Pumpkin & Pomegranate

I was in dire need of more breakfast breads. Well dire is a bit extreme, but yes I wanted some. I just got some strawberries from a groupon for SPUD so they seemed like the perfect thing to stick in a muffin. By the way, have I mentioned how much I love groupon? That site [...]

I have had bread on the brain lately, and this banana bread was something I lay in bed dreaming about on Sunday morning. I mulled over it for a while and then dragged myself out of the cozy warmth donated to me by two sweet feline bodies, and got to work. I thought about having [...]

These were pretty fab, and made enough to that I had leftovers for breakfast the next day. plan was for me to sleep in a little late, and then grab my pancakes and get to work. Unfortunately I came down with a bad case of the allergies, or a head cold. not sure which, but [...]

I apologize for the lack of blog entries recently. There have been some things going on in my personal life that have been taking up my time, but I am working on producing more blogs of interest!
The past few days I have had quinoa flakes for breakfast. I miss oatmeal, and since the mornings have [...]

A second try at pumpkin pancakes gave us fabulous results! While Matt admittedly prefers “real” pancakes, I am just overjoyed to be able to eat something that is SO close to what I grew up with.
