We love granola around here! It’s such a good and wholesome snack, handful after handful, with CrUnCh! (Oh, how I love crunch.) It’s really a great way to start your day off right too, in the morning! Throw some in a bowl with a few splashes of cold milk, or load it on top of a serving of yogurt!
Unfortunately, it’s next to impossible to find ‘peanut-safe’ granola at the … Read More
These adorable Ladybug Cookies I came up with, come right in time for Valentine’s Day, and I promise you, they couldn’t be easier to make! (There’s not even baking involved!) I think you are going to love what they are made with, too! (You know…besides LOVE.) I’m talking ingredients. These cookies are also a sweet idea for a little girl’s birthday party, or to send in with your … Read More
The rest of my family loves anything made with cranberries. But loving these muffins came as a big surprise to me, the first time my daughter made them. Reason being, I personally have never cared much for cranberry bread of any kind. I figured, it was cranberries, period, that I didn’t like. And between you and me, that felt a little wrong, and perhaps a bit of info … Read More
Many delightful plans come to mind, with the first inkling of Autumn in the air, and this year has been no different for us. Baking is one of them, and at the top of that list, is always Apple Crisp! (With a scoop or 2 of vanilla ice cream, please!)
I admit, we are not above some Apple Crisp topping-help from a box. We’ve done that, and enjoy it! But … Read More
Josh’s Double Chocolate Biscotti

There are times that the things we creatively do as a family, or the ideas we have, happen ON a holiday or special calendar day. So naturally they do not get blogged until after the fact. Since we like our readers to have the opportunity to take our ideas and find creative inspiration from them, or flat out borrow the ideas, I like to try and share (or re-share) those … Read More
Not much says a down-home-cooked meal, like a homemade Chicken Pot Pie! Growing up, my mom always bought those little individual frozen pot pies, in either chicken or beef. And guess what? I loved them! She was not all that into cooking, as I’ve said, so I don’t think I had very discerning taste as a kid.
When I grew up and started my own family, those little frozen … Read More
Once upon a time, my ‘Fine Bread Maker’, made all of his bread and pizza dough by hand.
But now we have THE MACHINE….
(…thanks to the huge heart, of a great friend….you may have heard that story I love to tell…).
The recipes are the same as they always were. They are just a whole lot easier, and a lot less messy now! The difference between the bread … Read More
My kids and I were trying to come up with some themed food for New Year’s Eve, and {JM} came up with this great idea, right off the bat: Cookies that are designed like clocks! (Oh, to have his quick, 8 year old brain!)
Right away I started trying to figure the details, and decided to start with homemade Gingersnap Cookies. To design them, we went with a white icing … Read More
The other day, I got the surprise-of-my-life. The kind that left me in a daze for the rest of the day. And into the next day. OK, seriously……I’m still kind of in a daze about it. I don’t even know where to start with this little story. I feel speechless, and yet, you and I both know this post will probably end up ridiculously long, once the words start … Read More
