My kitchen has a whole cupboard dedicated to tea and vessels from which to drink it. Sometimes, I get a box of something thinking it’s going to be the best thing ever, but then I make a cup and never want to see it ever again. Mostly, that happens with spice teas. You’d think that

Ages ago, I made a recipe on here for beer bread. In the four years since, I’ve acquired a taste for the beverage itself, and despite the fact that this recipe is one of the easiest ones in the history of baking bread, I haven’t really made it very often. Necessity dictated that I needed

I’ve got a backyard garden growing this year, and it’s that time in the summer when I’m picking almost more than I can use. Currently, my jalapeno plant seems to be playing a game of how many peppers can it grow at once. I’ll try to space them out a bit, but be prepared for

I’ve had my sourdough starter for a couple of months now, and I’m looking for a change from our delicious banana bread (mostly because I’m out of bananas this time around, and Hubby wants his morning slice of homemade bread). I’m sure my bread machine is feeling a little left out since we started making

Chili, as I say every time I upload a new recipe for some, is one of my go-to meals. There are at least five different recipes for various styles of chili on this blog, and in five more years, I’m sure that number will at least double. I cannot be stopped. This time, though, I’m

This is another recipe originally from King Arthur Flour. I modified it based on what I had around the house at the time, and the end result was a delicious batch of muffins just sweet enough to enjoy without feeling like you’re starting your day with a load of sugar. These would make great giant

I’ve posted a couple of different pizza recipes on here before, including a post about how to do the basics, but this particular pizza was so good, I felt that it warranted its own post! You can make it spicy with hot sauce if you want, or you can keep it traditional. Either way, once

Late one night, Hubby and I decided we wanted peanut butter cookies. I didn’t feel like dealing with refrigeration, shaping, and all that other work that comes with cookies. So I took the lazy route and I made some dough instead. What’s better, I use banana in place of butter (you can sub the same
