Mathematics {Recipe: Breakfast Oatmeal Pie}
Today is pi day…3.14. Since I am a food blogger, I am going to join the masses of others who turn this mathematics focused day into something food related. Pie day. Pie is much more fun than the actual math related pi, don’t you think? In all honesty, math is not my strong suit. In…
A Pasta Discovery {Recipe: Rustic Baked Rigatoni}
I know… I know… stop talking about the darn homemade pasta, right? I’m sorry! I just can’t help it. When I made homemade pasta for the first time last week, it was kind of a moment for me. I looked back at my Hamburger Helper days many moons ago and marveled at how far I…

Cookie Trends (Recipe: Cinnamon Roll Cookies with Vanilla Glaze)
Cinnamon Roll Cookies are your favorite breakfast sweet bread in cookie form! I read an article awhile back that in 2011, Pie was going to be the new Cupcake. You can expect the cupcake trend to fade, but anticipate that Pies, in all flavors, shapes and sizes, will be peaking in 2011. I love pie……
Traditions? What Traditions? {Recipe: Baked Sweet Potato Fries}
Thanksgiving was really quiet at our house this year. We typically have a group of neighbors over who do not have family nearby and we all enjoy a loud, raucous, delicious Thanksgiving together. This year, however, everyone was heading out of town which left us to a house with, well… just us. I was a…
Polite Bread Eating {Recipe: French Bread Rolls}
I am a bread lover. If I had to give up all other food but one, bread would make the cut and would become my one and only. I love all kinds of bread. I do not love trying to figure out a polite way to eat crusty French rolls, though… do you? You…
