Snowman Cupcakes

A few years ago, I made cupcakes with snowman faces for the kids at the family Christmas dinner at our Mom’s. They are so cute, and they look like they would take more time to decorate than they actually do. And when it comes to the kids, it’s always great to find cute cupcake decorating […]

Buckeye Bites

Are you one who loves the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, as in a Reese cup? Then buckeyes will likely be right up your alley. They’re a bit different, perhaps a bit sweeter and less salty, but the idea is similar.   The original buckeyes are chocolate covered with a round shape. A few […]

Open-Face Turkey & Cranberry Sandwich with Orange-Pecan Marmalade Cream Cheese

A few weeks ago, we posted our version of an open-face specialty sandwich from the menu of a favorite local restaurant. Our Turkey Cranberry Sandwich with Orange-Pecan Marmalade Cream Cheese recipe is inspired from another selection on the menu of that same little restaurant, and it is seriously delicious.   The restaurant is part of […]

Easy Blueberry Breakfast Scones

There is nothing like a made-from-scratch baked good made from an old family recipe. But, maybe not this time! This is for those times when quick and easy, yet delicious, is priority. And luckily sometimes you do find a box mix that certainly rivals a scratch recipe.   This isn’t about one box mix or […]

Cinnamon Glazed Pumpkin Muffin & an Apple Butter Cream Cheese Center

That’s a long title for a post! But that pretty much describes these moist pumpkin muffins with a creamy sweet center, and that cinnamon glaze is yummy all by itself. Pumpkin is an iconic food for fall, and it’s pretty apparent that most everyone loves pumpkin!     Pumpkin can be layered with other flavors […]

Homemade Chicken Vegetable Soup with Homemade-Style Noodles

A steaming bowl of homemade chicken soup with egg noodles, accompanied by some warm crusty bread makes for a pretty nice dinner this time of year when the weather starts to get a bit cold. Even though this soup is homemade, this recipe can come together in just about an hour to an hour and […]

Lightly Salted Caramel Brownies

Have you tried any of the salted caramel sweets yet? We found that just the right amount of salt is important to creating a delicious confectionery treat.   For this dessert we used a recipe that one of us found in the newspaper from Morton salt. Having never made anything using the salted caramel flavor, […]

Pumpkin Bread – Layered with Cinnamon Cream Cheese Frosting

This pumpkin bread recipe has been in the family for many years. Truth be told, we aren’t sure of its origin. Over the years we all have made it with chopped pecans or walnuts, raisins or currants, and even plain. You just can’t beat a delicious moist slice of it with a cup of hot […]
