That’s it. I’m done. No more pretending to be something I’m not. I’ve denied it, I’ve fought it, I’ve tried to change it. Nothing. No change. I’m just going to have to live with it. Learn to be awesome in spite of myself. Maybe confession will be good for the soul. Okay, here goes…as much as…
Blueberry Sweet Rolls with Lemon Glaze
This has got to be one of the sweetest ways to wake up. Not that these Blueberry Sweet Rolls are all that sweet, it’s just a beautiful thing to wake up to on a Saturday morning. They also make a wonderful gift. From teacher gifts at Christmas, to welcoming a new neighbor, to blessing a…
Thick & Fluffy Whole Wheat Waffles
Today it’s my pleasure to share with you my favorite Whole Wheat Waffle recipe. We just had these for breakfast today and I thought it would only be fair to share! I woke up to the sound of a coughing little boy. I soon found a coughing little boy snuggled beside me in my…
Whole Wheat Blueberry Muffins
The life of a food blogger can get cruel sometimes. You may be jealous of me right now, thinking that I’m eating these wonderful whole-wheat blueberry muffins for breakfast. But you’d be wrong. Nope. No muffins today. Because, in order to have this post ready for you I made these muffins a few weeks…
Simple Cornbread Dressing
This is a picture of a personal triumph. I finally made cornbread dressing! I mean I finally made cornbread dressing that didn’t go in the trash can. For years I hopelessly tried to make a dressing that is at least “close enough” to my mother-in-law’s cornbread dressing. She grew up in Alabama, where they make…
Pumpkin Donuts
It’s another one of my childhood memories, coming to you in the form of a recipe. If you love donuts and even if you don’t love pumpkin, you’ll love these pumpkin donuts! I choose to allow myself to believe that these delicious treats are healthy (because they have a vegetable… or, um… is pumpkin actually a…
Strawberry-Lemon Whole Wheat Muffins
This is one of my favorite muffins. It started with my grandmother’s recipe for blueberry muffins, which I always loved as a child. But it wasn’t the healthiest breakfast; white flour, vegetable oil, white sugar, yikes! So, I altered it a bit, and now I make good old fashioned (but healthier) blueberry as well as…
Braided Danish Ring
This is such a beautiful and wonderful tasting bread, I just had to share it with you, even though I did nothing to create/enhance/ tweak/ or otherwise add value to the recipe. (Which is also why I decided not to actually publish the recipe, but I’ll give you the link.) OK, I did change the…
Cinnamon Sticks
Yes. They’re every bit as yummy and crunchy and fun as they look. No, they aren’t nearly as difficult to make as something this good should be. Yes, I ate this whole cup- full myself. This is a fun little snack to make when the hours between lunch and dinner are a few too many…
Freezer-Friendly Pizza Dough
Friday night is usually pizza night at our house. I always like to serve “fun food” on Friday night, and pizza is actually the easiest fun food I know how to make. Hands-on time is about 10 minutes, and what comes out of my oven tastes like we paid $40.00 for it. (I don’t know…
