What do you do when you have an excess of of bananas because they were 25 cents a pound and you bought way to many? Make banana ice cream, banana muffins, and of course some banana bread! I have delicious banana ice cream in my freezer tempting me and I froze some banana muffins made…

A Month of Pie: Fruit and Cream Frozen Cheesecake
I saved this pie for last because it is pretty much the easiest pie in world to make. If you want just one more pie in your Thanksgiving spread, but you don’t have the time or energy to make one, try this pie. You do need at least enough time to freeze the pie, so…
A Month of Pie: Blackberry Mango Pie
I am dedicating this pie to my little niece Eleni. Her mom, my sister in law, told me that her kids have loved seeing all the different pies on my blog this month. I asked her if her kids had any recommendations for pie flavors. Jacob got his pumpkin pie a couple posts back. Lyd,…
A Month of Pie: Candy Apple Pie
I have a weakness for candy apples. I don’t think I ever had one as a kid. I’m not sure why, but I just never had one until after I was married and decided to make my own. When I took that first bite, I think I fell in love. Caramel and apples are meant…
A Month of Pie: Lime-Coconut Pie with Macadamia-Coconut Crust
Today’s pie is my favorite pie to date. It reminds me of my Bath and Body Works Coconut Lime Verbena body lotion that I used to wear in high school. I used to wear it because my high school crush (now my hubby) loved that scent, so of course he loved this pie. It is…
A Month of Pies: Peaches and Dream Pie
Before I talk about today’s pie, we need to have a chat. If you read my first pie post of the month within a couple days of it being posted, you probably noticed that it said something like “I’m going to make a pie every day until Thanksgiving! Hooray!” Well, if you look at it…
A Month of Pie: Freeform Apple Pie
My husband had a brilliant idea for my blog. A different pie recipe for every day of November leading up to Thanksgiving. I am pretty sure he just wanted some pie. And baby, you’re gonna get it. Probably more than you will ever want. I decided to take on the challenge. However, it’s not realistic…
Layered Banana Cake
A few weeks ago, my husband and I were both doing our own thing in the same room. I think I was actually just sitting there pondering and he was putting away dishes or something productive. I was deep in thought and after quite awhile of silence, I loudly announced, “I want to make a…
Tres Leches Cake
So you all probably saw my last post announcing the coming of a little one into my family this February. I am super excited and happy, but the fatigue and food aversions have really taken a toll on my blog. I just haven’t been in the kitchen as much lately. Not to mention I did…
Coconut Mango Sticky Rice Popsicles
I’m back from my little vacation from blogging. I went a little while without posting. I have had some very time consuming things come up in my life recently and I just haven’t had the energy to make time to blog. I don’t know about you and where you live, but here in Columbus we…
