Caramel Toffee Banana Bread with Caramel Glaze
Like many of you, when I have bananas that are getting too ripe, I like to make banana bread (unless the weather is too hot for baking—then I put the bananas in the freezer and use them for smoothies!). I really like trying out different versions of banana bread, and a caramel-flavored one sounded good!…

Cheddar and Green Onion Cornbread
I remember the first time I had cornbread, in my twenties—there was a soup and salad place I would often eat lunch at that had really good basic cornbread, and I’ve been a fan of it ever since! I was thinking it would be nice to make a savory cornbread with cheese and green onions,…

Ham and Asparagus Quiche
Quiche is one of my favorite breakfast foods and asparagus is one of my favorite vegetables. So of course I had to try this quiche recipe when I saw it at Miz Helen’s Country Cottage! To save time, I was going to use a frozen unbaked pie shell instead of making my own crust. As I…

Pumpkin Scones as good as Starbucks (or maybe even better)
Pumpkin scones are such a treat for fall! I found a recipe at Food.com that I made a few changes to, and I was really happy with how they turned out! I substituted brown sugar for the granulated white sugar, used unbleached flour, and substituted Half and Half (light cream) for the milk in the…

Moving and Hot Ham and Cheese Rolls
I’ve been busy moving these past few weeks, which is why I haven’t been posting much. My little house sold much sooner than I expected (one week, in fact!), so I had to find a rental place really quick! Now I’m in the process of unpacking…I’m not sure which is worse—packing things up, moving them,…

Cheesy Hash Brown Potatoes
My friend Jane Ann made this cheesy potato casserole the other day. Her department was having a special lunch at work, and this was a side dish she made for the meal. So I took some photos of it and then, of course, I had to eat it…couldn’t let any of this creamy potato cheesiness…

Bacon-Green Onion Cream Cheese Spread
This is a really tasty spread that makes a great party appetizer served with crackers. It’s also great spread on bagels for breakfast, brunch or a snack—I really like it on Everything bagels! It’s so easy to make, too…you can whip this up in no time!

Eileen’s Cranberry Almond Breakfast Scones
My artistic friend Eileen made these delicious scones and gave me the recipe (and this wonderful photo she took of them!) so I could share them with you, too! Eileen adapted her recipe from a cranberry scone recipe she found in a cookbook called Scones, Muffins, and Tea Cakes: Breakfast Breads and Teatime Spreads.

Juanita’s Breakfast Bake
I actually had the chance to eat this breakfast casserole twice—the first time was when Juanita made it for our once-a-month snack day at work (I had taken a photo of it which ended up being way out of focus), and the second time was when Juanita’s daughter Ashley made this for breakfast for our…
