Our cooking club is still making an effort to meet once a month (sometimes once every 6 weeks) to try new recipes together and enjoy amazing food. This month we did breakfast for dinner (brenner, as some call it). And mmmmm delicious! Thanks so much to Lara for hosting, the food was fabulous. Here are [...]

Smitten by Pancakes
Posted in breakfast on August 22, 2008 | 2 Comments »
I have not been doing anything impressive in our kitchen recently, lots of baking cookies and heating up frozen pizza. Just can’t seem to get motivated to make big meals anymore! Last night I tried a new recipe for pancakes, since the box of Hungry Jack mix leaves something to be desired! [...]
TWD alternate recipe: Orange Berry Muffins
Posted in Tuesdays with Dorie, breads, breakfast on May 20, 2008 | 18 Comments »
Tara from Smells Like Home chose this week’s recipe for TWD. As intrigued as I was to try my hand at madeleines, I knew our tiny kitchen could not hold yet another pan, so I took the offered out and made a recipe that had previously been made for TWD before I joined. [...]
Broccoli-Cheddar Quiche…revisted

I’m revisiting another recipe that I’ve made before. I’ve calculated the WW points using e-tools and taken some new pictures. It was a quick and easy dinner for a Thursday night (Office night!!) and I served it with spinach salad with warm bacon dressing. Best part was I got to use one [...]
Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins

Well I just couldn’t wait to try another Dorie recipe! The first one I bookmarked in my new cookbook was this recipe for lemon poppy seed muffins with a tasty looking icing. It didn’t take long at all to whip up a batch and they are SO GOOD. They are the perfect [...]
Pancake Dinner

When we look in our fridge and don’t see anything that would make a full meal or we’re just feeling tired and want something easy, we know it’s pancake night. Saturday night I didn’t get back from work and the grocery store early enough to make chili as planned, so it was definitely a pancake [...]
The incredible egg
Posted in breakfast on December 17, 2007 | 1 Comment »
I didn’t eat eggs growing up, in fact the first time I remember having eggs in any form was when I was 15 and staying at a ski lodge where amazing breakfasts were served up every morning. The omelets looked so good I just had to try it. When I was a baby [...]
Breakfast Time

I had ambitious plans for our Saturday morning breakfast. My original plan was to make crepes (saw a great recipe in Cooking Light) and some sort of egg bake. I lost steam though and knew the egg bake would be filling so I just made that instead. I modified the recipe that [...]
A no shop dinner

Well it’s almost the end of the month and I’m pushing it as far as keeping within our grocery budget (but we were still restocking our pantry from our move…at least that’s one excuse!) So I’m trying to cook with what we have and do minimal grocery shopping. I will of course go [...]
Breakfast Anytime

Well now that we are settled into our new place and I am officially unemployed it is time to try out some new recipes in between job applications! I had definitely gotten into a rut and now that I’ve been unable to cook/bake for the last month due to our vacation and the move [...]
