Easter

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 [...]

Asparagus, Tomato and Artichoke Pasta Salad

April 8, 2013

Oh, I love a good Italian style pasta salad. Fresh tomatoes, asparagus, olives, red onion, marinated artichoke hearts and parmesan cheese…all tossed together with pasta and a flavorful dressing. You could even add some shredded chicken and turn this lovely salad into a meal! Then please invite me over, won’t you? I could eat this [...]

Carrot Sheet Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

March 27, 2013

Do you love a good slice of Carrot Cake? Boy, I sure do. I love a good Carrot Cake, and have been making it for many years. I usually make it in two round 9 inch cake pans, and then stack and frost them as beautifully as my time will allow. You can see that recipe here. [...]

Stuffed Pork Loin

March 25, 2013

I have recipe a little bit out of the ordinary and extra special for you all today. Because Easter is approaching, and because I don’t have a lot of “fancy dinner” recipes in my archives. Which is due to very simple fact that I am the Mom to many children who need more from me than a “fancy [...]

Easter Brunch/Easter Dinner Recipes

March 18, 2013

Would you agree, that this is a glorious time of year? I love the fresh sunshine, little kids riding their bikes and frolicking about in the front yard, tulips poking their stems out of the cold ground, blue sky (something of a novelty after a smoggy winter here in SLC), birds chirping outside my window [...]

Spring Bon Bon Pops

April 4, 2012

A little something fun AND cute AND tasty for you today, my friends. Because I know some of you like to make fun things when a holiday is approaching. These bon bon pops are a little bit different than the cake pops that are so popular these days. The filling is made with crushed oreos [...]

Orange Glazed Ham with Mustard Sauce

December 21, 2011

Pin It Well, well, well. I baked up some ham for you all today. Do you like ham? How about a lovely Orange Glazed Ham, or would you prefer Green Eggs and Ham? I really hope you choose the orange variety… because I don’t have any idea how to make Green Eggs and Ham. And [...]

Butterflake Frozen Roll Dough

November 16, 2011

Last year during November I recieved a lot of emails and comments full of ROLL questions. How could a person make them on Thanksgiving Day without taking up so much TIME and oven space, would they be good made the day before, would it be possible to freeze the dough and would it be possible [...]

April 18, 2011

Well now. Who’d a thunk. It looks like Spring is going to join us after all! I have seen green lawns poking up everywhere and heard birds chirping out side my window. Bright colored tulips and daffodils are popping up all around. (It’s true. This is no joke.) I have even watched short little boys [...]
