I love easy recipes, and when it's time to make something to take to a party or tailgate, this is my go-to recipe. My kitchen stays neat preparing it, and there's not much to do. One thing I can promise is that it will be devoured. Give it a try, and let me know what you think! NANCY’S FAV ONE DISH MAC & CHEESE · 2 (8 ounce) blocks of cheese o I usually pick one hard cheese like sharp cheddar, and one softer cheese like gouda or Monterey Jack. Go wild! It always turns out. · 2 cups uncooked big elbow macaroni · 1 ½ cups half-and-half · salt and ground black pepper to taste · ¼ cup shredded Cheddar cheese · ¼ cup shredded mozzarella cheese · ½ cup milk (or just enough to loosen up the mixture to get it creamy) Preheat the oven to 350F Cube the blocks of cheese and place in the center of an ungreased, 9-inch square baking dish. Pour pasta into the dish around the cheese blocks. Pour half-and-half directly on top of the pasta and stir until coated. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, then top with shredded cheeses. Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes. Pull the dish out of the oven, stir it around then add a bit of milk to loosen it up enough that it’s well combined. It might look ready to eat now, but don’t. Return to the oven and cook until golden and bubbly, about 25 minutes more. Now, it’s time to enjoy!

This is something I feel very strongly about. I've accepted it as a purpose in my life. I lost my husband in 2014 to a short battle with cancer. Until then I hadn't experienced much personal loss in my life. I'd been fortunate, but no one will escape grief in their lifetime. Yet, even with all the knowledge and wisdom of those around us who've suffered great loss...grief remains one of the most difficult things we have to handle. From my experience came this novel of hope, THE SHELL COLLECTOR. It's my goal to help those who are going through or have grieved to find this book comforting and a reminder of all those little things that matter. For those yet to experience that type of loss, I hope this work of fiction nestles in their heart and in the back of their minds and when they need it ... this story will provide a roadmap to comfort and hope to help them navigate the journey more gracefully. The Shell Collector was inspired by my loss and a true-story of a friend of our family who once found shells with scriptures written in them on the beach. It's so very special to me. If you know someone that could use this kind of hope, please share it with them. It's an enjoyable heartfelt small town read. Yes, their is grief, but more importantly there is friendship, hope and trust. You can read the first chapter right now for free at https://lnkd.in/gSmuzFS but if you're in the midst of this journey I direct you to the devotional I wrote for Bible.com YouVersion first. Navigating Grief to Hope and Happiness at https://lnkd.in/eqSSWpqs It's FREE and I pray it will soothe your heart as you lean in and embrace your new future. With love, Nancy #love#author#hope#life#inspiration#grief#faith#family#friendship

I'm so excited it's finally release day for THE SHELL COLLECTOR. This book is so special to me, and I can't wait for you to read it. Inspired by a story I heard years ago, it has brewed in my heart for quite some time. In this story mysterious inscribed shells are showing up in Whelks Island and inspiring hope and joy to those who need it most. My favorite shell quote in the book is "Interrupt Worry With Gratitude". One afternoon tooling around Pinterest as I'm known to do while procrastinating some stunning handpainted shells caught my eye. I took that idea and married it with some of my favorite quotes from the book to create some special gifts for some of the special people who endorsed the book and have helped me on this journey. It takes only a small effort, usually not much money, to pass along a bit of happiness. I hope you find a special project and spread some joy today too. Then snuggle up with The Shell Collector and take a journey to Whelks Island. Available now in paperback - digital - audio.
