Saturday Glazed Ham

Since it is Saturday and I have no place to go, I decided to make a glazed ham for dinner. My husband works weekend shifts now and it makes for long days! He won't be home for supper, but will be able to enjoy this ham for days to come. There will be lots of options on how to use the leftovers. This is an easy recipe that is full of flavor. Please try it out for yourself, especially since Easter is right around the corner.







  • 6-8 lb ham (you may use bone in or boneless- whatever your preference may be)
  • 3 c. packed brown sugar
  • 3 tbs. Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1/2 c. spicy coarse brown mustard
  • 1 1/2 c. Dr. Pepper
  • 2 tsp. Garlic Garlic seasoning (Tastefully Simple's Seasoning, if you don't have this ingredient.. ask me how to get it! I am a tastefully simple consultant.)
Combine all ingredients (except for the ham) in a small pot on the stove. Warm the ingredients on medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar melts and becomes a thick glaze. You can make this ahead of time and then store in the frig for later use. It will thicken even more as it cools.

Place the ham in a baking dish or a ceramic dish w/ lid and bake at 325 degrees for 2- 2 1/2 hours. Please check the package on your ham to determine how many hours you need. It is based on pound. Be sure to cover the ham either with aluminum foil or a lid. After it has baked for the required time. Baste the ham with the glaze and put back in the oven for another 20 min. Continue to do this step until the ham is nice and glossy.

Let ham cool before slicing down. Absolutely Delish!

Getting an organized kitchen!

Hi everyone! I wanted to share with you how I stay organized and save money in my kitchen! I can't say that I have always been organized... actually I'm still working on being an organized person! It's a working progress! My passion is cooking... my love is in the kitchen and this is where I focus a lot of my time.. so it makes sense that I would start organizing my life there! When I became a stay at home mom, I really needed to sit down and focus on how I can save my family money. The one thing that everyone has control over is their food budget! It's normally the first place that everyone seems to cut back on when finances are stretched thin. You don't need to coupon for hours upon end to save money and be frugal! So you may be wondering what I do that helps me save money on my groceries. I keep a freezer and a pantry inventory! Do you do that? If not, you seriously need to consider it! How many of you know exactly what you threw in that deep freeze months ago? O

Becoming a Homemaker

Recently within that past few weeks I had made a lifestyle change that has affected my whole family. Not for the worst, but for the best. I decided to walk away from a career with an employer that I was with for several years. It was a decent job for what it was, but a part of me couldn't fully focus on the work that was required of me. The reason was that my true place was at home. My heart was always at home. Our evenings were so stressful with both my husband and I working different hours and always relying on someone else to be raising our children. After long talks, we decided to take a leap of faith and allow me to stay home and raise our children. Did we have a savings built up? No. Did we know how we were going to manage being on one person's income? No. I don't think we still know how we are going to fully handle this... but we are doing it! Our lives will be filled with more joy, more free time on the weekends to be with our family and not be tied down to the hous
