Quick and Comforting Adzuki Bean Soup
I came up with this recipe when trying to come up with ideas on how to use Adzuki beans. I had never before used them and had only recently had heard of them. I thought though that SOS Kitchen Challenge was the perfect time to try them out! I could only find them canned, …
Sweet Potato (or Pumpkin) Chocolate Chip Muffins
I recently came upon a dilemma. Not a large on of sorts, but a tiny small one…. Mom was making Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins tonight. A favorite in our family, if you remember from this post. But here was my dilemma, I haven’t tested chocolate or pumpkin yet! How was I going to be …
Mom’s Applesauce Muffins
My gluten-free version (also sans raisins) What do you eat on a cold, fall morning? Muffins! What do you eat on a chilly night?

Best Banana Muffins (Grain-Free, Gluten-Free, etc)
Oh my. These are so good. I’ve eaten way too many. Best of all? These are free from any grains at all….gluten-free or otherwise. And?

Fruit Ice-cream—Strawberry Dream
I made this in the Vitamix my aunt has. It was so good and tasted just like ice-cream! I had to share. It’s very simple, but very good. 🙂 I’ll be trying it in my blender (which is good, but not a Vitamix) soon. 1 and 1/2 bananas 1 lb frozen strawberries Mix …
Crust-less Colonial Innkeeper’s Pie
Grandma served this pie (the version with crust, dairy, and sugar) to my mom and her family when she was growing up. They only had it when important or special guest came over. (A picture of Grandma’s version) Mom liked it a lot growing up and so I’ve grown up with it too. …
A Blogger Anniversary & Dark Rich Chocolate Cake
Cakes are made for celebration, right? I mean, of course the most common and enjoyed is birthday cake. Then there’s often graduation cake, valentines day cake (for your sweetheart—or is that only at my house…mom makes a strawberry heart cake every year for dad), congratulations cakes, best wishes cakes (like that employee at …
