A few weeks ago I entered a giveaway at Hungry Happenings. Time went on and I really didn’t think much more about it. About the same time I also entered a giveaway at Food Stories and did the same. Imagine my surprise when one day I won the Hungry Happenings giveaway and the very next…
Easter
Rainbow Bundt Cake plus bonus Peeps!
This cake is so easy and so pretty! I first saw it on the Betty Crocker website and that recipe said I could find the original cake by Arlene Cummings at Cooks with Sugar. I could find lots of really cool Bundt cakes that are like this but I could NOT find this one. I…
Peeps!
Tonight I am beat! I usually post a recipe on Tuesday nights but I thought it would be fun to see what I did on Saturday afternoon. I love peeps and have always wanted to set up dioramas with them. Top Girl and I put together the Peeps sign above, which took up about 1/4…
Easter Egg Truffles
Tuesday is my son-in-law’s birthday. He loves Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and since I had seen several versions on Pinterest lately, I thought I would make him some. This morning Chef Dennis Littley, who I follow on Google+, posted a recipe from Imperial Sugar that made the truffles look like Easter Eggs. I ALWAYS use…
Bunny Rolls – Only NOT!
I’m a little ticked off right now – a few weeks ago, I saw a picture of the cutest bunny rolls on Facebook with a link to the “original” post. I went to the blog and saw the pictures, quickly read the recipe and determined since I could make them I would pin it and…

Neapolitan Cookies
I love Neapolitan ice cream so I was pretty sure I would like Neapolitan cookies when I saw the recipe on allrecipes. When Mr. Picky Eater saw me preparing the ingredients, he asked what was in Neapolitan cookies. I told him chocolate, nuts, and cherries. His response was to ask if I could substitute something…
Luscious Little Lemon Pies
Remember the dissolution of Hostess? Mr. Picky Eater just loved those Hostess Lemon Pies. Remember my Small Fried Pies? I married the two with the help of a recipe @ Food Lust People Love and made him very happy! First, I made Stacy’s Lemon Curd recipe with these ingredients: LUSCIOUS LITTLE LEMON PIES 2 lemons…
Holiday Leftover Potato Pancakes
There are many “leftovers” recipes floating around the web right now and some of them look delicious. I haven’t posted in over a week so I wanted my first post back to be spectacular! I chose my Nana’s favorite recipe to use……….I guess the holidays make me think of her a lot because she and…
