Good grief, it's been almost a year. A year!! SO MUCH has happened in that year, and I wasn't sure if I would ever get to come back. I've wanted to, but it just hasn't been in the cards until now. I wasn't sure if anyone would even care at this point if I came back. But … Continue reading I’m Alive and Kicking- Really!

Easy Printing… For Real This Time
So after being informed by my BFF that the print feature I added awhile back actually prints the entire blog post instead of only the recipe like I wanted it to, I have (with a little help from a more experienced blogger) figured out how to make only the recipe in each post printable. Yay! … Continue reading Easy Printing… For Real This Time
Winter Getting You Down? I Have the Answer!- Lemonies
My goodness gracious; it's cold! That's true for just about everywhere in America right now, but it goes double for the Northern Plains where I'm at. Everywhere I go there's talk of wishing for summer and lamenting how crazy cold it is. I can understand why they feel that way; not everyone dislikes summer like … Continue reading Winter Getting You Down? I Have the Answer!- Lemonies

In the meantime, I had something exciting happen last week: I was contacted by Endless Simmer to be featured in their Top 10 … Continue reading It’s An Honor- An Appearance Outside My Own Blog!

Mommy Brain Strikes Again- Very UN-Softened Butter
I'm supposed to be baking my twins' birthday cake today. The recipe calls for 2 sticks of softened butter. Butter that I was going to get out of the freezer last night and set on the counter so it would be ready to go when I was. Guess who didn't get the butter out of … Continue reading Mommy Brain Strikes Again- Very UN-Softened Butter
Baking Days- A New Schedule
I've always loved baking (those who know me know that I was very close to making a career for myself out of baking & pastry arts) but more often than not I end up cooking for my family rather than baking. Until fairly recently baking was something I did for a special occasion or when … Continue reading Baking Days- A New Schedule
