Let it be known (not that it was a secret before), I like peanut butter and chocolate together. I have seen so many different versions of peanut butter and chocolate brownies floating around. Some have peanut butter cups, some have just peanut butter, others have peanut butter chips or other candy. Well I had to…
This summer I saw a few different Fool recipes floating around, and all of the claimed that Fool is a traditional English dessert. My Grandma was born and raised in England, my Dad was born in England, and he still has lots of family there. So I was shocked I had never heard of this…
Fresh Salsa Recipe – the best fresh tomato salsa with just a handful of ingredients. So easy to make it will be on repeat with all those tomatoes from the garden!
Here is another bread that I made using the Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day book. I don’t really know what Fougasse means, but it looked neat with the cut outs, and my husband loves red peppers, so I decided to give it a go. Being that I can’t stand bell peppers, I didn’t…
A friend of mine let me borrow her Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day book. This book is great! Who doesn’t love fresh baked bread? I mean really, what isn’t to love? It is pretty much perfect. The recipes in this book are really easy. You start with a base recipe. You spend about…

Chocolate and Peanut Butter is obviously a classic combination. Usually you see it in desserts, but why not have it for breakfast? I saw this recipe over at The Kitchenarian for her Muffin Monday series. I knew I had to make them. Muffins are always a hit here, chocolate and peanut butter is always a…
Until recently I didn’t think that I liked Blackberries. Not sure how I came to this conclusion, but I have been going off of it for years. Then they were in a fruit salad recently, and I was feeling adventurous and thought what the heck. I live on the edge, don’t I? Well, I liked…
My son is obsessed with cheese crackers. I mean obsessed. He could probably live on Goldfish, Cheese Nips, Whales….all of them! So when I saw Katrina make Homemade Cheese Nips, I was in awe! I knew I had to do it. But I don’t have the cute pastry cutter she has, so I had to…

I interrupt my strawberry series to bring you Macarons. Hopefully you will find them equally delicious! Before I started blogging, I had never heard of a French Macaron. Then I saw them everywhere, and everyone made them look so pretty, but they had a reputation of being so technically difficult. I was scared to…

Happy Sunday morning to everyone! Hope your weekend is going well, and you have a great start to the week! It has been rainy all weekend here, so we haven’t gotten to do much. I took my 6 year old to see the movie Hop yesterday, very cute! Today….organizing a closet. I know, you are…
Today marks the day I have had my blog for a month!!! Wow, have I learned a lot in a month. And boy, do I still have a lot to learn! I am choosing to live in denial right now that blogger went down yesterday, and my post from yesterday is just lost in cyber…
In case you missed it, Cinco De Mayo was yesterday! In honor of this holiday I decided to try a recipe that caught my eye in Shape magazine. I love all things Mexican – chips and salsa, guacamole, enchiladas, tacos, the rice, fajitas….pretty much all of it. I think I could eat it everyday,…
