Strawberry Shortcake (and slightly over-whipped cream) This week’s works for me wednesday post comes from Mike’s family. Apparently this was a little trick his grandmother used to use, and now the whole family uses it. I can’t believe I never thought of this,...

After I professed my dislike of football in my last post, I came up with the idea of trying to make Steeler’s cupcakes. I wanted to go with the black and gold theme and thought it would be perfect with chocolate cupcakes and gold...

It’s time for a little confession. I realize this may get me shunned (especially in my hometown of Pittsburgh!), but….I don’t like football. I don’t like to watch it, I never liked playing football with my friends, I don’t even like playing catch with...

I have great memories of macaroni and cheese. As a kid, most of the time my mom served me the Kraft variety (which I still love…shh…), but on special occasions, my mom went all out and made homemade baked macaroni and cheese. The recipe came from...

I’ve always loved waffles. Every Sunday growing up, our after-church lunch was a weekly rotation of pancakes, waffles or French toast. At least it was supposed to be a rotation. My mom always claimed that French toast and pancakes were easier to make than waffles, so even...

This is a great little tip I learned a few years ago. I’m sure a lot of you already know this, but as I’ve come across a few people recently who hadn’t heard this before, and because I’ve found it so useful, I figured I’d...
