What a busy weekend around here this weekend. Yesterday was spent in town with my family at the Children and the Arts day. It is kind of near and dear to my heart as this is its 31st year and my kids use to participate and I volunteered for years, most schools and day care centers in the area create something for the kids to … Continue reading Louisiana Crunch Cake
I have had a written down on a scrap piece of paper for over a month now on making a Dutch Baby. Today was the day it finally happened, and it was worth the wait. My husband asked for something completely different, but I had waited long enough, fairly certain if I didn’t make it I would have probably lost the scrap piece of paper; … Continue reading Dutch Baby
I either never heard or of or maybe I had and I had forgotten this but I came across a reel where she was making a quiche and I don’t usually make quiche because I don’t want to make a crust. Yes I know you can make a crustless quiche but I tend to make a frittata and call it a day! Any way I … Continue reading Julia Child never fail Quiche
Let me start by saying I am kind of particular when it comes to eggs. Meaning if I am going to make and eat an egg I first want it poached second would be fried and that is basically it. I have never made or had a scrambled egg that was calorie worthy. My husband makes the best omelets so I also eat those on … Continue reading Poached Egg on Hash Brown Toast
Sorry I am so late in posting today. The day totally got away from me. I had planned on putting Christmas away, which is definitely started but still a long way to go. I just remembered I still hadn’t written or posted a blog. I had some croissants leftover from Christmas morning so I knew no one was going to eat them so what to … Continue reading Croissant Casserole
Better late than never is what I am going with today. I know I usually post around 9am-ish. At least that it what I strive for. Apparently today had other plans. It’s 4pm and I just got out of the shower and am now finally getting to write. I am sitting on the porch, it’s super quiet, the leaves are falling all over the ground. … Continue reading Broccoli and Bacon Quiche
looking at reals on my phone my favorite chef was making these and I immediately wanted one. So I made them this morning. Ina Garten is one the greats! I truly believe no one knows what goes on behind closed doors but she seems to have it all and is still a little humble. Ever since I saw her party barn in The Hamptons; I … Continue reading Chocolate Chip Pecan Scones
We had 3-5 inches of snow yesterday! So no this is definitely not from my garden, I can honestly say I have never had any tulips, no matter how many I planted, look like this picture. I thought you and I could use some beautiful flowers in our lives right now. Next week is Easter and I will not be around so my kids will … Continue reading Carrot Cake Muffins or Cake
Today I need to deal with a very large pot of turkey stock. I will freeze some for later and make soup for the family with the balance. Myself and both of my kids and their significant others have decided to make a large batch of something and share between our three households as well as my In-laws who are in their 90’s. It has … Continue reading Carrot Cake Muffins
We “traveled” to Italy last week for our family’s weekly #worldwidewednesday dinner and I was sort of on my own, Nate did make a delicious appetizer sandwich with prosciutto, mozzarella, arugula, tomatoes and balsamic vinegar. But Abbi was not going to be able to make anything so I picked Italy. I knew I could pull it off, Italian food does not have to be difficult, … Continue reading Italian Lemon Ricotta Cake
