Peachy Keen Granola Bars
Patiently waiting for spring here. I am tired of the record lows. I am tired of the snow, sleet, and ice in March. I am ready for warm temperatures, working in the yard and garden, and harvesting our produce. As I was experiencing another snow day earlier this month (and don’t get me wrong, I…
Banana Pancakes with Dried Tart Cherries
Lately, there have been no smoothies, no home-cooked dinners…it’s been pretty busy (and food-boring) around here. Luckily, we didn’t have any weekend activities until 1:30 and 6:00 on Saturday. Great. I could at least get a hearty, home-cooked breakfast on the table. (And yes, dear readers, I even slept in until 8:00.) Because…
Food ‘n Flix Round-Up: The Breakfast Club
Yes, I know that The Breakfast Club wasn’t chock full of foodie references. Yes, I know that besides the title itself and the lunch scene, there is not a whole lot of food in this film. But, dontcha know I think it was a worthy film for Food ‘n Flix this month. (It is a classic and…
“Waffled” Breakfast Club Sandwich

Lemon Pancakes with Dark Sweet Cherries
During the winter brrr, what’s better for breakfast than a little citrus flavor? I found the original recipe in Joy of Cooking after finding some near dead and departed lemons on the cabinet last summer. This recipe was delicious and made super thick, delicious pancakes. I wanted to tweak the recipe a bit and…
Breakfast Bread Pudding
I love me some bread pudding, yet I never make it. You can be assured that if it is on the menu when we dine out, I will order it. Chocolate bread pudding, pumpkin bread pudding, traditional Southern bread pudding with whiskey sauce. It matters not. When I saw this recipe in our local paper…
Bread Machine Raisin Bread
There was a time when the adults in the family still gave and received purchased gifts. This was before we decided we had too much STUFF and as gifts began to collect dust or take up storage and attic spaces. The presents typically were a bit pricey and extravagant as well and you can…
Gingerbread Granola
Holiday spices in a granola that’s good enough to gift.
Whole Wheat Pumpkin Muffins (and a weird squash)
Have you ever been over to M.J.’s Kitchen? If not, you must stumbled over there as soon as you are able. Last January, M.J. posted about an unusual squash with an unusual name: Cushaw Pumpkin. These things do not look like pumpkins at all. Besides the weird name, they were…
