French Onion Soup

No one was more surprised than I was, when the first time I tried French Onion Soup, I fell in love. You see, for the most part, I HATE onions. I cook with them a lot, because they are the base for so many great recipes, and add great flavor. I love chopping them up, [...]

Cavendish From The Farm: french fry addict approved

If you know much about me, you probably already know that I have a slight french fry addiction. This is a love that goes back to my toddler years, and has been carried with me well into adulthood and even been passed on to Miss Marley. I mean, what’s not to love about a great [...]

Chocolate Peanut Butter Corn Flake Balls

Can you say that 10 times fast? Do I have your attention? These things are AMAZING. I made 3 dozen of them for the day my family photos were done, and the entire batch was GONE before the session was even over. Try them, devour them, thank me later. Ingredients: 1 cup sugar 1 cup [...]

Homemade Granola Bars

I have been on a mission lately to cut out as much processed, junky food from our diet as possible. I began to notice how much of it we were eating, purely out of convenience, and I decided enough was enough. I pride myself on my cooking skills, taking time and care to make home [...]

Lemon Pound Cake With Cream Cheese Frosting (YUM)

I’ll give you a minute to wrap your head around that delicious title. While I do? I’ll stuff a couple more mouthfuls of this cake into my mouth. Generally speaking, I do not have much of a sweet tooth, I tend to snack on salty snacks instead. Miss Vicki’s Sea Salt and Vinegar chips? YES [...]

My (Banana) Muffins Bring All The People To My Yard

By now you should be acquainted with my love of all things food, and if you are not? Perhaps you should click onto my ‘Foodie’ tap up there ^^^. One of my long time favorite recipes, and one of Marley’s favorite snacks has been banana muffins. A very good family friend taught me this recipe [...]

Jazzing Up Pre-Made Soup

As I type this, I am literally sitting in my bed with kleenex stuffed up both nostrils and a heating pad against my ear. I’ll give you a second to appreciate how attractive that is… Anyway, yes, both Marley and I are sick with ear and sinus infections. Don’t even ask  me how that happens [...]

I Have a Cupcake Addiction

No, really. I do, and I am coming forth with it. You see, the problem really became an isse when this amazing little cupcake store opened up 2 blocks away from me, Cupids Cupcakes. As in they are within walking distance, or if I’m feeling lazier than usual, I could drive there. (yes, I may [...]

How To Get Your Toddler To Eat

If you have a toddler, you know exactly how hard it can be to entice them into finishing a full (never mind nutritious) meal. I’m fairly sure they Egyptians build pyramids faster than the amount of time it takes for the average toddler to make it through a meal. I can say this as a [...]

The Best Beef Stew Ever

I have been making this stew, and variations of it for years. I couldn’t possibly pinpoint the original recipe, I can only say that it has been toyed with and changed through the years to my liking, and I am in l-o-v-e with it. This is my go-to dinner for dreary, cold fall/winter/spring nights, when [...]
