Yes, once again I found myself with over-ripe bananas that I needed to use. I think it happens at least one a month, but no one was complaining this month after I made this cake! It was soooo good. The cake is moist and light, and then the caramelized bananas with the melted butter and… Continue reading Caramelized Banana Upside Down Cake
This is the second recipe that made for August's Cookbook Club Review group. I had a bunch of peaches and raspberries to use and I found this great recipe for peach cobbler.

The overwhelming comment was chocolate chip cookies...but I… Continue reading Chocolate Peanut Butter Sandwich Cookies #FilltheCookieJar
As you know we love breakfast for dinner. I had two frozen pie crusts and eggs that I needed to use, so quiche was the perfect solution. I made one with vegetables and the other with ham and cheese. I knew the kids would eat the ham and cheese one with no problem, but I… Continue reading Veggie Quiche
What do you do when you're up to eyeballs with zucchini? I've made muffins, shredded it and froze it, but still have more to use.
