Ok, I know I’ve already written about making gingerbread making houses this year. But this year we happened to have THREE ROUNDS of it. And this one really does merit a post of it’s own I have to say, so bear with me. Because this little professional gingerbread-making workshop my friend set up one night…
I want to share my friend Shelley’s everyday flatbread recipe. I originally posted this recipe in December of 2012, but wanted to update with the “real” recipe format. Shelley gave me this recipe way back in my first baby days. Days when a group of us young moms would get together for lunch at each…
My parents don’t slow down. They are always on the go. Which makes me happy since sometimes that “go” is to visit us here in the desert. Especially in the winter when it’s tennis season down here (my dad had a tournament). We took advantage of that little good fortune and had a gingerbread house…
Welp, I thought I had the home-made bread dealio down with this recipe I love back HERE. It is easy and foolproof and we love it. But then I tasted Barbi’s bread. Yow. You guys, it is dreamy good. Barbi is a lady in our church congregation for those who are wondering who this wondrous…
I have used the same banana bread recipe for years. And the fact I have kept to it must mean it’s pretty good, right? But yesterday I came across a new recipe on Instagram that I fell in love with. Is anyone else with me in being a sucker for some of the things that…
A few months ago Lucy determined that “bread” is not part of the dessert or candy category (things she decided to give up for 2020), and fell in love with pumpkin bread. It is interesting (and tough) to try to teach Lucy where things are in the kitchen. I feel like we need some sort…
Speaking of gingerbread houses (last post), let’s go back to a time when I was a good Christmas mom (I have been far from that this last little while…) and we made them together for FHE. But I can’t take any credit for these suckers because Lucy was the one who made it a point…
Let’s take a minute amidst the chaos and write about home-made crusty bread. Because bread is salve for the soul, don’t you think? There are so many things going on around here I feel compelled to write about, thank goodness my sisters and I have a little “three-line” thing going back and forth to each…
First of all, HAPPY NEW YEAR! Oh how I love new beginnings. But I’m not really ready for the “new beginning” that is going to hit us like a truck tomorrow morning when our alarm clocks knock us into reality! Yikes. Every single person in our family slept until ten o’clock yesterday…
