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…

So last week, I had my blender cup washed after making a smoothie. The Wee One and the Imaginative One put away the dishes after the dishwasher was finished.

For a long time, I had wanted to try Larabars but was afraid because I didn’t know how they would like it because of the dates. Once I finally tried one of the bars, I decided it was not as bad as I thought it would be. This past weekend, I picked my first container…

My two love French toast cooked by Moi instead of from the freezer section. The Imaginative One gets a headache with store-bought French toast/sticks. French toast is simple to make, and you can try various loaves of bread. I usually use sandwich bread, or if I want to make sticks, I’ll use Texas toast bread…

Last weekend, I was perusing Pinterest looking for Mason Jar salad recipes. On one of the sites, I saw a suggestion that you could do the same sort of thing with fruit minus the dressing. I was intrigued, so I decided to try it. I put those fruit salads together on Saturday afternoon, and they were still as…

I’ve mentioned how much I like a local Farmer’s Market called Second Street Market. One of the vendors has a delicious granola called Triple Treat Granola. It contains walnuts, cranberries, and melted white chocolate. I sent a container to my May and one to my June foodie pen pals. Both of them loved the granola:).…
