Dulce de Leche Overnight French Toast
Hello, my name is Sarah and I am addicted to overnight French toast. But I want you to know that I’ve made an important breakthrough in my overnight French toast addiction — I’ve stepped beyond the confines of my very favorite Overnight Creme Brulee French Toast. (Note to my family — don’t worry, I won’t stop [...]
Turn Up Your Deviled Eggs
Easter is this Sunday. Like, whoa. It seems so early to have Easter arrive, but here it is. And it’s time to start thinking Easter menus. Mine is typically pretty similar year to year — Overnight Creme Brulee French Toast, spiral ham, an egg dish … But the first two are the ones that everyone [...]
Spring Kitchen Makeover with World Market
This morning, I woke up with that peculiar ache in my nose that signals the onset of spring. Of course, someone should clue Mother Nature in because it’s still way too cold out there.

Sauteed Leeks with Bacon and Lentils
On New Year’s Day, I wanted to fill our table with as many lucky foods as possible — including the Banana Cornbread and this rich, delicious lentil dish. We could definitely use a little luck as we head into 2013 — it has to be a better year. And so far, it’s been mostly good. [...]
Chocolate Peanut Butter Holiday Cookie Pops
The kids have been excitedly preparing for their special holiday concert. Every night, Will has closed the door to his room and practiced the songs he’d be singing with his class. It was so sweet — especially when he worried this morning that he didn’t practice enough (don’t worry — he did). But here’s the [...]
Thanksgiving Leftovers: 30 Recipes for Revamping Your Leftovers
Hope you had a wonderful, happy and delicious Thanksgiving yesterday! Ours was just perfect — filled with family, ridiculous amounts of food and our favorite traditions (like going around the table and all saying what we’re thankful for).
