Seasonal Meal Planning: Spring Menu

April 5, 2015 By Beth Cranford Leave a Comment

It’s so good to be back here with you again. Did you notice I’ve been rather scarce lately? I didn’t plan it that way, really. As you know, we’ve been packing and getting ready to move. I thought I had made it to a point of being able to leave the packing for a while…

Smooth & Creamy Peanut Butter Pie

February 21, 2015 By Beth Cranford 10 Comments

This is a smooth and creamy peanut butter pie that is made with real whipped cream (instead of fake "cream-like" substances).Takes a few minutes to make.

Yes, I have a thing against Cool Whip. Yes, this pie actually has a crust that my camera somehow missed. No… I didn’t save you a piece. I’m sorry. It was too good. Even my family didn’t get much of it. It was pretty amazing. The first thing I love about this pie is that,…

Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake Bars

February 6, 2015 By Beth Cranford 1 Comment

When a craving for cheesecake strikes, there isn't much you can do but honor it. These bars have all the texture and flavor of traditional cheesecake but are much easier to make.

Cheesecake is one of my favorite desserts, but I don’t actually eat it very often. It’s expensive to buy and not the easiest thing to make. For the most part, I prefer my cheesecake plain, or maybe with a few strawberries. When you go adding a bunch of other stuff (like caramel, yuck) you lose…
