orange and white chocolate muffins recipe

It is dark and stormy outside. Lots of thunder and lightening. It is the perfect day to stay inside in your jammies and watch movies. I am fairly incapable of concentrating on anything else because I am watching Season 2 of Downton Abbey on my iPad. I am so into this show, I love everything about it. Of course, the fact that it is British, doesn't hurt. The costumes are perfection, the characters strong, and I love the grandmother. The stuff that comes out her mouth is nothing short of amazing. … [Read more...]

Pecan Sticky Buns

the best sticky bun recipe ever

This Pecan Sticky Bun recipe is one of the most insanely delicious things that I have ever made in my entire life.  Those are some serious words, I do not take them lightly.  I had half of a batch of my No Knead Challah Dough leftover and usually,I would make cinnamon rolls with them.  Cinnamon rolls are the one thing all of my children love, the one thing that they all agree on as a treat.  I saw the recipe for Flour's Sticky Buns on the Food Network and instead of using brioche like they … [Read more...]

This recipe is a recipe that I have made over and over again, and every time, I fall in love with it even more.  I found this recipe in the cookbook, Heartland: The Cookbook (which is one of my favorite cookbooks and has become a go-to in my kitchen), and it is so versatile and easy to make.  The beauty of this recipe is that it does not require any kneading, and the dough can keep for 3 days in the refrigerator.  I can make the dough in about 5 minutes, let it rise for a few hours, and from … [Read more...]

land o lakes eggs baked in bread bowls

Remember when the nice people at Land o' Lakes gave me some Cinnamon Sugar Butter Spread, and I made those glorious Quick and Easy Cinnamon Butter Buns?  They were nice enough to ask me to use another one of their premium products to make a new recipe.  This time, they asked me to use eggs from their premium egg product line.  I make it a point to buy the best eggs that I can for my family.  I use them in so many of my recipes, that I make sure to use eggs that are of the best quality … [Read more...]

the best pumpkin bread recipe

It has been a wonderful weekend, but I am so tired, I can barely see straight.  It was a long week.  On Monday, I went to have some tests done (I am perfectly healthy, thank you for asking), but anesthesia and I are not friends.  I have only ever gone under one time before and it hits me hard.  It took a few days to not feel hungover, and not the best way to start a busy week.  I spent a lot of time in my son and daughter's classroom this week, which is so much fun, but it seemed like I … [Read more...]
