Pucker up, pals! It’s Lemon Bar day! Pucker up further, these are easy peasy lemon haha squeezy and loaded, loaded I say, with happy lemony goodness. Honestly, I never thought it possible to find a good lemon bar. Or, I should rephrase — I had yet to find a truly tasty, truly lemony, not […]
Not long ago, if you follow us on Instagram which you should because we on occasion drop a stellar recipe that’s not on the blog (did you see Jen’s a bit ago? Mmm!! I can vouch for that shortbread)….but, if you follow us, you’d know I had a major major fail. And confessed, fessed up. Like […]

Ooooooooh glorious apple season. The joyous gift that keeps on giving! Such as this Apple Mosaic Tart! Oh but did you see Jen’s Crock Pot Applesauce?! What’s better than homemade applesauce, amiright?! Ok, don’t be intimidated by this apple tart though. It does look uber fancy and may give an air of unachievable but in […]

Yeah, one a’ those. “Babe, but doesn’t everyone love fall?” Mike asked of me as I was lamenting impending cold weather. “Sure, lots of folks love fall and that’s great but I’m not one of them.” Getting all fatalistic I continued, “that means winter […]
