First of all. I'm back! I was pounded with the cold/flu season and was basically non-functioning for about 6 weeks. Last week I emerged from my bed to find that the world had changed in my absence. None of my kid's clothes fit, I couldn't get shoes on their feet because they too had grown… Continue reading Quick Cobbler

Perfect Dinner Rolls
I love love love my new bread machine. It's so easy to just throw all the ingredients in, turn it on and have beautiful dough. The recipe for these rolls is pretty time-consuming - only because you have to allow it to rise three times. You don't really have to do anything with the dough… Continue reading Perfect Dinner Rolls
Biscuits and Gravy
This is probably my favorite indulgent food. I love biscuits. I love meat. I love gravy. This combines all three in a perfect heart attack waiting to happen. But they are sooooooooooo good. Biscuits and gravy are something that can feed a crowd with minimal work during your party too. You can make everything the… Continue reading Biscuits and Gravy
Clone of a Cinnabon
I used to love Cinnabon. Really, I still do. I just can't afford them anymore. Financially or physically. For a playoff Sunday of football, I figured I could make an exception. At least on the physical part. These are exactly like the real thing - and a dozen don't cost anywhere CLOSE to $30. Best… Continue reading Clone of a Cinnabon
Sicky Sickerson
Well, it's official. I think I'm finally getting over the cold/cough that has kept me bedridden the majority of the past week. I don't even know what day it is today...and haven't left the warm snuggly of my bed for more than an hour or so in about 5 days. My poor kids have been… Continue reading Sicky Sickerson
Apple Carrot Bran Muffins
We are having an aerobics session at tomorrow's MOPS. And, my table is on tap for breakfast foods. I figured I should bring something that's not laden with sugar, butter and cheese. Drat. These muffins totally fit the bill. They are chock full of fruits and veggies - and almost no fat! They are moist,… Continue reading Apple Carrot Bran Muffins
Awesomely Good Blueberry Muffins
Ok. This is way more like it. I decided to whip up another batch of muffins. I couldn't just let my baking failure stay with me all day long. Since I didn't have anymore sour cream and didn't want to make a trip to the store, I used this recipe instead of trying the other… Continue reading Awesomely Good Blueberry Muffins
Bad Blueberry Muffins
Holy cow. It has been a long time since I baked something that turned out so badly. I'm posting this because I want you all to know that sometimes, even people who bake all the time with great success have total disasters. Messing up is no reason to stop trying! I'm sure this recipe is… Continue reading Bad Blueberry Muffins
Cheddar Bay Biscuits
I've only been to Red Lobster a couple of times, and the only memorable thing about my visits was their biscuits. Light cheddar biscuits filled with savory seasonings. Yum yum. This makes about 24 biscuits - so if you've got a small family, you might want to cut the recipe in half. I guarantee that… Continue reading Cheddar Bay Biscuits
Glazed Cinnamon Raisin Scones
We got new neighbors last weekend (total bummer to be moving New Year weekend) - and I've been waiting until the dust settles next door to bring over some baked goodies and say "hello!". My super awesome talented cousin posted this recipe on her blog today and I decided it was perfect for saying "Welcome… Continue reading Glazed Cinnamon Raisin Scones
