Mother’s Day is right around the corner and we all love a tasty treat on a special occasion! I enjoy having the special women in my life over for a brunch or dinner, but don’t want to spend all day cooking and baking either. I want to enjoy the day with my family too. This delicious…
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…
Blackberry & Lemon Muffins
I’ve been in a cozy kind of mood lately. Because the weather has been cooler, I have been taking little breaks here and there throughout the day to relax and gather my thoughts.

Blackberries can easily be found at my local grocery store this time of year. I grab a few packages every time I am at the store because my family loves them for a snack and I like to put them on my cereal in the morning. Even though I sit at the breakfast table, staring…
Homemade Lemon Garlic Marinade
If you are looking for a healthy, no additive marinade then this recipe is for you. This homemade marinade is made from basic fresh ingredients you probably have in your house right now. I love marinated chicken & steamed vegetables for a simple week night dinner. The lemon and garlic give chicken a light and…
Raspberry Lemon Scones
This weekend I bought a big bag of juicy lemons to cheer me up and raise my hopes that Spring is right around the corner. We still have flurries in the air, snow on the ground and it looks kind of gloomy, but a girl can be hopeful right? Either way, these Raspberry Lemon Scones…
Blueberry Lemon Cheesecake Muffins
It is no secret I love making muffins for a quick, filling breakfast. Muffins are easy, inexpensive and can be eaten on the go if you are in a hurry. These moist and delicious Blueberry Lemon Cheesecake Muffins are an extra special treat though. The combined flavors of juicy blueberries with a creamy lemon cheesecake…
