Chocolate Sheet Cake
Below is my very best go-to chocolate cake recipe. Chocolate Sheet Cake. It is the recipe that my childhood best friend’s mom made all the time. I loved that cake. First, let me tell you what got me thinking about posting this recipe. Do you remember trick or treating? I do and it…
Homemade Gingerbread
I had a little help making this homemade gingerbread from Rocket. He’s very proud of his efforts today because I allowed him to break the egg and even use the hand mixer. He is also very tired from all the work and could barely keep his eyes open for the photo. He is sound asleep…
Banana Cake with Cream Cheese Icing
I am bringing you a fantastically scrumptious homemade banana cake with butter and cream cheese icing. At least I hope that’s what you will read!

I am so excited to share this post with you! First of all, #Jellyismyjam is the hashtag that Oklahoma Agritourism is using to promote its Jelly Making Trail Campaign.

Easy Moist Chocolate Poke Cake
This weekend was both Easter and my Son-in-law’s birthday. At the same time, I have been worried about my half-sister who has been in the hospital for a heart ailment that we both inherited from our in-common father. She is about 20 years old than me and so I’ve been distracted by the seriousness of…
Carrot Muffins for Muffin Monday
This month’s Muffin Monday challenge was to work with an ingredient you’ve never worked with before so I made Carrot Muffins. I chose “healthy” – I know it’s kind of funny but I have never really worked on a purely healthy recipe before but I had several incentives: First, Mr. Picky Eater’s new boss lady…
Lemon Blueberry Impossible Pie
It has been a while hasn’t it? Sorry, life got in the way but this Lemon Blueberry Impossible Pie will MORE than make up for it, I promise! How many of you like a good pie but either can’t or don’t have the time to make a pie crust? Most times, when I want to…
