Glazed Orange Muffins

Remember orange rolls? I’m talking about the ones you can unroll from a tube and bake in 3 minutes. Buttery soft dough and an orange glaze.  Best served the morning after an unintentional all-nighter where you’re devouring The Hunger Games + eating an entire batch of party balls, and your husband is playing Flight Control [...]

There’s definitely batter on the walls and my white sweatshirt is not white anymore. And my camera.  My poor camera. I don’t know how these things happen.  I really don’t.  All I know is that this is one big ol’ plate of cozy pancake yumminess.

Oh my December.  This calls for a muffin or three! Muffins are so lovable that if I make them on Saturday, which I obviously do, always, I will end up eating at least three.  It’s guaranteed.  I am sucker for those little muffies.  Especially if they aren’t actually little. And besides loving muffins, I so [...]

Classic Homemade Applesauce

It’s really hard to forget about this kind of stuff. It’s also hard to forget about these, even though that has nothing to do with apples or Fridays. And as long as we’re going down this road, I’m having a very very hard time not thinking about this show all the time.  It’s borderline obsessive.  [...]

Maple Banana Bread

This weekend, I made burned bread pudding, soupy chocolate pie, and a bowl of cereal instead of a real dinner.
