Apricot Scones




Sweet and tangy apricots married to buttery warm scones. Yummy weekend breakfast.

Strawberry Rhubarb Cake







Farmer's market strawberries and garden fresh rhubarb make this cake taste of the last days of summer.

Strawberry Rhubarb Crumble




A friend of ours gave us some rhubarb, fresh from his parents' garden. I had never worked with rhubarb before. Most people make crumble with it and love it for its tangy flavor.

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Roll Cake



Fall means pumpkin flavor. This cake has pumpkin, walnuts, cinnamon and nutmeg in it. The filling is a cream cheese frosting. It was great for afternoon tea.

Pumpkin Hand Pies




Fall has just begun. With it came the cold winds and misty rain. I made these hand pies to warm us up with the flavors of pumpkin, nutmeg and cinnamon. The crust came out really flaky due to dicing the butter and freezing it before hand. Would definitely make this again.

Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream (No Churn)



When we don't eat Tip Top, we make no churn ice cream out of cream and condensed milk. The kids requested mint chocolate chip. To me, it has to be green.

Zucchini Walnut Bread




So many zucchinis and we ran out of muffin liners. No problem. We just put the batter in a 9x13 pan. It baked up great for breakfast. We freezed half of it for later.

Corn Muffins



Thanks to Mom and Dad for bringing a big canister of cornmeal, we are still making cornbread and corn muffins. Tastes great served with chili.
