cookie sheet and bake for 1 1/2 hours at 225 degrees.  The cheese will bubble up and brown on top.

Serve with crackers!  This is sure to be a favorite go to recipe for a fun and delicious appetizer for fall.  


Be Creative and Enjoy!
