This post brought to you by Carapelli Olive Oil. All opinions are 100% mine. When was the last time you did a taste test with olive oil? You haven’t? Really? Well, to be honest with you I hadn’t either until Carapelli Olive Oil sent me an Olive Oil tasting kit, complete with three Carapelli Olive [...]
Memories of Tippins {Recipe: Honey Butter Corn Bread}
Pin It I can’t think of corn bread without thinking of Tippin’s restaurants. When I was younger, before living in Kansas City, my family would visit Kansas City quite often. Along with those visits usually meant lunch at Tippin’s, a restaurant known for their delicious pies. While everyone else would pour over the menu trying [...]
Leftover Bread {Recipe: Bread Machine Challah}
I see recipes all over the web that call for leftover or day old bread. Bread pudding, French toast, homemade croutons… I bookmark these recipes, thinking someday I’ll make them. The problem is my family doesn’t seem to know what leftover bread or day old bread is. It doesn’t exist. I make bread, I serve [...]

Time Machine (Recipe: Pumpkin Biscuits with Orange-Honey Butter)
One bite was all it took for me to be sitting around our dining room table in my childhood home, nylons still on my feet, shoes off, my parents nagging at me that I’m ruining my nylons because I am not wearing shoes… “Do you know how much nylons cost? You are running around the [...]
Dancing Queen Gone Unseen (Recipe: Rosemary Bread)
The evening really did start off nicely. The girls and I were be-bopping around in my bathroom to some of our favorite tunes. I was on hair, makeup and costume duty getting my daughters all ready for their dance recital performance that they had been working on all year long. The excitement was overwhelming… neither [...]
