As I stated in the blog entry about the ginger snaps, I’ve really been loving the flavors of gingerbread this holiday season. So when I decided to make some granola to give to friends and family members, I decided a gingerbread-flavored granola sounded yummy! While the granola base was baking in the oven, I was…

This year I’ve loved the flavors of gingerbread. I love the taste of the mixture of molasses, cloves, ginger, and cinnamon. So when I was going to bake some cookies for my husband for a cookie exchange, I decided to make some ginger snaps with those flavors. These ended up being delicious!!!! :) (I think…

I love chocolate chip cookies. Actually, I like most cookies. You might say cookies are my weakness! I mean dessert weakness. This dip reminds me of a chocolate chip cookie. Best of all, you don’t have to bake cookies to get deliciousness. :) Now the question is, what should I dip into this yumminess! I’ve…

Mmm! Comfort food makes you feel good inside. Pot roast is one of those foods. As I was coming up with this week’s menu, I decided pot roast should be one of our dinners. The interesting thing was we had a pot roast for our dinner at my in-law’s last night. The difference was how…

I’m so proud of myself. Today we were given a chance to go apple picking at one of our fellow church member’s houses. We could take as much as we wanted, which is totally cool. The Imaginative One is a fussy eater but loves his apples and applesauce. So I jumped at the chance. We…
