Dessert for breakfast

By October 8, 2014 Recipes

Planning brunch for a full house this weekend?
You could try pumpkin pancakes but not everyone is fond of fooling with flavour around the holidays.

A better bet to spice up your breakfast is a baked apple. Stuff it with oatmeal, dress it with yogurt and honey and find dessert for breakfast!

Idiot-proof Plum Cake

By September 17, 2014 Recipes

Ice cream season is over.

( Don’t despair. It will be back for Thanksgiving. Creamy vanilla bean scoops work well with pumpkin and apple pie. But I digress).

September around here is a blur so keeping it simple is best with the stone fruit harvest.

Love me my peaches and plums. If you’re nice, I won’t throw my pits at you.
