The first time I ever tasted these gems was at a neighborhood summer potluck! I thought they were delicious and asked my friend Joann what the recipe was. She got this “guilty” look on her face and said, “Would you believe a jar of chili sauce, a jar of grape jelly, and a bag of … Read more
Awhile back I posted about Mississippi Comeback Sauce and how it apparently goes with everything….except Cheerios. When I read the ingredients it reminded me an awful lot of what we in Utah refer to as Fry Sauce. If you have ever been to Utah and ordered french fries at a restaurant…you are probably acquainted with … Read more
I love it when I find a gluten-free treat that doesn’t taste gluten-free! It’s so nice not to have to make multiple desserts for my family.

I know she’s had loads of … Read more
One of the greatest things about fall, in my opinion, is the abundance of crisp, delicious apples that appear in the markets. Many people may sing the praises of pumpkin as a fall baking staple, but I’m firmly on the side of Team Apple. The scent of an apple pie, crisp, or crumble baking in … Read more
Potato chips are the #1 snack food in America! Believe it or not, we eat 1.2 billion pounds a year! That’s a whole lotta chips….or “crisps” as they are often referred to over the pond.

The most popular variety being peanut butter and jelly. I remember thinking at the time … Read more
Have I ever mentioned how much I really, really LIKE cinnamon and sugar? It’s a fairly intense obsession of mine.
