Breakfast Granola Cookies
I can’t believe I am inside baking!!! The girls are out in the wading pool for the first time, and we have opened the windows and turned on the whole-house fan. It’s not quite yet a million degrees in here, and certainly doesn’t feel anything like it does in late August when we are canning, … Read more
Oatmeal Raisin Muffins
I finally made muffins on a Monday again, after months of thinking about it and not doing it. Why I can’t stick with this is beyond me! It does make life easier. Clearly, I need to make myself a file of only muffin recipes! These made enough for us to have as part of breakfast … Read more
Cut-out Biscuits
Mmmm these are absolutely as delicious as they look AND the dough is really fun to play with- like “real” dough! They are a tad bit more crumbly than biscuits that contain gluten, but VERY satisfying! We have been making these for a few months now, and each time I change a thing or two, … Read more

Quiche Quiche

And as a bonus (this is turning into an infomercial!,) they are freeze-able as well. Both girls loved these, and Goose requested more tomorrow with … Read more
Bread and Butter
Unintentionally continuing my comfort food theme The girls were crabby today. It was one of those days: hot, boring, house a mess, errands that needed run… you know the kind. The kind where it seems like you can’t get out the door and get what needs done, done. Toddler has to potty, then someone is … Read more
Cereal
I’ve been craving cereal. I have never been a big cereal eater, so I’m not sure why this is, but in any case, I have been making do for a few days with toasted pecans and sliced banana in milk. I wanted to try to make actual cereal though, but not the peanut butter grain-free … Read more
Thinking outside the slice (of bread)
Eggs. Yep, that’s right: eggs. Twig is sensitive to them (they upset his stomach,) but the rest of us can have them, and BOY HOWDY, are we having them! Scrambled, omelets, in hashes, whipped whites for cookies, in salads… the list goes on and on. I keep dreaming of things to do with them now. … Read more
