Bringing "back in the day" back to today
Do you crave homemade cinnamon rolls but don’t want to get up at the crack of dawn to pull it off? Plan ahead and make the dough for this pull apart bread the night before and you can enjoy all of the sticky, sweet goodness of cinnamon rolls in a warm, gooey mound that will …
Our youngest daughter has a new, unhealthy obsession with donuts. For the last few weeks, she starts begging for donuts as soon as she wakes up. While we do have a Dunkin’ Donuts within walking distance of our house, their donuts are typically stale and leave me a with tummy ache. So while my child was …
Bacon. Let me say that again, BACON! There are so many uses for bacon, goes great on a English muffin with eggs and cheese, it is the essential beginning to pasta carbonara and it’s great to carry around in a baggie in your pockets….maybe not quite that last part, but it’s a crucial component to …
It’s pretty well established that I am a huge fan of breakfast. Eggs Benedict, hash and eggs, french toast or pancakes with bacon or sausage: sign me up! We had sausage gravy with biscuits for dinner on Friday and then bacon gravy with biscuits for breakfast on Saturday. Needless to say, on this Sunday morning …
Doughnuts, who doesn’t love them? I know that they are pretty popular around our house. I have written about them in the past; check out this post about baked chocolate glazed doughnuts. In that post I had intended to buy a real doughnut pan, I finally did and it worked great! I have been craving …

Breakfast has been seriously lacking around here since we gave store bought bread products the ole heave ho. This weekend I had decided that my usual breakfast of yogurt, fruit and granola wasn’t going to cut it. I was about to set out on a 9 mile run and I wanted to return to a greasy bacon, egg …
Lately I have been enjoying yogurt with granola for breakfast pretty much every day. My granola of choice has been Bear Naked Vanilla Almond Crunch. It seems good enough, has no high fructose corn syrup or anything like that, but the ingredients list seems a bit longer than I would like. Plus, when one is …
I don’t eat a lot of donuts, normally. For some reason when I woke up this morning I really had a craving for them. Usually on these occasions I would have two options, go to one of the two Dunkin Donuts stores within a couple miles of the house, or to go to this great …
These strawberry lemon breakfast muffins were not my favorite, but since my 3 year old ate three of them so far today I thought that I’d ask her what to write about them. Me: “Tell me about your muffin.” K: “You take pictures of them.” Me: “How do they taste?” K: “Good. They my favorite …
