Glazed Doughnut Muffins

July 1, 2010

I am not really a doughnut fan; however, I do love me some muffins. I especially adore big muffins with gorgeous domed crowns. When I came across this recipe on King Arthur Flour, I knew they would be a perfect grab and go breakfast for Brian to take to work. So, I whipped them together, [...]

Lemon Blueberry Crumb Bars

June 17, 2010

I adore blueberries…fresh out of a bowl, in my cereal and especially baked into yummy desserts…throw in some lemon and I am one happy girl. Although I love some blueberry goodness, I refuse to pay the crazy high prices I have been seeing at the market. I improvised a bit and used frozen berries in this [...]

Fresh Strawberry Bread

June 2, 2010

Less than six months ago very few of my co-workers knew of my blog; however, the cat made its way out of the bag and now pretty much everyone knows. I don’t really know why I did not tell people, I guess I’m kind of weird {read: anxious} like that and did not want anyone [...]

White Chocolate Cherry Scones

April 22, 2010

Can you tell I have developed a thing for scones? I am smitten with them and they have quickly become one of my favorite things to bake. I love experimenting with different flavor combinations, although I have yet to meet a scone I didn’t like. I picked up some dried sour cherries from my favorite specialty store [...]

Cinnamon Chip Scones

April 12, 2010

There is something about scones that makes me want to curl up on my couch with a cup of tea and spend hours watching old movies under a fuzzy blanket. This is definitely not a luxury I have very often, but I still make scones and simply eat them while running out the door. Although [...]

Blueberry Zucchini Bread

April 9, 2010

I adore quick breads, they have a certain appeal to them…beyond their ease of preparation–to me they exude a high level of hominess and are the perfect giftable baked good! If you are a baking newbie, a quick bread is well, quick and is leavened through the use of a chemical leavener such as baking [...]

Blueberry-Lemon Bundt Cake

April 5, 2010

I like plans, to-do lists and schedules; rarely do I veer away from my “system”. Some think I am slightly obsessed, others totally relate to my anal behavior and embrace it, some even covet this part of my personality. Really I am just not a “fly by the seat of my pants” type of gal [...]

Meyer Lemon Strawberry Muffins

April 1, 2010

The weather is simply gorgeous here in Ohio, today was almost 80 degrees. Although I’m sure these temperatures will not hold steady, I am definitely enjoying it while I can. Lemons and warm weather seem to go hand in hand, which is why Meyer Lemon desserts have seemed to be making appearances all over the [...]

Homemade Doughnuts

February 27, 2010

I made these doughnuts on Sunday morning and was so pumped about them, I had BIG plans to have them posted by Monday. As you can tell, I failed at my plan. I came down with a bit of a cold, and those of you that know me personally, can attest to the fact that [...]

Maple Chip Waffles

February 20, 2010

I like to sleep, quite frankly it’s one of my favorite hobbies, but unfortunately I don’t get much of it during the week. So when the weekend hits, I am all about getting my sleep on…yep, sleeping in and making waffles! My dad gave me this Waring Pro Waffle Iron last year and it sat [...]

Homemade Granola & Parfaits

January 10, 2010

I am not a huge breakfast fan, most of the time I roll out of bed with enough time to shower and get ready for work. Honestly, I would prefer an extra ten minutes of sleep over preparing and eating breakfast. This comes back to bite me in the butt when I am starving by [...]

Cranberry Crumb Bars…

November 13, 2009

With fresh cranberries being abundant in grocery stores at this time of year, I had to pick up a few bags to use in my delectable fall baking. When I saw Katy’s recipe for Cranberry Crumb Bars on goodLife {eats}, I knew this would be my very first fresh cranberry endeavor of the season. The [...]
