Showers, t’storms, snow and temps from the 70s to the 20s…all coming March 19!

By Andy McCray,

2025-03-18

Mother nature sure throws us some curveballs during the spring! Especially in the month of March it seems.

Wednesday will be a wild weather day with showers and a few isolated t’storms during the first half of the day. Then it dries out temporarily as a dry slot gets pulled into this big storm.

But the wild weather doesn’t stop there! As colder air gets pulled in on the backside of the storm, temps fall from around 70° to the upper 20s by Thursday morning.

And with a secondary surge of moisture, we’ll see up to an inch of snow later Wednesday night!

It could be worse though – severe storms are possible near Chicago while a Blizzard Warning is in effect on the other side of Iowa!

Two varieties of Grace canned chicken sausages sold in five states are the subject of a federal public health alert -- and shoppers are being urged to check their pantries. The USDA's Food Safety and Inspection Service issued the alert on October 6 after discovering that the products were illegally imported from Jamaica, which is not eligible to export meat or poultry products to the United States.

That Yellow on Your Broccoli Isn’t Just a Color Change and Here’s Why It's Important

Broccoli is one of those vegetables I used to grab without giving it much thought. If the bunch looked mostly green and the stalks seemed fine, into the cart it went. But there’s one little detail worth checking before you buy it, and it only takes a few seconds to spot.

This Herb Was Used for Anxiety Attacks Before Xanax Existed

Passionflower has been used as a folk remedy for anxiety for generations, long before Xanax or other prescription options existed. What's interesting is that it's been studied directly against a prescription anti-anxiety medication, with some promising results. I keep it on hand for days when anxiety feels like it's creeping up. 😊

I Remember These Disappearing Before the Real Food Came Out

Some party foods don’t need fancy bread, tiny skewers, or a complicated presentation to empty the tray. Ritz Party Sandwiches have that old-school snack-table magic: buttery, crisp crackers turned into little savory sandwiches that are just the right size to grab while walking past. They’re crunchy, rich, salty, and dangerously easy to eat because one never feels like enough to count. Put out a plate before everyone arrives and you may find yourself “testing” several before the doorbell even rings. There’s a reason simple little appetizers like this survived so many family parties.

Grandma Didn’t Need 15 Ingredients to Make a Pot of Potato Soup Taste Good

There’s something almost suspicious about a soup this comforting coming from only five ingredients, but that’s exactly how old kitchen recipes earned their place. Grandma’s potato soup wasn’t built around specialty cheese, expensive toppings, or a cart full of groceries. It was about tender potatoes simmered until soft, a creamy broth, simple seasoning, and that warm, velvety texture that made a bowl feel like a full meal. The potatoes do most of the work, thickening the soup naturally and giving every spoonful that familiar stick-to-your-ribs comfort. It’s the kind of recipe that makes the kitchen smell like somebody has been cooking all afternoon, even though the ingredient list is shorter than most coffee orders.

The frosting you'll want on every cake this holiday season

If you're going to spend the holidays baking, you might as well have one frosting recipe you can count on for everything. This one comes together with just four ingredients and five minutes of mixing, no candy thermometer, no cooking on the stove. It's rich, tangy, and holds its shape well enough to pipe onto cupcakes or spread thick over a layer cake.

I Was Skeptical Until I Cut the First Slice

Chicken meatloaf sounds like the sensible choice right up until garlic and Parmesan get involved. Then things change fast. This version bakes into a juicy, savory loaf with a golden exterior and plenty of cheesy, garlicky flavor running through every slice. It has the comfort of the meatloaf you grew up with, but without feeling like you’ve eaten the same dinner a hundred times. And that first warm slice? That’s the moment the ground chicken starts making a lot more sense.

This Sandwich Actually Gets Better While You Wait

Most sandwiches punish you for making them too early. This Italian sandwich has other plans. Give those layers of savory deli meats, cheese, tangy toppings, and bold Italian flavors some time together and everything starts settling into the bread in the best possible way. Each slice gets a little salty, a little tangy, a little rich, with enough texture to keep you coming back for another piece. It’s the rare party food where making it ahead isn’t a compromise—it may be the reason the sandwich tastes so good when everyone finally arrives.

The Little Lemon Cakes That Somehow Disappear Faster Than Cupcakes

There’s something dangerous about a dessert small enough to eat in two bites. These lemon drop cakes are soft, moist, and packed with bright citrus flavor, with just enough sweetness to keep you reaching for another before you’ve officially decided you’re having seconds. Instead of a big slice of cake and a fork, you get tender little bites with that sunny lemon flavor running through them—the kind of treat that looks innocent piled on a serving plate until you notice half the batch has vanished. They’re light enough for coffee or brunch but sweet enough to hold their own on a dessert table.

The One Crispy Apple I'm Choosing Over Honeycrisp Right Now

Learn about an apple variety that is super crisp and firm that I am getting at apple orchards over Honeycrisp this month. It took a long time from when the Crimson Crisp apple was first bred until it was available to be grown commercially. It was first developed in the 1970s by the PRI (Purdue, Rutgers, and Illnois) co-operative. It wasn't until 2006 that the apple was released for growers. That is a long time in the development process. You don't get rich quick by developing a new apple variety!

The Cookie Jar Favorite That Deserves a Comeback

Butterscotch used to show up everywhere—pudding cups, hard candies, church-supper desserts, and cookie tins—and these soft chewies are a good reminder of why. They bake up with tender centers, lightly golden edges, and pockets of butterscotch chips that turn melty and almost caramel-like while they’re warm. That deep brown-sugar flavor makes them taste a little more old-fashioned than the usual chocolate chip cookie, in the best possible way. Pour a glass of milk or make some coffee and suddenly you’ve got the kind of simple homemade treat that feels like it could have come straight from a well-used family recipe box.

The Cookie I’d Still Pick Over Anything From a Fancy Bakery

Peanut butter cookies never needed frosting, fillings, or a dozen trendy ingredients to earn a place on the cookie plate. Give me the old-fashioned kind with those familiar fork marks across the top, crisp golden edges, and a soft center that still has a little chew when you break one open. The peanut butter does all the work, filling the kitchen with that warm, nutty smell before the pan even leaves the oven. They’re simple in exactly the right way—the kind of cookie that brings back school lunches, after-school snacks, and the old cookie jar that somehow never stayed full for long.
