Tried and True Recipes any time any day…
This Crack Dip, aka Pumpkin Dip, is one recipe that helps me get through fall without becoming too depressed since I know that winter is on the way. If you read my last post (which I am sure you did) you know that I am not really a fan of fall. This dip accidentally became […]
I have always thought that banana foster looked delicious. Many of the recipes I have seen for this dessert call for dark rum and sometimes banana liqueur to be added and then lit on fire. I am sure it makes for an impressive display, but I don’t keep rum or banana liqueur on hand and am too […]
In America, churches are abundant. In the south, where I grew up, there seems to be a church on every corner. Before moving to Italy, I wondered what type of church we would find. I was very surprised and relieved to find a thriving protestant chapel community on base. I grew up Southern Baptist and have always attended SB […]

Number one, they are expensive and number two, they contain way too many preservatives as well as lots of sugar […]
My husband has been bugging me for weeks to make these $100,000 cinnamon rolls to take to work. I made them several months ago and his coworkers loved them. I have sent several baked goods with him to work, but the cinnamon rolls have been the biggest hit. I even entered them in a silent auction for a charity fundraiser and they sold for […]
