This is a very easy cake to make with kids. I made this cake with Rocket and he thought it was really neat to put the cake batter on top of the marshmallows and he loved flipping it upside-down. Using a cake mix makes this really cook cake quick and easy. Give it a try…
Strawberries
Strawberry Santa’s
A Facebook friend of mine from high school sent me a picture last week of little strawberry Santa’s and I just knew I had to make them. I searched the Internet for a tutorial or instructions and didn’t find too much. I honestly could only find 2 other posts with them and only one with…

3 Biscuit Waffle Breakfasts
Together, my husband and I have three children plus a son-in-law (and a grandson on the way): My daughter is 30 as is her husband, my oldest step-son is 25, and my youngest step-son is 22. Occasionally, they will all be here at breakfast time. Cooking breakfast for everyone used to be an incredibly nerve-wracking…
Strawberry, Balsamic Vinegar & Black Pepper Jam
As you know, I have been experimenting with specialty jam recipes in order to write the second Nano-Canning book. The great thing about Nano-Canning is that it takes so little time. About 12:30 CDT Sunday I decided to make the strawberry & black pepper jam while timing myself. I waited until exactly 12:30 to get…
Strawberry Jam…It’s What’s for Breakfast!
It has been a wonderful 3-day weekend but this morning, it is back to work for me! To make the day better, I got up early and fixed bisuits. They are only wamp ’em biscuits, but it’s not like I have figured out how to make home made ones yet……..that’s a Retro Kitchen Art I plan to…
Drambuie Surprise Jam
It is so hot here I do not want to go out and pick any fruit that may be surviving this drought. I put up some strawberries in the freezer back in May. Pulled them out and decided to make a special concoction. Here is the recipe. Drambuie Surprise Jam 12 Cups cleaned…
