I have a confession to make. Tonight I went to Starbucks to work on some blogging (which is not a good idea considering I was really distracted by all the conversations going on around me, I got to know these two people sitting next to me, way more than I wanted to!) My Confession: I […]

I think I’ve mentioned before that scones are one of my weaknesses in life? Well, they are! I was pleased with this recipe, and although the picture doesn’t show, the first time I added currents and I liked them much better. They turned out just moist enough :) I got lots of compliments on this […]

My kids are not huge fans of fruit desserts, pies and such. So I thought I would try this cobbler recipe from my “Best of Country Pies” recipe book that I got from my mom a few years ago. The kids loved this dessert! It was pretty cakey and less juicy/fruity :) So if you […]

This ice cream or sorbet was perfect! The kids had a blast making it with our new juicer and it was so fast and easy. The best part about it is that it’s so healthy, you could eat it for breakfast lunch and dinner. Nothing added, just frozen fruit. Half the fruit I froze myself […]

For those of you who know about juicing, this juicer is amazing! The pulp is totally dry when it comes out and I’m getting a lot more juice for how many vegetables I am juicing. Tonight we made ice cream from frozen fruit, it was absolutely amazing! We are going to get years of use […]

Tonight I was really craving something sweet. I may have broken down and drug the family to Cold Stone Creamery if we had had any extra cash. But we didn’t, so I had to be creative. So what is the first thing that draws the creativity out of me when I am pregnant and tired? […]

My dear friend Rene made me a Chocolate Peanut Butter Cheesecake for my birthday. I must add that she is 13 weeks pregnant and really sick (and she can’t eat peanut butter while she pregnant because it makes her sick!). Thank you Rene, it was a beautiful cheesecake and tasted so good! A few of […]

My mother made this recipe and for all the healthy stuff in this cake, it was delicious! This cake is very moist, and the neat thing about this recipe is that you can really adjust it to your own preferences. I will definitely be making this cake, one day!

I had a lot of fun making this cheesecake, actually a confession, I just really love cheesecake! For some reason I always seem to find an excuse to try a new recipe for a special occasion. The candied orange slices were different and yet very tasty. I will make this again, with just a few […]
