If you’ve never tried oatmeal pancakes…I think you should. In my perfectly, un-biased, not-trying-to-talk-you-into-it sort of way. Mind you, oatmeal pancakes by nature are a bit more dense than your average, everyday light-as-a-feather pancake. However, they are very hearty and satisfying with a great nutty flavor. They’re really, really good. Give them a go! As…
Hello Dollies
These are amazing. I say that about pretty much all desserts that I post, but I really only post amazing ones. I try not to post mediocre recipes. What would be the point? Anyone can eat mediocre dinner. Anyway. These are very rich little cookies. They look very elegant, and I’d recommend cutting them into…
Mom’s banana bread
My mom makes the best banana bread of any I’ve ever tasted. It stays moist for DAYS without getting even a little dry. Also, she modifies it sometimes to add half wheat flour and you can’t taste one bit of difference. I find that the wheat flour also magically keeps the bread even more moist….

Evelyn’s Crescent Rolls

No Bake Cookies
I’ve tried a LOT of versions of these cookies. My complaint with most of these is that there’s not enough flavor going on. The Karo syrup versions have great texture, but most of the time, the chocolate flavor is a bit dull. This is–by far–the best no-bake cookie recipe I’ve ever tried. The peanut butter…
ham, basil, and mozzarella stromboli
This recipe is absolutely incredible. The crispy, flaky crust is amazing, but even when you get past the crust, the filling will change your life. Layers of smoked ham, mozzarella and basil pesto make a simple, no-fuss filling with amazing melt-in-your mouth results. If you have access to a bakery (even a grocery store bakery),…
sour cream blueberry pancakes
I have been on the hunt for a good pancake recipe since I came to college, and I tried one this weekend that blew everything else I’ve ever tried out the window. These are the lightest, fluffiest pancakes I’ve been able to make and the flavor was fantastic. I topped the pancakes with fresh strawberries…
