Easy Broccoli Quiche
It has taken me years – years - to get to a point where I consistently make the effort to eat breakfast. The morning meal and I have just never been bosom buds. In the mornings, I am not really that into cooking. I just to burn everything I tried to cook before noontime (fortunately, [...]
Ultimate Cheddar Biscuits
Things change. People change. A friend said that to me years ago, and it’s incredibly true. We spend our lives growing and changing and adapting. Developing cooking skills is a lot like growing up. You start off uncertain and overcompensating and try to find your niche. It’s a lot of trial and error, often with [...]
Blueberry and White Chocolate Buttermilk Pancakes
It’s been a great big pancake fest in our house over the past few days. After Paige got sick last week, Will caught a touch of sickness too … but then they both snapped out of it, all they wanted was copious amounts of ultra-fluffy, sweet, delectable pancakes. My pancakes. The special pancakes that Will [...]
Cranberry Coffeecake
Christmas is two days away. My presents aren’t wrapped, my house isn’t clean enough yet. I have scores of baking left to do too. It’s going to be a frantic Wednesday, I will tell you that much. Are you making any cranberry sauce or conserve this week? If so, keep this in mind when you [...]

Easy Spinach Frittata
For a few years now, I’ve had this fascination with frittatas. Convinced that they would be too thick, too dense, too eggy and so on, I swore I would never make one. Yet, I coveted every photo that my fellow food bloggers snapped of the interesting egg dish. Finally, in search of an easy breakfast [...]
Maple Roasted Bacon
The first time I made this bacon, we liked it. But it wasn’t an all out, geez we have to do THIS again recipe. So, I didn’t make it again . . . until recently. I had some extra bacon to use up and didn’t want to make a holy mess. The thing is, my [...]
Breakfast on the Go: Asparagus Swiss Mini Frittatas
Today is my first day back to work after maternity leave. I had to drop my two cute little kids off to daycare and drive an hour to work. Now, don’t get me wrong, I love my job. But I don’t think it’s ever easy for a parent to leave their children. Well, at least [...]
Don’t Knock It Till You’ve Tried It: Quick Ham and Cheese Quiche
Me: I’m thinking of making a quiche with the leftover ham for breakfast tomorrow. Shawn: A quiche? (crinkles nose) Am I even going to like that? Me: I don’t see why you wouldn’t. It’s just eggs, ham and cheese. Shawn: That’s all? Me: Yes, that’s it. I can’t believe you’ve never had one before [...]
