As a little girl, my mother often made fruit cobblers. I especially remember her making them from peaches, cherries, and blackberries. My dad had a major sweet tooth and she tried to keep something baked for him most of the time! Fruit pies and desserts go way back in my family. My grandfather on …
Love chai? Chocolate? (Who doesn’t?) Here we go: my favorite breakfast smoothie. A supremely unique flavor, kind of chocolatey and fruity and spicy all at once in a way that completely works. Justin was also a big fan. Incidentally, it’s perfect to bring along to those 4 hour summer classes I’m currently taking… …
It is revolutionary! It is scrumptious! It is SO easy!!! Who would ever think that you could make ice cream at home with so few ingredients and under 10 minutes of prep time! Well, I’m here to show you that you can. Not only can you do it, but you can come up with at …
You know the old saying about making lemons out of lemonade? Well, this dessert ended up being the product of my “lemon” of a pound cake. I decided to try a new pound cake recipe. I hadn’t made one for years, so I went to baking! The only problem was that I just grabbed …
I want to like celery. I really do. I want to be able to just take an entire raw stalk of celery and eat it without a gag reflex and think that it was good, because it is, after all, so good for you! I can’t do it. Not a plain, raw stringy stalk anyway. …
This salad is SO good! It’s an especially good recipe this time of the year when spinach and strawberries are in (or nearly in) season. When you can’t get great strawberries, or in the winter when I think they’re too expensive, I substitute dried cranberries. I love those in this salad, too. …
Breakfast casseroles are my weakness. I’ve never met one that I didn’t like, and this new recipe is no exception. A bit sweeter than most, this recipe is unique in that it contains apples. If you like savory/sweet combinations, this is probably one that you will enjoy. For the bread, I made my own honey …
One thing I enjoy about working part time at the school of preaching library is that I always have happy taste testers! I have about 20 or so grateful men who like to eat whatever I bring. I have baked these blueberry muffins several times for the students. By the end of the first morning …
We’re just getting back to school this week after a wonderful, somewhat lazy spring break. And I really do mean wonderful, as in daytime hikes, late night movies, and ice cream. Yes, we attempted our first homemade ice cream. Now, I like ice cream (who wouldn’t?), but Justin LOVES it. So we were pretty excited …
There is a principle in psychology that says the more you work for, anticipate, or wait for something, the better you will enjoy it in the end, right? Let me tell you something about me. I always have a draft open in my email where I keep track of what groceries we need, and then …
