Chocolate Snickerdoodles
I love playing hostess. One of my favorite things to do is to make a meal and enjoy it with friends and family. Usually, I end up going a little overboard as the host- I start to feel like dinner isn’t enough on its own, and then I start making drinks and desserts and bread. […]
Irish Potato Candies
Forget the corned beef and cabbage. This is how to celebrate St. Paddy’s Day. I’m assuming that if you’re not from Philly or Central PA, you’ve probably never heard of Irish Potatoes. Or maybe you have (sorry for assuming, you well-informed-blog-reader, you!) Either way, you’re in for a Philadelphia-style treat. As a Pennsylvania native, I […]
Make Ahead Baked Oatmeal
Baked oatmeal is a great way to start your morning. I just ate this beautiful breakfast and the day is already off to a great start. Growing up in Central PA, baked oatmeal was always one of my favorite treats to have when we went out for breakfast. Every little diner and family restaurant has […]
New York-Style Crumb Cake
Good afternoon, earthquake survivors! Seems like everyone is a little shook up today. We didn’t feel it down here in GA, but if we had, I would certainly be celebrating survival with this crumb cake. Truthfully, I made this crumb cake about 100 million years ago and forgot to post it. I found the photos […]
Pie Fries
Wondering what you’re going to do with your pie dough scraps? Do you even have pie dough scraps?Sometimes I do. Usually, I just throw them away, but if there’s a ton left over, I’ll make hand pies. After my pie dough comparison, I had a lot of extra dough and had already made hand pies, […]
Vegan CocoNana Mini Muffins
Even though I’m not living the vegan lifestyle anymore, I’m still finding ways to enjoy vegan recipes in my diet. I saw this recipe this morning on Miss Mary‘s blog and I had to jump right in and make them! They looked delicious and simple, and they were. The name CocoNana refers to the coconut […]
Cinnamon Sugar Baked Doughnuts
Back in January, when I started this whole great adventure, I promised you doughnuts during Brunch Month. It took me all month, but I can finally deliver! Here’s my deal with doughnuts. I usually don’t eat them. I don’t work in an office these days, and I don’t make a habit of driving through Krispy […]
Fruit and Nut Granola
This post is long overdue. I am a granola person. It’s just how I roll. Not only that, but I’m a picky granola person. I like my granola just so. And maybe that’s why I’ve waited so long to make it for myself. I wouldn’t want to force down a batch of bad granola.. yuck. […]
