I was browsing around on Strawberry Ginger’s blog and stumbled across her recipe for Root Vegetable & Apple Soup.  My first reaction was Yummy!  Then I got thinking about making my own version of a Butternut Squash Soup.

Peanut Butter Crumb Topping

I have to admit, I don’t always bake from scratch.  It’s not because I don’t want to but we don’t always have the time or all the ingredients needed on hand.  There are those times when you have to cook for a pot luck at work or for your child’s school bake sale, and weeknight baking takes up a lot of time after getting dinner to the table and lunches ready for the next day.

Spicy Bacon

Bacon.  I love bacon.  It is one simple food that is absolutely delicious on its own or enhances any other dish. I would eat it every day if I could, and there are some weeks when we do!  Jamie and I have even baked with bacon (putting it in cookies and muffins) and the results are always outstanding.

Jamie and I spent 6 hours in a car yesterday, and when we got home, I really wanted something sweet and salty.  Well, the best combination to satisfy that craving is made with Peanut Butter and Chocolate.

Spicy Baked Chicken

You are likely expecting another recipe that starts with white flour, milk and some kind of fat (butter/shortening).  Well, we can’t eat like that all the time, no matter how much we would love to, so I thought I would share with you one of my week-night favourites.

Country Tea Biscuits

One of the benefits of growing up in the country is that we never learned of the horrors of white flour and carbohydrates until much later in life 🙂

Farmhouse White Bread

One of my fondest food memories of my Grandma is her Homemade White Bread!  My Grandma used to make dozens of loaves at a time and distribute them among the family.  When I would step off the school bus I could smell the bread from the driveway!  Yummy!  Warm, homemade white bread topped with butter and brown sugar…delicious.  It is also fabulous toasted with butter.
