These cute sprinkle cups are another great thing I pinned on Pinterest and vowed to make one day. That “one day” came and went a couple of months ago at my son’s birthday party. We had a few of his friends come over for pizza, games, and a sleep over. I [...]
Homemade Granola is one of those super easy recipes that often gets overlooked because it’s just so easy to buy pre-made, but if you’re willing to give it a try, I think you’ll be in for a real treat and be amazed at the wonderful flavor you can create at home, not to mention, you’ll [...]
About 12 years ago, when I was newly married, I happened to be shopping in my local grocery store, specifically in the dairy section picking up the old usual: milk, butter, eggs, and cheese, when an elderly lady approached me and asked me which brand of butter I preferred. I was completely caught off guard [...]
My husband and I had dinner at a steak house here in Houston called J. Alexander’s and I ordered their side special of Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Cauliflower. I love roasted vegetables, so I knew I would really like this. After eating this side dish, I was hooked! J. Alexander’s roasted these vegetables to perfection…they [...]

Scones have become a new love for me, especially as a choice at coffee shops for a breakfast treat. I used to not like them very much because they aren’t very sweet…and well, I’m a sweets person. But, to their credit, scones have a delicate sweetness that lets the spices and flavors shine through, and [...]

Do you ever make eggs in a basket? My husband’s family does (they call them “eggs in the middle”) and since we’ve been married, I’ve taken on the tradition of making them. You know, cut a hole out of a piece of buttered bread with a biscuit cutter, place in non-stick skillet to toast…crack an [...]
This recipe for Nutella Crescent Rolls will make your family smile. My husband says that they’re the best thing I’ve made in a long time. (Go figure…all my slaving away to make up some great and fabulous chef-worthy recipe and all he can talk about is this!) My daughter, Lexie, is a Nutella fiend and [...]
This recipe is our family’s favorite banana bread recipe. We actually call it Hawaiian Banana Bread because it has 8 ounces of crushed pineapple in the recipe that makes it super moist and delicious! In this picture, I’ve made it into muffins, but it’s a large recipe and will make two large loaves of banana [...]
