I could write a lot here about these muffins, but is that what you really want? A story about why I chose these particular muffins and the background of what I was feeling at the time? Probably not. You saw the title and you’re like, “Ooh, muffins – put that recipe in my face right […]
breads + breakfasts
Recipe – Homemade Biscuits
I have been having a lot of breakfast cravings recently – and don’t worry, this is not a pregnancy hint. No, I think what it is is finding myself awake in the mornings on weekends earlier than I would previously have chosen (thank you, Baby Girl), and in the mornings I want breakfast, and that […]
Recipe – Cheddar Walnut Scones
Apologies for the lack of post on Monday – we had a snowstorm, and I was home with the baby all day an didn’t have time to write. So no post. Next week will also be a two-post week because of the holiday on Monday, but if you’ve been reading this blog for a while, […]
Recipe – Greek Yogurt Pancakes
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just have a hankering – to do a thing, eat a thing, make a thing. And a few weeks ago, that particular hankering was related to breakfast. It was a Sunday morning, and the baby had slept well, so I was feeling good. And I woke up […]
Recipe – Mini Chocolate Chip Banana Bread Loaves
I’m going to be honest here when I say that I have no idea where this recipe comes from. Sort of. I got it from my mom, who sent me a scanned recipe page about 12 years ago. The bottom of the page is cut off, and while there is an author name attached, searching […]
Recipe – Basic Pancakes
Explaining pancake day (or Shrove Tuesday, or Mardi Gras) to someone who has not been raised with any kind of religion is complicated. So when I had to skip my church’s regular Shrove Tuesday pancake supper in order to be at home for H, I decided that we would make pancakes ourselves (they really aren’t […]
Recipe – Cinnamon Sugar Donut Mini Muffins
There are certain things that we can all agree on. And one of those is that when you are sick with a highly contagious infection, you probably shouldn’t prepare food for consumption by other people. But what if you think you only have a chest cold? What if you are a pregnant lady who assumes […]
Recipe – Savory Mini Muffins with Goat Cheese Red Onion and Rosemary
Have you ever made a recipe and when it comes out of the oven or wherever it looks nothing like what you expected? Or that it’s at least different enough to make your forehead crinkle and your head to tilt? That’s how I felt about these mini muffins. If you click through to the original […]
Recipe – Pumpkin Bread with Walnuts
If only you guys could see how much behind the scenes scrambling I do with regard to this blog. It’s mostly digital scrambling – rearranging my blog post calendar because we’ve switched theater tickets, or I have a placeholder for a regular feature which needs prompting but hasn’t been sent out yet. Sometimes I get […]
Recipe – Funfetti Cinnamon Rolls
After a week and a few days off, I’m back! We should be proceeding through most of the rest of the summer without interruption. “Unicorn” anything seems to be super popular now. Anything with rainbows and a magical, mystical aura about it is trendy – you see unicorn pool floats, unicorn frappucinos, unicorn hair. So […]
