Well, we finally finished all the apples. I made this German apple cake a few days ago and boy was it good. It’s much different than the last apple cake a made and shared on this blog in that this one is as moist as moist can get. There’s tons of sugar in this one […]

Rich & Creamy Roasted Vegetable Soup Recipe
This is one thick soup. I’m not sure I meant it to be that way, but that’s how it ended up. I love its consistency though. As I was blending it up in the pot last night with my handy hand blender, I had to add water a few times. As it loosened up, I […]
Risotto with Summer Vegetables Recipe
I absolutely love risotto because of its flavor. Whenever I’ve prepared it in the past, I have added a few vegetables and definitely some Parmesan cheese. The recipes I’ve shared on this site have been somewhat tame in that the quantity of vegetables added hasn’t been too great. Today’s risotto recipe, however, takes thing up […]
Cinnamon Sugar Apple Cake Recipe
Ever since we went apple picking, we’ve been trying to use up all of our apples as fast as possible. These things don’t have a good reputation for staying fresh for all that long. The problem is, there’s only so much to do with apples. We’ve already made applesauce and we eat two apples every […]
Bean & Farfalle Pasta Soup Recipe
I made the best soup last night. I’m not even sure what was so great about it, but I can’t stop thinking of it. It was so simple too; it consisted of carrots, onion, celery, beans, tomatoes and farfalle pasta, which look like bow ties. Of course, there were other ingredients that I’m forgetting too. […]
Peach & Blackberry Crisp Dessert Recipe
I knew I’d find something to do with those blackberries we picked over the summer. We’ve got bag after bag of them sitting in the freezer, just waiting to be included in some sort of wonderful dessert. Well, this one used up five cups of berries, but we’ve got so many left. I’m not worried […]
Butternut Squash & Goat Cheese Pizza Recipe
This may have been the most unique and pizza I’ve ever made and eaten. It consists of an entire butternut squash, some mozzarella cheese, goat cheese and an onion, among a few other ingredients. For the crust, I went with a two pounder, not one of those light one pounders. When I make my pizzas […]
Lentil, Apple & Beet Salad with Goat Cheese Recipe
Sometimes I honestly don’t know what I’m going to get with some of these recipes. The photos that accompany them always look so appealing and I wonder how my own photos will come out. Believe me, some haven’t made it. I’ve made some bad mistakes. I try to use the best ones, but a lot […]
Cream of Zucchini Soup Recipe
I think I may have discovered the most delicious way to use up some of our summer zucchinis. Believe it or not, these things are still growing out in the garden. The plants are on their last legs, but I still have a few more fruit to pick. Anyway, the soup recipe I share with […]
Caramelized Onion & Black Olive Thick Crust Pizza Recipe
I made a huge pizza last night that, I must say, was quite delicious. I’m going to call this one a “thick crust” pizza because, for the dough, I used two pounds instead of one. What a difference. I love pizzas that have thick crusts. Back when I was a kid, my friends and I […]
