Pancakes with Real Maple Syrup. Eggs Benedict. Eggs Florentine. Maple Griddle Breakfast Sandwiches. Bacon. Hungry Man’s Breakfast. How is a person to choose what to eat when everything on ...

Land of Nod Cinnamon Buns (AKA 10 minute overnight ooey-gooey cinnamon goodness)
This concept is not foreign – a ‘cheating’ recipe for cinnamon buns – but this recipe, I believe, is the absolute best. Monkey Bread often calls for canned busicuit dough and is prepared first thing in the morning, whereas Land of Nod Cinnamon Buns turn tiny frozen dinner roll balls of dough into heaven in a pan after a night ...

Honey Cinnamon Paneer & Pear Crepes for Meatless Monday
I think that I’ve mentioned that I LOVE eating breakfast for dinner. And for breakfast. And lunch. Maybe even for snacks, too. Screw it. I could eat breakfast all day long, every single day.

Best Waffles Ever: Sneaky “Orange” Carrot Puree Waffles
I stay at home with the kids, and I also usually have at least 1 extra child at the house every day as well. I’m pretty sure that I was sandwiched-out by the time I got to grade 7, and I still don’t count a PB&J or Ham & Cheese Sandwich to be among the most appealing lunches to eat ... Read More »

Valentine’s Day Breakfast: Simple Cinnamon Bun Cake with Cream Cheese Glaze
I know that the ‘thing’ to bring to Superbowl parties is Meat Wrapped in Meat, but I wasn’t really going to watch football, I was going to see Ash & Bloom do a live pre-superbowl and half-time show. So I just searched my Pinterest boards until I found something that looked too tasty to resist and that could be made ... Read More »
Cinnamon Rolls
Who doesn’t love cinnamon rolls? Warm gooey, covered in icing…. This is my mom’s recipe from years ago. She used to make them for each of our teachers at Christmas time. The teachers would joke that they would fail us just so they would get the cinnamon buns again next year! To make the dough, you can either use a ... Read More »
Yummy Apple Recipes
One of the many things that I love about fall is apples. Eating, baking, picking. There are so many apple orchards around us, so we watch the trees go into blossom in the spring, then develop the beautiful red apples. Our boys have been eating “an apple a day” ever since they were small. I also love using this apple ... Read More »
