Food, Wine, Family. Fun!
I feel like all I've been making is dessert bars lately. It's been very hot and humid here in PA and bars are pretty quick and easy to make ... plus they don't take long to bake, so I'm not heating up my kitchen for very long. I promise I have some new recipes coming… Continue reading Strawberry Lemon Blondies
As I begin to reflect on the last 10 years of blogging, it's crazy how many recipes I've made and shared with you all. I decide as part of my celebration, I would go back to some of my original recipes and make them again. I forgot how amazing these s'mores cookie bars are! They… Continue reading S’mores Cookie Bars
Last weekend, I stopped by a neighboring town's Farmers Market and was excited to see one of the stands had garlic scapes. If you've never had a garlic scape before, you're missing out. They are the flower bud of a garlic bulb - they taste like garlic and can be used in any recipe as… Continue reading Creamy Garlic Scape Dip
Blueberries are just starting to be in-season and I can't wait to make more recipes with blueberries. I picked up a pint of fresh berries from a local farm stand and they were delicious. I'm hoping my husband's grandfather invites us to his house to pick blueberries this year. We've been able to go in… Continue reading Blueberry Swirl Cheesecake Bars
Summer is officially here ... and it's finally feeling like summer in PA. Our first heat wave is here and I'm already looking for simple and easy dinner recipes. My husband and I love fish tacos and I love that I can make them at home in no time at all. This recipe is simple… Continue reading Fish Tacos with Lime Crema
I have to give my mom credit to sharing this recipe with me. She recently made it for a picnic and it was a HUGE hit! It's a quick and easy dish to make for any gathering. I made it for a Father's Day picnic at my in-law's house and everyone enjoyed it. It's basically… Continue reading Italian Hoagie Dip
Life is slowing down for us this summer and that means I'm able to get back into the kitchen. I'm taking full advantage of the time this weekend and made these mini galettes. Whenever I buy ricotta for recipes, I always have some leftover. This recipe uses a cup of ricotta and the perfect way… Continue reading Mini Ricotta Galettes with Fruit
Did you know today is "National Cupcake Lovers Day"? Me either, until a blogging friend invited me to participate in a fun challenge to share cupcake recipes. My entire family is a big fan of cupcakes, though I rarely make them for us. I think the problem is that most recipes make two dozen cupcakes… Continue reading Small Batch Chocolate Cupcakes with Cookie Dough Frosting
School is coming to an end. Sports are slowing down. The primary election is over. Time to get back into the kitchen! I'm slowly easing my way back in and made this delicious cake over the weekend. It's light and fluffy, has a hint of lemon and the fresh blueberries were perfect. The cake is not… Continue reading Lemon Blueberry Breakfast Cake
In my last Misfit Market box, I received a small bunch of purple kale and was in the mood for kale salad. My family is not a big fan of kale, but I love it. Especially with a simple dressing and topped with dried cranberries, Parmesan and sunflower seeds. I'm looking forward to making this… Continue reading Chopped Kale Salad
