Warm Cocoa Pudding with Candied Pecans


Chocolate, Gluten Free, Puddings, Recipes

Choooocolate pudding, ah yes.  I have loved chocolate pudding since, gosh, probably since I was one minute old.   Ok yeah, no, my mom did not feed me chocolate pudding as an infant.  Or, not that I’m aware.  Although if she had, she’d have deserved Mom of the Year title.  Well, she does anyway so […]

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 […]

Cocoa Mountain Frosting


Cake, Chocolate, Dairy Free, Frosting, Gluten Free, Recipes

Growing up, birthday cakes were always a big deal in our house.  Or they were to me.  Because baking, heh.  Well ok that and eating the baking.

Energy Balls


Chocolate, Dairy Free, Gluten Free, Recipes, Vegan

When it gets blistering hot out, I lose all desire to bake. Am I alone in this? It’s not just that I don’t want to heat up the kitchen and house (though that IS a major factor), but it’s also that I don’t want to even be near a hot stove when it’s hot. And, […]

So here, here’s what I’ve got for you to use up the rest of that buttermilk I suggested you buy last time for those reeeediculously delicious,  can’t-stop-eatin’-‘em Vanilla Buttermilk Cookies.  Ok, I know, now this one requires an ice cream maker.*  Sigh, I know.  But really though, ice cream makers are not terribly expensive.  If […]

Jammin’ Jam Bars


Apple, Berries, Brownies & Bars, Cookies, Dairy Free, Fruit, Gluten Free, Recipes

The first thing you should know about this recipe is, just like the Vanilla Buttermilk Cookies, these jam bars are hard to stop eating. I mean, you don’t think it’s going to be a problem when you’re making them, but then you’ve let them cool, cut into them, and you’re taking that first bite of […]

Easy Quiche


Breakfast, Dinner, Gluten Free, Pastry, Pie, Recipes, Savory

Quiche is one of my absolute FAVORITE things, and as far as I’m concerned, it’s the perfect food—chock full of protein, fully customizable to your particular tastes, and ridiculously easy. Like why-don’t-I-just-make-this-every-week easy. I mean, you make a pie crust (or buy one, that’s totally okay), prebake it, mix together eggs, milk, cheese, and what-have-you, […]

Lately these days I’m finding I have less and less and less time in a day. I mean c’mon, where the heck does it all go?!  I swear, one minute I’m groggily trying to drag my night owl rear end up for the day and the next I’m back in bed for the night wondering […]
