I have always loved baking in the mornings, especially in the colder months of the year. There’s just something about heating up the oven on a chilly morning and baking something for breakfast in my PJs. Since Miss Madison arrived, though, I haven’t been doing as much early morning baking. Morning baking has been replaced with…
For this Kitchen Bootcamp challenge, I asked everyone to spend some time in the kitchen getting familiar with yeast breads… Many of you know that I love to bake, and baking with yeast is pretty high up there on my list. While a new baby has kept me from doing as much baking for this challenge as I…
I’ve been taking a bit of a break from my Friday Favorites lately… My regular Friday Favorites will return later this fall (post-baby!). But, lately I just haven’t had the time and energy to get through my RSS reader each week. I suppose being close to 9 months pregnant is a good excuse, but I…
I think pumpkin is one of the first flavors that comes to mind when I think of fall… Apples are a close second, especially when they are paired with spices like cinnamon and cardamom. Add caramel into the mix, and I am a very happy girl. So, naturally, I had to put my spiced caramel…
I’ve made quite a few cakes lately… And, while I still prefer cookies to cake (any day of the week!), I’ve certainly improved my cake filling and frosting skills along the way. It’s one thing to bake a layer cake for the hubs and I and simply fill it with frosting. If it bulges on…

I don’t have a new recipe for you today… I have a pretty good reason, though! I was busy last week working on a graduation cake and cookies. I ended up putting most of my kitchen energy (what kitchen energy I actually have these days!) into the cake and cookies.
Since it’s Memorial Day weekend, I thought I’d share some festive recipes for this week’s Friday Favorites. Apparently my mind is stuck on sweets, though. So, if you’re looking for dessert ideas for your Memorial Day picnic, look no further. I think you’ll love these recipes!
All week, I’ve been talking about recipes that would be great for Mother’s Day. After all, there should be at least one day a year that moms don’t have to worry about making dinner (or lunch or breakfast!). So, with that in mind, here are a few more recipes that I think your mother will…
Yesterday I shared my baking woes with you… I told you all about how I scrambled my husband’s birthday cake and shared a list of what not to do when you’re baking a cake. So, it may seem a bit surprising to you that today I am going to share the recipe for the scrambled…
