"We'll go to the food court and get one of those funnel cakes you love.". So says the wife trying to mollify her husband after refusing to purchase him a two thousand and four hundred-dollar designer suit. Pouting ensues, before, finally accepting his fate, the hubby replies "We'll get a funnel cake - it'll be… Continue reading This Funnel Cake Will Be The Highlight of Your Week

Amazing Cherry Pit Removal
Summer will never be the same. Cherry pit removal with a straw. Easy peasy. Take a straw. I used a hard plastic one from a reusable hot/cold coffee cup. Place it at the base of your cherry. Mmmmm. Succulent Rainier cherries. Then push thru the top. Boom. Done. Mind blown. Devour. Repeat. Or, do a bunch… Continue reading Amazing Cherry Pit Removal
Hamburger Cookies
I got the idea for these adorable cookies from my friend Rachel. She's always doing fun things with her girls and is just generally an awesome resource for delightful kiddo entertainment. I gave my kids a simple demo and then let them do the rest. They LOVED making (and eating!) these cookies! Easy, delicious and… Continue reading Hamburger Cookies
Fruity Lemon Cheesecake Cookie Cups
Do any of you use Safeway's "Just-for-U" program/app? I always forget about it until I'm mostly done with my shopping. Then I'm standing in the aisle, trying to get service on my phone so I can check if anything I'm already purchasing has a coupon. Occasionally, instead of a coupon, I find a freebie. "Mini-birthday… Continue reading Fruity Lemon Cheesecake Cookie Cups
Easy Strawberry Pie
I am a strawberry pie novice. I'm not blessed with the nostalgia of eating it as a child. I have no memory of gobbling down a gorgeous slice on a sticky summer evening. I envy those of you who regularly enjoyed traditional strawberry pie from your favorite little diner. On the corner. With kids playing… Continue reading Easy Strawberry Pie
Rustic Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake Tart
Summer is officially here! That means soon there will be all kinds of fresh berries available! Yippee! I'm really more of an autumn girl - actually, around the end of May I start looking forward to sweaters, colorful leaves, hearty soups and the smell of new school supplies. It's a sickness. Add it to the… Continue reading Rustic Raspberry Lemon Cheesecake Tart
Genius Golden Grahams Smore Bars
A couple housekeeping items before we get to the deliciousness here. Notice the new watermark gracing the corners of my photos? Isn't it lovely? Hopefully it will help keep people (who are not me) from passing off my stuff as theirs. Sometimes I'm so disappointed in humanity. Also, just above the actual recipe details, you'll… Continue reading Genius Golden Grahams Smore Bars
Robbed, Impersonated and Pissed Off
I just have to warn you that I'm extremely angry right now. I came home from a lovely Memorial weekend of camping in the great outdoors to find that someone has stolen content, copy and photos from Bakerlady and passed it off as his own. So here's my great big "you thieving rat" post. "Boy… Continue reading Robbed, Impersonated and Pissed Off
Oatmeal Lemon Creme Bars
I love all things lemon. I always have lemony recipes hanging around to try. My plan for this week was to immerse myself in all things yellow happiness fruit baking related. When I went to make two lemon desserts today I found half my lemons had vanished. They were in the fruit basket two days… Continue reading Oatmeal Lemon Creme Bars
Pumpkin Crunch Cake
If you are familiar with dump cake, you'll see the genius of this recipe immediately. My mom used to make dump cake when I was a kid. I'll have to post that "recipe" sometime soon. It's essentially canned fruit, topped with dry cake mix and smothered with butter. Not really a cake in the traditional… Continue reading Pumpkin Crunch Cake
