Cranberry Fruit Dip
Sometimes holiday food can feel heavy with breads, chocolates, and meats. While I love crackers and cheese for a before-the-feast-snack, a fruit board with fruit dip can lighten up the affair. It will tie you over so you’re stomach isn’t growling away. I don’t know how your Thanksgiving meals go but here is how we…
Artichoke Pinwheels
Artichoke dip is a must at any family party. When Andy and I got married, a family friend gave us a recipe for artichoke dip and while I have tweaked it over the years it is the basis of this recipe. Add artichoke dip to puff pastry and how can you say no? This recipe…
Chicken Salad Cream Puffs
Raise your hand if you like cream puffs? ME, ME, ME! Well, who says you have to fill a choux (pronounced “shoe”) pastry with cream? I say that you don’t. These are delicious little appetizers or hors d’oeuvres that would be great at any holiday get together. I know that there may not be many…
Cinnamon Sugar Cookie with Browned Butter Caramel Frosting and Caramel Drizzle
Well, if the title of this is a mouthful you bet the cookie it describes is a delicious mouthful. This is a beautiful, elegant, tasty cookie prefect for a special event. As the temperatures get colder, all I want to do is bake! The warm oven and delicious smells are like a warm blanket. The…
Pumpkin Spice Truffles
Are you a fan of the Oreo truffles everyone makes at Christmas? I am! My whole family loves them. Since we love them so much, I decided to make a fall version. They are equally as good. It is SUPER easy. You have no excuse not to make these. And guess what? You don’t have…
Pumpkin Spice Cinnamon Rolls
Fall is officially here and I am fully embracing all things pumpkin spice. I love that when the seasons change our food changes too! Isn’t that what we love about the holidays? Food?!? As we transition from flip flops to boots, shorts to jeans, and tank tops to sweaters, our food transitions from burgers to…
Corn Fritters
You know a restaurant is good when you want to recreate the meal at home. That is what Jesse’s BBQ in Souderton, PA has done with their corn fritters and my taste buds. Also their loaded fries – I have already recreated them which you can find here. I can’t say I have it exactly…
Pumpkin Cremes
Fall is upon us. It feels like that anyway. Even though officially it doesn’t begin until the 21st, the beginning of September is always when I get out the Fall decorations. After a long summer, all we want in this house is Christmas! Since September is still too soon for Christmas decorations, we settle for…
Salmon Dip
My favorite fish is salmon. I wasn’t always a fish lover, which is strange since I grew up 15 minutes from the ocean and just down the road from a marina! I could smell the fish as I rode by on my bike. It always kind of grossed me out. Maybe that is why I…
Instant Pot Fettuccine Alfredo
The more I use the instant pot the more I LOVE it. It has become my very good friend during these hot summer months. Also, cooking pasta makes for a FAST meal. It the time it takes to build up pressure, cook, and then release pressure, I can make a salad and garlic bread and…
Breakfast Burritos
Breakfast. Some people say it is the most important meal of the day. I am not a nutritionist or anything close so I can’t claim that breakfast is important for scientific reasons. I am human, though, and know that I need fuel for the day. So breakfast, it’s an important meal. It is also important…

Crumb Coffee Cake
It is not too often that I eat cake for breakfast but when I do – I want a crumb coffee cake. My blueberry coffee cake is amazing as well as my cinnamon sour cream coffee cake. However, nostalgia always takes over and this one brings back all the memories. My sister and I were…
