Pumpkin Beer Bread is one of the easiest quick breads to make this fall! Slightly sweet with cinnamon honey butter on the top, this bread goes great with hearty soups and stews. I’m not the world’s biggest pumpkin spice fiend, but I definitely get into seasonal baking. There are some people who get really into seasonal decorations and keep their houses looking beautiful inside and out (like my neighbors.) Meanwhile my house always seems to look half-abandoned from the outside,…

Soft and golden. Hearty and flavorful. These Caramelized Onion Buns are a match made in heaven for your hamburgers and sandwiches. Pile on the roast beef for an out of this world French dip! Anyway you slice it, you’ll never want to go back to boring store bought buns after having one of these fresh from the oven. My sister and I spent a lot of time with our Auntie Marilyn in the summers as kids. The best way to…
Delicious doesn’t have to be time-consuming or overly complex! This sweet and savory Maple Bacon Cornbread is a simple twist on boxed cornbread mix that takes 25 minutes. Have you ever noticed that we have a tendency to be harder on ourselves than we are on others? We’re always over-complicating things. Or holding ourselves up to impossible standards. Yesterday, I spent the whole day feeling like I just wasn’t doing good enough, I needed more motivation, better organization skills,…
Invoking thoughts of summer and sunflowers, this Sunflower bread is an easy multi-grain bread, slightly sweet and a bit nutty, altogether enjoyable. I hope that you all had a most wonderful Christmas. I did not. I spent all of the holiday sick or tending to sick kids. We played pass the strep throat and it got most of the way through my household. There are no winners in this game. It was awful stuff, and unfortunately because of the holiday,…
This garlic cheese focaccia bread is light and tender. Soaked with butter, garlic, herbs and cheese, it’s perfect for sopping up extra marinara sauce or the tail ends of the soup in your bowl. Be careful with this recipe. Fair warning, if you make it once you’ll probably be hooked. Oy vey. I’ve tried to write the post for this Garlic Cheese Focaccia bread recipe like 4 times, but nothing seems to be right. It’s been a weird week. Monday…
I love pepperoni, but I hate it on pizza. Is that weird? My husband tells me that’s weird. You know what I do love pepperoni in? Pasta salad, sandwiches, oh, and these divine little pepperoni and cheese puffs. Little bites of pepperoni with three cheeses that are perfect for dipping in pizza sauce. I have been snacking on, mmkay, scarfing down these things all week.
Pillow soft inside, crispy, buttery and cheesy on the outside, these asiago cheese soft pretzels come together in 30 minutes. Goodness gracious. I’ve spent this whole week a day behind. I thought yesterday was Wednesday, but I was so rudely roused from that delusion at bedtime, discovering that it was really Thursday. And here I was feeling so proud because I’d felt like I’d gotten so much accomplished. Do you ever have weeks like those? Throughout the summer, I…
Today’s post might get a little heavy, it does delve into some really deeply personal parts of my life that I don’t usually talk about much. To balance it out, later I’ve got a light, fluffy popover recipe to go with it. Balance is key in life, right? So today I thought I’d write about…writing. When I was in school I hated writing. I guess I hated it because it took so much time and it took so much…
