I got creative and did a little food research and came up with what I think is a pretty solid representation of the dish. All you need are a few simple ingredients. I got…

  • All The NorthWoods Feels

    July 22, 2018thetipsyhousewife

    I made it my goal this year to work hard enough to be able to spend even more time at the lake. I succeeded in reaching my goal and have been lucky to spend a lot of the Summer in the place I love the most. I was back in the NorthWoods for an extended stay in May, June and July, and this time there was A LOT less snow on the ground. Summer has arrived in the Northwoods and I have been loving my time there. As you may or may not recall, I wrote another blog post called…

  • The Crockpot Isn’t Just For Fall

    July 21, 2018thetipsyhousewife

    I recently was contacted by Crockpot to try one of their new products. I had a choice between the Crockpot Five In One Cooker and the Express Cook. I chose the Five In One Cooker because I was very interested in all the options it had to offer. For the longest time I only thought of using a slow cooker in the cold months and had never thought how slow cooking is a great option for the hot Summer days when you don’t want to heat up your house. The Crockpot isn’t just for Fall anymore! The best thing about…

    Spring Potato Salad This Spring Potato Salad recipe has always been a favorite of mine. The creamy mayo, the celery seed and the addition of onion and crisp, tart green apple is what makes it unique. This recipe is best when made ahead of time and it sits in the fridge overnight. Potato Salad Stories I think it is safe to say that every family has their own  Potato Salad recipe that they think is the best. They aren’t wrong. To them, their recipe is THE BEST! When discussing the topic of Potato Salad with my friend Mandee, who blogs…

  • A Detroit Style Pizza Party

    July 7, 2018thetipsyhousewife

    Have you heard of Detroit Style Pizza? I hadn’t until the Food Network reached out to me to ask if they could use one of my Instagram Photos for an upcoming episode of The Kitchen featuring Detroit Style Pizza. Sure I said, why not. I was confused what my photo of Brick Cheese had to do with it, but after watching the episode, and being disappointed they didn’t say my name, I knew what Detroit Style Pizza was all about. I decided I wanted to make it so I started doing some research. There are several unique things when making…
