Welcome to the first weekend of Fall! Do you have any outdoor, Fall plans? Attending a fun festival, visiting a pumpkin patch or local cider mill, picking fresh apples or enjoying a little wine tasting while taking in the beautiful Autumn colors at a local vineyard? Those are some of my favorite Autumn things to do,…
Lemon & Cream Cheese Coffee Cake
Lemons. I just love them! They are bright, cheerful and remind me of Spring. Just slicing into a fresh lemon and smelling that wonderful clean, citrus aroma puts a smile on my face. I like to use lemon for all sorts of things like cleaning and such, but I love baking with lemons. Adding a…
Blueberry & Almond Coffee Cake
I am so glad the weekend is finally here! My children just finished the school year and are ready to relax a bit and have some summer fun! Although I am always excited to enjoy the great weather and move on to outdoor fun and activities with them, I was a little sad when the bus…

Cinnamon Nut Coffee Cake

This cake is topped with a crunchy cinnamon- nut mixture, while more cinnamon & nuts are swirled into the moist cake. A slice of…
