I didn’t plan on having a craving for cinnamon rolls this morning. If I knew it would have been coming on, I might have got a yeast dough together last night to be ready to bake this morning. But it just happened as I was coming down the stairs thinking about scrambled eggs and bacon… Read More Craving | Fastest Cinnamon Rolls
There’s something about Mexican food lately. I’m just loving the spices and the fats and the flavors and the family feel of the meals. This morning, since we had so many ingredients of Mexican origin in the fridge, I decided to do a take on huevos rancheros.

I used whole wheat flour from Flying J Farm, home churned butter, Holistic Acres eggs… Read More Real Buttermilk Pancakes
Cherub likes a good breakfast. This morning, since it’s gotten a little chilly, I served her some hot cereal. I couldn’t find local oatmeal, so rolled spelt, from Stutzman Farm made an even exchange. You can find Stutzman products at the Greener Grocer. It cooks pretty much like oatmeal, two parts liquid (milk, local apple cider, water, etc.) to… Read More Apple-licious Breakfast
