I don’t know how I feel about Halloween, honestly. I have a love hate relationship with Halloween. I loved getting tons of candy as a kid, but I didn’t really like wearing sweat pants under my ballerina costume because in Rexburg, Idaho, it snows every Halloween. I love seeing little kids all dressed up, but…
Breakfast
Pumpkin Pasties
“Anything from the trolley? Anything from the trolley?” “Two pumpkin pasties, please.” Do you remember that part in Harry Potter? When Cho orders pumpkin pasties? I have always wanted to try these, and after making them I can see why Cho didn’t just get one! My husband, who lived in England for two years, says…
Applesauce Muffins
When I think of muffins, I think of my two younger brothers. I first think of Joe who loves any kind of breakfast food. He makes himself German pancakes for lunch, has a “cereal snack” three times a day, and he can eat more muffins than anyone I know. He is 15, 6’3” or 4”, …
Cream Cheese and Chive Biscuits
I am usually pretty good at cooking. I can usually get something to taste pretty yummy. However, there is one type of food that I have messed up more than any other food: Biscuits. I don’t know why, either. I have made so many yucky biscuits, and I don’t really know what I do wrong….
December’s Daring Cook: Eggs Benedict and How to Poach and Egg
I am usually not a big fan of eggs. I mean they are fine in cookies and stuff, but for breakfast? They make me queasy. I can stomach scrambled eggs every once in a while and hard boiled eggs on Easter. For me, omelets are the worst. I feel nauseas at the thought of…
Pumpkin Cream Cheese Muffins
I am not ready to give up Pumpkin season quite yet. Expect pumpkin recipes through November and maybe even into December! I love pumpkin! My mom even used to call me Pumpkin when I was little! These beauties filled with a yummy cream cheese filling and if you like pumpkin, you wont be disappointed. I…
Pumpkin Scones
I LOVE PUMPKIN!!! I absolutely love cooking with pumpkin. I love it in this, this, and this. I have many more pumpkin recipes coming your way this fall. This recipe is supposedly a replica of Starbuck’s pumpkin scone. I would buy one of these! It is the perfect breakfast for a fall Saturday morning. I…
Muffin of the Week: Almond Poppy Seed Muffin
I had a bunch of ideas for the muffin of the week. First I thought about making some kind of cornbread savory muffin, but then I realized that I want to save that one for when I make chili next week. Then I decided to make peanut butter and jelly muffins and realized I am…
Country Crunch Pancakes
These pancakes were awesome! They were so moist and hearty. The best part is the crunchy topping that makes kind of a sweet, toasty crust. And they have whole wheat flour and oatmeal to make them a bit more healthy. I am also excited to share my new discovery. Powdered buttermilk! I don’t know…
Muffin of the Week: Peach Cobbler Muffin
By the time you read this post, I will be on vacation! We are going home for family reunions and to see my brother who has a short leave from the army. In my excitement to leave and the rush to get everything done before we make that 10 hour drive, I must have done…
