I’m forever on the hunt for healthy things my toddler will eat. Whenever possible, I like to make things at home as opposed to buying them so I can control the quality of ingredients. The less additives, the better! Breakfast seems to be the most challenging meal for me be creative with. I’m a working […]
Let me tell you about my new favorite pancake recipe. They’re so flavorful and fluffy, plus there’s all kinds of good stuff in them – whole wheat flour, oats, flax seeds. There’s no oil, white flour, or sugar. Compared to plain white pancakes, these are faintly nutty, slightly sweet, slightly salty, and have just the […]
Many people love pumpkin recipes in the fall, but I prefer not to discriminate against pumpkin’s delicious offerings, opting to enjoy them any time. Sure, pumpkins themselves aren’t in season right now, but pumpkin puree is available year-round, and it’s not like I cook my own pumpkins for recipes anyway. So although it’s January, give […]
These. Are. Delicious. Sinfully delicious. And rich. And decadent. I first made these at Thanksgiving with my Mother in Law, but I didn’t have my camera so I didn’t blog it then. They were so good though – Tim’s sister even said it was the best thing she ever ate – that I knew I’d […]
It’s hard to believe Thanksgiving is less than two weeks away! Surely I’m not the only one who has started thinking about what I’m going to take to our family get-togethers.

Exciting news – our kitchen is done!…ish. 🙂 I mean, it’s definitely back in working order. We still have a few things to put away, the crown molding needs to go on top of the cabinets, the dishwasher has to be mounted to the cabinets, and I have to get a new curtain and put […]
When I’m looking for a healthy recipe, one of the first places I usually look is at Ellie Krieger’s recipes. I needed to make some muffins last week, and of course, I wanted them to be healthy. I found this recipe and gave it a try. The muffins turned out very delicious and the apple […]
I’ve been working at the granola bars again. This time, I went an entirely different route. The last three times I made them (until I got them right), I went the peanut butter, nut, chocolate route. And they were crispy and crunchy. And delicious. But as good as those were, I was itching to try […]
I saw this recipe on Pinterest a while back, and it just looked so delicious. Sometimes I need to cook breakfast for a crowd, like when we have family in town, so I am always keeping an eye out for new breakfast recipes. You see a lot of breakfast casseroles that have eggs, meat, and […]
