Three Cups of Tea

I just have to give a little plug for a gift I was recently given. My grandma got me some cupcake liners and toppers from a local shop called "Three Cups of Tea" and I cannot get over how adorable they are! They are made by Meri Meri and are just about the cutest thing… Continue reading Three Cups of Tea

Bismark Doughnut Muffins

To me, you can't get better than a warm, jelly filled Bismark doughnut. I love them. It's a really good thing there is not a doughnut shop on my normal driving route because raspberry Bismarks are one of the foods I cannot resist. Really. Anybody wants to capture me and torture me for information -… Continue reading Bismark Doughnut Muffins

Game Night Treats

I'm so excited for the return of game night with my church small group. We have a great time together with food, laughter, games and just enjoying each others company. I went to some easy comfort food treats tonight. Nothing fancy or new, just good hang out snacks. Since I've posted them both before, I'm… Continue reading Game Night Treats

Spiced Wassail Muffins

I decided this morning that it had been too long since I made a yummy snack for my munchkins. I found a recipe for Spiced Raisin Muffins and decided that with a few adjustments they'd be perfect! I decided to name my creation Spiced Wassail Muffins because as I was baking them I realized they… Continue reading Spiced Wassail Muffins

Bakerlady Scones

I've posted this recipe before, but I have a lot of new readers who may have missed it. This is my absolute most requested treat. I have never had a better scone.  Seriously. You may think "a scone is just a scone", but you are wrong. You only think that because you've never had mine.… Continue reading Bakerlady Scones

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

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

Blueberry Bran Muffins

A little healthy snack for those of you watching your calories at the start of the new year. Don't we all have those 5 (cough!) - ok, 15 "Christmas cookie pounds" to lose? I certainly do. All my baking caught up with me this year. I modified this recipe so each muffin has a mere… Continue reading Blueberry Bran Muffins

Nuts n’ Bolts (aka: Chex Mix)

This is an absolutely classic Christmas recipe. My mom's giant tupperware bowls only came out once a year - to make Chex mix at Christmas time. We called it Nuts n' Bolts - and as soon as it was placed on paper towels to cool, we were sneaking bites. I don't care for the recipe… Continue reading Nuts n’ Bolts (aka: Chex Mix)

Banana Snack Cake

With the greater Seattle area in the midst of the first massive snowstorm of the year (ie: we have a trace of snow on the ground), I settled into the kitchen to use up some black bananas. Yes, there's always those couple in each bunch my kids don't devour before they're past the point of… Continue reading Banana Snack Cake
