Ewe - it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas!

-



I am running a couple of days behind!  I would be willing to bet some of you are as well?  After all tis the season!  Kayte chose as our theme this week to do foods regarding Christmas. There are so many choices out there. I decided to think outside the box and make a little healthy breakfast dessert. You could eat it at anytime of the day. But we chose to add it to our Christmas Eve breakfast as a special treat. It is extremely easy to whip up. It is vanilla yogurt, frozen raspberries, whipped cream and confectioner sugar.  I did not add the confectioners sugar but instead added a teaspoon of peach schnapps just to seem a little more festive!  The name of the dessert is raspberries fool.  Not sure why Ellen Krieger called it that but it is delicious.  We thoroughly enjoyed our little treat and the added sugar was not needed.  You can find the recipe online.
Blessings to your family during this holiday season and happy new year!  Hoping 2017 brings health, happiness and peace to all.

That looks perfect for Christmas...or any time at all! Love your choice, and your Christmas decor. Hope it was all wonderful and the Happiest of New Years to you both! xo

I finally got around to posting my Christmas theme...lol...things are a bit at sixes and sevens as they say around here but I'm trying to catch up a bit. And I used your favorite dishes for the photo...the Christmas dishes we both have! That's always fun for me to know that you have them as well.

Ina Garten's Deviled Eggs!

This is appetizers week in our Ina Garten Fridays group!!  I chose her deviled eggs because we love deviled eggs and I never deviate from my old family recipe so I thought I would branch out and try something different.  I'm so glad I did!  I love these and I am sure my DH will love them tonight for dinner also. With just these ingredients, you can impress your guests or yourself, with some delicious deviled eggs. Ina's recipe says to hardboil six eggs.  (I only did five because that was all I had and mine turned out a little fluffier than they probably should have, but delicious just the same).  If you don't know how to boil eggs, please take a minute to learn.  If your eggs turn out green, you have overcooked them.  To make perfect boiled eggs every time, I put my eggs in cold water and put them on the stove, bring to a boil.  As soon as they begin boiling, I take them off the stove and cover and let them sit for 15 minutes.  At this point, they are perfe

TWD - Steph’s Bakewell Tart

What is a Bakewell Tart, you might ask.  Apparently it all began in Derbyshire, England.  I had no idea it was popular with  The Great British Baking Show.   This classic  combines a buttery shortcrust pastry with a filling of raspberry jam, (or in my case blackberry jam), topped with an almond spongecake and almond slices. I think there are probably many different versions of the Bakewell. On my first attempt, my crust totally fell apart in the oven.  At that point, I went to plan b and made four mini tarts.  These worked perfectly for us.  I have a very thin layer of the jam and wish I had used a bit more.  We enjoyed this and it was a breeze to put together.   Check out Tuesdayswithdorie.wordpress.com for others.

TWD - Brown Sugar Bundt Cake

It is my turn to host! Almost three years ago I had no idea what a food blog was, much less that there were ladies and gentlemen all across the world baking and writing about such things, and sharing and growing with each other over recipes.  I'm not a chef or a great baker, but I do love to cook for my family so I decided to join in.  Since we are just two days past Mother's Day, I want to thank my sweet mother (who passed away three years ago) for sharing her love of cooking with me. My first Dorie recipe was a fruit galette.  I remember still how delicious it was.  I even remember the first comment I received on my blog.  It was like an award to me!  I still love reading all your comments, so thank you to those of you who regularly stop by to leave encouragement and stop for a second to say hello. Now about Dorie.  I love the way Dorie explains her recipes step by step.  While some of the recipes in her book "appear" complicated, I think any novice could fol
