New Year's resolution #1 is to get back to blogging. The whole, two kids in school at different times/becoming nothing more than a chauffeur thing has really thrown me off my game. Nevertheless, there were many brilliant recipes this year and so I bring you Bakerlady's Top Ten of 2012. By popularity (that means you… Continue reading Top Ten of 2012

I'm a homeschooling mom of two. Bakerlady to many. Figuring out this crazy symphony called life and sharing the journey with you.
I pulled up this blog today as it’s pumpkin carving time again. I’ll be sure to have some new pics from this year soon, but wanted to share the seed recipe again for those of you who are new to Bakerlady. Enjoy!
I used to just throw some salt and oil on my pumpkin seeds every year. Then a few years ago, I came across a recipe that used these ingredients. I’ve tweaked the recipe quite a bit based on what I’ve learned from making Chex mix from my mom’s old old recipe of it. Newer recipes use WAY less butter and seasoned salt. Same here. I pumped up the seasonings and the butter. Voila! Fantastic pumpkin seeds people will actually want to eat!
Love this recipe idea? Check out more Halloween party food on my Fabulously Freaky Halloween Fodder post. It’s full of devilish and delicious ideas!

Fabulously Freaky Halloween Fodder
I love throwing Halloween parties. Mostly because I get to make delicious food and give it disgusting names. Here's a round-up of all the deliciousness I made this year and the nastiness I called it. Most of these items are easy to make (and can be done ahead of time) so you won't be slaving… Continue reading Fabulously Freaky Halloween Fodder
Oven Baked Apple Chips
First of all, my apologies for being away so long. Bad Tonya. Bad bad. I have allowed my life to become too full. Actually, I thought with both my children heading to school this fall, my schedule would free up substantially. Apparently having more time is the great lie of having school age children. Why… Continue reading Oven Baked Apple Chips
Rainbow Happiness Six Layer Cake
We had the mother of all rainbow birthdays this weekend for my sweet six-year-old Madison. My house looked like a unicorn threw up all over. It was epic fun. A hyperactivity inducing, spectrum spectacular. Brightly colored craziness. We had a blast. The pièce de résistance of the party was a stunning six layer rainbow cake.… Continue reading Rainbow Happiness Six Layer Cake
French Toast with Spiced Pears
I was given a big bag of pears from my mom last week from the bounty of her orchard. Ok, it's not a real orchard, just a few trees in her yard. But my mom's green thumb is absurd. She's like the plant whisperer. There's so much fruit on her trees, you'd think she had… Continue reading French Toast with Spiced Pears
Lemon Drop Martini
A good lemon drop martini is a perfect balance of tart and sweet. It should have enough vodka to give it a slightly dry martini feel in your mouth, but enough juice and sweetness to be utterly refreshing. This is my version. I think it's pretty much perfect. I came up with this recipe because… Continue reading Lemon Drop Martini
Anna’s Amazing Jalapeno Jelly
My mom-in-law makes amazing canned goods. I've been enjoying her jams, pickled beans, asparagus and salsa for years. The one thing I have never tried is her jalapeno jelly. I can hardly tolerate mild salsa so I figured anything made entirely from hot peppers was just never going to happen for me. Boy was I… Continue reading Anna’s Amazing Jalapeno Jelly
Foggy Morning Mini Pumpkin Cheesecake Balls
Fall is here! This morning I was treated to my favorite weather on earth. Fog. Wonderful, misty, curl up with a book in front of a fire fog. Chilly damp mystery novel fog. I love it. I think it's deep in my English blood to adore a nice foggy morning. Or so my Nanny tells… Continue reading Foggy Morning Mini Pumpkin Cheesecake Balls
Raspberry Oatmeal Cookie Bars
In the past several weeks I made two monumentally bad choices. Probably more, but these two will probably haunt me the rest of my life. The first mistake was trying salt n' pepper pistachios for the first time. Please hold your judgement until you find out the other thing I've never had before. Pistachios pale… Continue reading Raspberry Oatmeal Cookie Bars
