Savory Apple and Onion Stuffed Pork Chops

How’s that for a title? If you remember, about a week ago I wrote that I was going to enter a local recipe contest. While I haven’t heard back from anyone yet (and am sort of doubting I will at all), this recipe is one that I submitted – it wins grand prize in my […]

A Little Recipe and a Little MFM Thought

Well, it’s Monday again. How is it that the weekends go by so quickly? I hope your weekend was a splendid one and your Monday is off to a fine start. 🙂 Remember these little cupcakes I shared the other day? Well, I thought today might be a good day to share the recipe with […]

Chicken Noodle Soup

Well, it’s cold and flu season, and I was a victim of it this past week. I had a nasty cold that lasted about a week, and ended with me being pretty miserable over the weekend. The good thing was that I didn’t have too much to do, so I could just laze around and […]

WIAW #30

Hello all! I hope your week is going very well so far! Mine has been going pretty fast, which is nice. Well, sort of. The faster it goes, the closer I get to student teaching (in the fall), which makes me so nervous. Not to mention all I have to do beforehand, like applying. It […]

Homemade Mounds Candy

In recent years, I have really been into the smell, texture, and taste of coconut in baked goods. I’ve found that it goes with many things, but my favorite other food to combine it with is chocolate – of course! 😉 So, when I stumbled across these No-Bake Coconut Crack Bars, yet another fantastic recipe […]

Sea Salted Dark Chocolate Bars

When I stumbled across this recipe the other day on Chocolate Covered Katie‘s blog, I was so excited. First, because it’s chocolate (and who doesn’t get excited about chocolate?), but also because it is free from so many allergens and very clean. Allergy- and New Year’s Resolution-friendly! The chocolate could not have been any easier […]

Molasses Cookies

This is one of my family’s favorite recipes. When Dan and I made them on Friday, they were gone in about twelve hours (if you don’t count the time we were sleeping). My dad and brother love them and wanted me to make them again as soon as the last cookie was gone. They have […]

Recipe Roundup

Hello everyone! I’m only dropping by for a quick post (I still have about 3 essays to do before I’m on break), but I really wanted to share some great recipes with you all. These recipes are not mine, so I’ll just provide the link and any changes that I made. Either way, I hope […]

Christmas Confetti Cookies

All day yesterday I was in a Christmas-y mood. We started putting up our decorations… …and even though there isn’t any snow (not complaining!!!) it’s starting to feel like the holidays! I also had a huge hankering to bake something. Do you ever get like that? Well, I do, especially when I have 5498 essays […]

Apple Cinnamon Breakfast Quinoa

I became a big fan of quinoa for breakfast the moment I tried this Berry Breakfast Quinoa. So, I did some experimenting a few weeks ago. My favorite flavor combination in oatmeal is apple cinnamon, so I decided to make a quinoa version! Apple cinnamon is such a warm, autumnal flavor, and just perfect with […]
