When we were kids if we wanted a sweet treat we had to bake it. If you wanted cookies, cake or pie it was up to you to make it. By the time I was 12 or 13 I had several Betty Crocker recipes committed to memory. We VERY rarely used cake or brownie mixes….

Caramel Pecan Monkey Bread
I can’t even turn on the news anymore. I am limiting my time on Facebook. I love social media but it is too dark and depressing lately. The little boy in Walt Disney World, which is my favorite place in the world, killed by an alligator. The 49 people killed and 53 injured in the…
Fighting the Breakfast Rush – Banana Muffins
Today my daughter turns 16! Sixteen, it seems impossible. Everyone told me, “Enjoy it all time will fly past you and before you know it they are grown.” I am thanking God that I have enjoyed each and every moment. Oh, they weren’t always easy moments but from the beginning when she was very sick and…
Rainbow Waffles
My daughter had her friends over the other night for a sleepover. My daughter loves rainbows, sparkles and anything “pretty.” When she started talking about having the girls over I remembered the Duff Goldman rainbow cupcakes I made for a party year. (click for link to original post) I thought I could use a similar…
Buttery Coffee Cake
Looking for something to brighten up your weekday breakfasts or Sunday brunch? For the most post we are not big breakfast eaters. Once in a while we will do a big breakfast on the weekend but during the week my son is really the only person that eats breakfast. Usually it is cereal or oatmeal….
Cheesy Egg and Hashbrown Casserole
Next to my slow cooker, casseroles are one of my favorite was to get dinner made simply and quickly. Many casseroles can be frozen or made the morning you wish to serve them. Cover and refrigerate until you arrive home and then just pop them in the oven! I love that the work is done…
The Perfect Gift – Happy Valentine’s Day!
, This was my Valentine’s Day gift. No, not this year, but a recreation from our first Valentine’s Day together. We had only been dating for about a month and a half when Valentine’s Day rolled around. I didn’t want to celebrate Valentine’s Day and made that very clear. I wasn’t sure what I…
Hollywood & Vine Character Breakfast
First of all let me set the record straight. Yes, we are Disney fans but we are not a breakfast family. Brunch sure, love it. But, breakfast means we have to get up and actually leave the hotel room early (or as in before 9 am). But, we have learned on the day we leave…
Waffle Bar: A Simple Fun Breakfast for Company or Holidays
Just before Christmas my daughter had a few friends over for a sleepover. For dinner we did a taco bar and for breakfast we made a waffle bar. It made it so much easier to feed several people with very different food preferences a meal that they would like by offering them choices without making…
Holiday Breakfast Casserole
This is our traditional Christmas breakfast. I am not sure what we are doing this year. My son is already upset by the holiday changes we are making this year so I will probably still need to keep this dish. Hope you enjoy! Holiday Breakfast Casserole
Amish Friendship Bread – no starter needed
Source: Amish Friendship Bread – no starter needed Taking a break from baking today and sharing one of my children’s favorite treats for breakfast. Simple and tasty!
Old Fashioned Banana Bread
Growing up we had a few cookbooks. One which I remember clearly to this day is the 1972 Betty Crocker’s Cookbook. This is the cookbook that I learned to bake from. If we wanted cakes or cookies growing up we baked them from scratch. Whenever I mention this cookbook everyone says, “We had that too!”…
