Ramen Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe

July 19, 2017

I love a quick and easy soup that doesn’t take hours to prep. Plus ramen reminds me of college and how often I had ramen dinners. Back then I wasn’t adding in veggies or chicken I was going for the pure real deal because that is what I could afford. Now that I am no longer on a college kid budget I love taking ramen and stepping it up a bit. This Ramen Chicken Noodle Soup Recipe is crazy easy to make and tastes so good!

It is a little reminder of how far we have come since our college days of scraping together enough to get ramen for dinner. Now we can willingly eat ramen and just smile as we do it.

Doesn’t that look so much better than what you remember it looking!…

Classic Martini Recipe

June 28, 2017

When I think of a classic guys drink the first thing that comes to mind is this Classic Martini Recipe. Maybe it is the image of James Bond swaggering up to the bar and ordering a martini with so much panache but this drink is truly a classic. I figured if I was going to be talking about manly guys cocktails that I had better cover how to make a classic martini recipe!

This is a cocktail recipe that is perfect for so many occasions! Guys night to date night you just can’t go wrong with a martini.

The question that always comes to mind is shaken or stirred…..

The other question is gin versus vodka and it is honestly up to you! One thing about making a Classic Martini is you really get to decide which flavor works best for you and your tastes. You can ask 10 people how they like their martini’s and I bet you would get almost 10 different answers. If you ask my wife she will tell you she wants a Lemon Drop Martini and to skip the classic recipe for one with fruit or other flavors. LOL!…

We try and save brownies for those days you just have to have chocolate. I mean honestly, that may mean that it is a Wednesday and the sun came out so that is a reason to celebrate with brownies. Or maybe we booked a flight to a new national park = celebrate with chocolate brownies.

LOL! Do you have a dessert or chocolate that you love? Don’t get me started on ice cream..hello yum! I will fully admit to having a giant sweet tooth!

You can’t go wrong with this great green cocktail on St. Patrick’s Day or really any day you are looking for a delicious drink. Jameson Irish Whiskey always reminds me of being in Ireland a few years ago with Tammilee. Our guide pulled a bottle of Jameson out of his bag on a cold afternoon and had each of us take a swig from the bottle.

We all warmed up quickly, and it brought the group even closer together. I really wish we would have been able to visit the Jameson storefront in Dublin while we were there. It was under construction, so we were not able to visit. I am pretty sure this is a perfect reason to return to Ireland and spend more time in Dublin. I could go with a nice hot Irish Coffee and Guinness Stew.

We did make it to the Guinness Storehouse while we were in Dublin. Check out my Guinness Storehouse post over on Tammilee Tips about the Guinness Storehouse. One of my favorite places we visited in Ireland.
