Oreo Cookies and Cream Cookies

May 1, 2013

Several weeks ago I went to lunch with a few friends from my high school days. I love getting together with them. I think we always end up laughing more than we actually talk or eat. Which is heavenly, if you ask me. I need a good laugh every now and then, you know. It [...]

Soft, Frosted Lemon Sugar Cookies

April 10, 2013

I love lemons. I love limes. I love oranges. I suppose you could say, I am a girl with a need for a little bit of citrus in her life. Especially when Spring shines her pretty (and sometimes RAINY) face around town, I get to craving everything lemon. These Lemon Cream Cheese Tarts, and these [...]

Classic Peanut Butter Cookies

February 22, 2013

Do you sometimes feel as though your life is just one stack of dirty dishes after another. I know some of you love to cook while others of you just HAVE to cook because you are the mother or father of small people who happen to get hungry daily. Like, three times a daily. Weather you [...]

Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

October 17, 2012

To say that these Pumpkin Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies are good, would be the understatement of the grand universe. They are soft, moist, loaded with oats, chocolate and fall time pumpkin flavor. My dear friend Julie sent me the recipe last week, and I have to admit to making them twice in the past few days. They are simple [...]

Pumpkin Whoopie Pies with Cream Cheese Filling

Hey there. Before we talk about Pumpkin and Cream Cheese Filling, I had a little something I wanted to tell you. The thing is, I have a really great niece named Belle. She’s 14 years old, sweet and darling and kind. Everything an Aunt could ask for in a niece, really. Not only is the sweet thing as pleasant as a [...]

Boy howdy, do I have a beauty of a recipe for you today. Not only do these Fruit Tart Cookies look lovely, they taste like absolute heaven. What does heaven taste like, you might be wondering?

And then yesterday morning, the sky clouded over. [...]
