  • Custer County Candy Company

    On our trip through South Dakota, we stumbled across an adorable old fashioned candy store. The Custer County Candy Company is located in Custer just a 15 minuted drive from Wind Cave National Park. It’s right off the main drag, tucked back just a little ways off the street. If you see a huge metal… [Continue Reading]

  • Explore Bourbon Country

  • Crazy Horse

    South Dakota is steeped in history, it’s one of the main reasons I chose to take the kids here for MEA break. After visiting Mount Rushmore  we headed over to Crazy Horse. It’s only about a 15-20 minute drive. Crazy Horse is a privately funded memorial surviving on donations from the public. It’s a shame there is… [Continue Reading]

Quick and Simple Hobo Meals

What is a Hobo meal? Well, it's a variety of veggies, hamburger, spices and butter wrapped up in tinfoil and either baked or grilled. Hobo meals are quick and simple to make. These are even great for camping! Hobo's are actually one of my favorite dishes to make because each packet can be customized. For example, if someone has a dietary restriction you can customize their packet to fit the requirements.  In our house we like a pretty simple Hobo packet. We typically stick with baby red ...

Quick Back to School Dinners

Kids everywhere are heading back to school! Parent's are rejoicing and crying at the same time. My darling daughter, Peyton, started kindergarten last week. It's an exciting but crazy time in our house. I have been spoiled with dropping my daughter off at daycare for the last 3 years. They fed her breakfast, lunch, snack and taught her new skills all while having a blast. Well, now I have to make breakfast, send a snack, plan out lunch AND get her to school on time looking fab. That's a big ...

Spice Up Any Meal with Great American Spice Co

I am always looking for ways to bring a fun, healthy, flavorful meal to the dinner table. Great American Spice Company does a fantastic job at carrying a wide selection of spices for any dish.  I spent a fair amount of time browsing the selection of spices and trying to settle on some I wanted to try out. It was a hard decision! There are so many to choose from. But I finally settled on The Great American Spice Co. Chicago Steak Seasoning, Angus Steak Seasoning, Prime Steak Seasoning and ...

Our Disappearing Act

Wow! It sure has been quiet these past few weeks at Peyton's Penny Pinching Momma! There used to be daily postings of reviews and funny life stories at least 3 times a week and then it went to pretty much nothing. I know this is how many of my readers have felt over the past month. And I am truly sorry to have left so abruptly. But the truth is I have been in way, way over my head these past few months with a remodel project.  At the end of May we started to remodel our current home to ...
