This re-post is one of my very earliest ones when S&C had virtually four followers; my niece, Lindsey, my parents and my daughter, Zoie.

My very favorite thing I love about baking is creating something new. Not new to the world mind you…I don’t know if there’s anything that really hasn’t been done…but new to me. My own invention. I love playing mad scientist with my spices, extracts and various fruits in season.

Yes, I have been M.I.A. If you were to look for me, it would have been rather easy to spot me. I have been the one holed up in my home office either typing twenty-six essays for my daughter’s humongous History project or as I fondly refer to it…the “F’in History project”, OR I was [...]

These bright and cheery low-fat Strawberry Lemonade biscuits, which I served up with local orange blossom honey and a slab of melted, dripping butter, were just the ticket to a “we have to stay home and study AP US History” kind of Sunday.

After a 10 hour excursion to the movies Saturday, I woke up on Sunday feeling like I owed my family a great big “Thank you” for letting me go AWOL. I was sure making a good, stick-to-your-ribs Sunday breakfast was a nice way to start. I was thinking hashbrowns, bacon and eggs but maybe not [...]
