Lightened Up Sheperd’s Pie

So this recipe is totally a day late! Ugh, with Spring break last week and and life’s daily craziness I could not get it together to share this recipe with you before St. Patty’s day. Sorry friends!  Just because St. Patty’s day is over doesn’t mean you can’t make Sheperd’s Pie!

Broccoli and Cheese Soup

I originally made this Broccoli and Cheese Soup recipe for my blog over 2 years ago. Yikes! Boy does time fly!  I have been going through my recipe archives lately and some of them are have serious need for updating. While the recipes are great the photos are blahhh. I have come a long way in my photography, but I still have lots more to learn.

Creamy Carrot Soup

So who’s ready for spring??? This girl right here is! Although we have had a pretty mild winter here in Dallas and I should not complain, but I miss the flowers and most of all my vegetable garden. Which I just reminded myself that I need to do some research on gardening in this new to me climate. I think I can start planting in March! Yippee!
