Grapefruit Tart

February 23, 2012

To be honest, I am not a grapefruit lover however each and every year, without fail about this time of the year, I’m the recipient of a rather large box of grapefruits as well as oranges. I always scoff down the oranges with rabid appeal. In fact, you saw some of those oranges go to [...]

Mulled Apple Cider

October 13, 2011

After our family outing to Terhune Orchards I obviously had an abundance of apples. So the question became, what to do with all these glorious apples?

September 26, 2011

This week Muffin Monday goes healthy again! I am not a big fan of baked goods with carrots unless it is cake form topped with cream cheese icing so when I saw our assignment was a carrot spice muffin I wasn’t sure I would like it. However, I found myself very pleasantly surprised by just [...]

Orange Honey Ginger Ale

September 22, 2011

I’ve never been a big soda drinker. Sure, if we grab a pizza I might partake but it’s not something I buy for home or something that I let the kids drink. Yet the other day I was thinking about homemade soda and wondering what it might take to make soda at home. This way [...]
