The summer is heating up and I am always looking for great ways to cool off. I often spend my afternoons working in my garden. It’s quiet and relaxing but it does get very hot! The vegetables love it, but I on the other hand enjoy a nice break in the shade once in a…
No Machine Strawberry & Pistachio Ice Cream
I can’t believe June is here already! My vegetable garden is planted and the weather is finally on the warm side. Today the humidity kicked in, but I am really enjoying most of my time outside. Last weekend we worked on getting out our patio furniture and we planted grass where tractors and trucks had been the…
Easy Lemon & Coconut Cream Pie
While the weather outside still hasn’t quite made it’s mind up about what season it is, I have decided to move on and pretend it’s already Spring! I spent this past weekend getting a head start on my “Spring Cleaning” and organizing in my kitchen. That darn forced air furnace that seemed to be running…
Hawaiian Pineapple & Coconut Pound Cake
Ahh, pineapple and coconut. Those tropical flavors can bring me right to the beach; just as long as I close my eyes and forget that I am wearing 3 layers of clothing because it’s snowing outside! That’s right. I’m not in Hawaii, and I’m not at the beach, I have just been doing a little…
Bailey’s Irish Cream Cheesecake Swirl Brownies
I just love Bailey’s Irish Cream! There is nothing Irish about me (with the exception of my first name) but I love adding Bailey’s Irish Cream to my favorite desserts to make them extra special. If you have never tasted it before, Bailey’s website describes this wonderful liqueur as “a perfect marriage of fresh, premium…
White Chocolate & Almond Amaretto Cheesecake
It’s been a long time since I have made a really special dessert. When my husband and I were first married, I use to surprise him with all sorts of sweets that took a good amount of time in the kitchen to make. Now, don’t get me wrong, I make homemade cookies, brownies, cupcakes and…
Old Fashioned Apple Crisp
Well, I just couldn’t wait! As soon as I could get my hands on some fresh apples, I had to make Apple Crisp. It’s one of our family’s favorite desserts and I make it several times throughout the season. Last week my daughter and I went to a beautiful, local Apple Farm and bought some…
Mexican Sundae Cheesecake Bars
Sometimes the perfect dessert is a simple sundae. When I was younger, my brother, sister & I spent a lot of time at my grandparents house. In the summer on a really hot day, my grandfather would make us Mexican Sundaes. As simple as they were, I just loved the taste of the hot fudge…
Red Velvet Cupcakes
Today is my daughter’s 10th birthday and she is so excited to be turning a decade! I, on the other hand, cannot believe she is 10 years old. It seems like just yesterday she was this tiny, round faced little girl who needed me for everything and now she is growing into such a nice…
Fudgy Butterscotch Brownies
I was organizing my baking cupboard yesterday and I found some yummy butterscotch chips that I wanted to use. My children have been asking for brownies all week, so I decided to make butterscotch brownies! Oh my…these are good! If you like butterscotch, you have to try these. These brownies are fudgy and the…
