Check Out This Recipe for Roasted Pineapple

Last week our local grocery store had pineapples on sale for $1.  I had to grab a few for the youngest of Los Tres Amigos.  This kid is a pineapple fanatic.  Seriously one year Hubby and I gifted him with a pineapple corer as a stocking stuffer and he still proclaims it as his "best gift ever".  Yep, a pineapple corer.  

During a recent trip to Mississippi, my cousin shared a recipe for roasted pineapple and I couldn't wait to get home and try it.  It was so simple I kept asking her to repeat it because I've seen recipes for roasted pineapple calling for brown sugar, cardamon, cinnamon and a bounty of other spices, but her recipe called for a single ingredient --> PINEAPPLE.  Yep, one pineapple and that's it.

Ingredients:  
    Pineapple

Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees
  2. Rinse pineapple
  3. Cut off the crown of the pineapple (the green leafy top)
  4. Place pineapple on a baking sheet and bake for about an hour
  5. Allow pineapple to cool completely and then peel the rind/eyes and slice  
Enjoy!!!

Life is a Beach Giveaway Hop

Spring is in full swing.  The birds are singin'.  The pollen is falling and temps are FINALLY warming up.  So what better time time to start planning our Summer getaways. This year - as always - we are beach bound.  It's one of our fave places to visit given we only get to the beach once or twice a year.   Last year's visit to Cozumel was one for the record books. We stopped by this little restaurant and dined on grilled shrimp in a cabana right on the beach.   'Ohana also has a line of tequilas in flavors I had never seen before.  Tropical flavors such as coconut, mango and pina colada.  Hubby and I tried the 'Ohana peanut butter tequila.  The owner said folks either love it or hate it... we LOVED it!!! As I was sipping all I could think of was how good this peanut butter tequila would taste as a baste on my tequila wings.  It would be like a tequila satay wings type dish. * * * G I V E A W A Y * * * One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will r

Jeepers! It's January Hop

Happy New Year! What better way to kick off the new year than with a giveaway! I am so excited to join The Mommy Island, The Kids Did It and 90+ other fab blogs in the first big giveaway hop of 2018! Here’s your chance to start the new year off with a win. One lucky Three Boys and an Old Lady blog reader will receive a $15 Walmart eGift card. $10 may not seem like a lot but it’s enough to stock up on some last minute Christmas clearance gifts. Trust me. I bought a 6’ Christmas tree WITH lights, 2 animal massagers, 3 Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser, Christmas cards and wrapping paper less than $20 during an after Christmas Walmart shopping trip. I was searching for some cough syrup when my friend’s kid spotted the Jelly Belly BeanBoozled Jelly Beans Mystery Bean Dispenser on sale for 50 cents. What a steal! The regular price is $10 so to find them on sale for 50 cents was a deal. We cleared the shelves. A few rows down we spotted some anima
