Simple Pie Crust Recipe Tis' the season for baking pies! And I have the easiest and best tasting pie crust for you today. I have used it for years....with both sweet and savory pies and it works perfectly every single time. And it really is fast to make up a batch (or three)! Each recipe below makes two pie crusts. I usually make up three batches for my family for a holiday....so it's two pumpkin pies, one apple pie and one cherry to make everyone happy over here. I have a 9 year old that ... View the Post
Simple Caramel Apple Recipe
Simple Caramel Apple Recipe I have been on a mission to master some recipes that I miserably failed at when I was first married and learning to cook. And caramel....well it has been my nemesis for awhile now. The first time I made it, I almost lit the pan on fire and the smell of burnt sugar was lingering for days. It was that bad. So, I was scared of trying again for awhile while I worked up the courage to do it again. Last fall I finally decided it was time. Time to conquer caramel! And ... View the Post
Easy Hot Chocolate Charcuterie Board
Today I'm excited to share an easy hot chocolate charcuterie board that you can use at gatherings throughout the holiday season. Although...admittedly...this isn't a board. It is a tray I bought over the summer and LOVE. I use it ALL THE TIME. (I tried to find a link to it and can't find the exact tray but you can find ones similar HERE and HERE.) With the hot chocolate charcuterie I do prefer to use a tray with sides because most often I am putting this together for a gathering ... View the Post
Cheesy Cauliflower Soup
One of my very favorite soups at Zupas is their cheesy cauliflower soup and I have been trying for several weeks to make one at home that tastes just as good. And I think I have found one! I don't claim it is a knock off recipe--mostly because I am not that good--but I love this soup and so does my family. And it can be made in 30 minutes so you can get dinner on the table fast! I paired it with homemade bread and I know it's going into the rotation for winter. It is so good! This soup is ... View the Post
What is Swiss Chard and How to Use it
A Farmers Market popped up at the park next to my house this summer and I fell in love. It was fabulous to go every Saturday and pick up fresh fruit, vegetables, breads, etc. Over the weeks my family and I became enamored by all the beautiful produce on display and found ourselves trying food that we haven't often, if ever eaten....food like Swiss Chard. I initially bought Swiss Chard because I wanted to draw it. The colored stalks...the lovely leaves....it was asking to be studied ... View the Post
End of Summer Sausage Soup Recipe
This summer I have had the luxury of a Farmer's Market, held every Saturday, at a park right next to my neighborhood. It has been fantastic. I love going each week...I have my own little stand there where I sell bread...but that is another story for a different time...today's story is about all the delicious produce that I come home with every week....carrots, potatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, beets, lemon grass, jalapenos, etc etc etc. Fresh produce really is like heaven on earth and I feel ...
