I am a dessert freak! I wish I didn’t have the sweet tooth that I do but alas it is a battle I lost long ago. Because I love desserts so much, I am always looking for ways to change up, old school desserts. Since…

I love food trends. I follow them and try to keep,you all informed. This year I have seen Apple Cider Donuts everywhere! I love that they can be fried or baked. I’ve seen them sprinkled with cinnamon sugar or glazed. I made mine in a donut…

I already knew I was having a love affair with browned butter. It adds such a richness to any dish it’s in. That nutty aroma that fills your house when you are browning it, is amazing. Butter is already great but browning it adds such…

I hope you are enjoying my re-vamped website.  Love my new logo and slowly but surely I am adding new recipes and photos. I am so fortunate to have great readers that don’t let me hang out there alone. I am re-sending the recipe for…

A friend said “I am so bored with my own cooking.” When I chimed in that so was I , she was flummoxed. What hope did that leave for her if even I am bored. It made we realize that we have to rely on…

I have a southern girl heart, so peaches and summertime are, literally, my jam. We have great summer fruit in California but it all seems to show up at once. Surprisingly, finding the perfect peach can actually be a challenge. There are the farmers that…

This is a repost of this recipe but let’s be honest; you can never read a red velvet cake recipe too many times. This recipe is an original from my family, in Georgia, so you know it’s good! I want you to pay attention to…

This past week, I made Oatmeal Blueberry Cookies. I haven’t made them in years. But like a lot of you, I am digging deep into my resources to come up with different things to cook and bake, during this “stay-at-home” time. I first made these…
