Pumpkin-Filled Cream Puffs with Maple-Caramel Sauce

3 Comments 14 November 2025

Cream puffs were always one of the more intimidating desserts to me. I think it’s a pastry thing - all pastry just looks hard to do. I think it’s fair to say that most of them are, but not these little beauts. They’re really similar to gougeres, but they’re the sweet version as opposed to […]

Chipotle & Rosemary Roasted Nuts

2 Comments 02 November 2025

If your family’s like mine, they start looking for the special holiday snacks to be coming out of the kitchen right about now. Amongst mine’s faves are things like homemade Chex Snack Mix, but I started wondering if maybe there was something new. I ran across this one while scouting through my cookbooks last week […]

Pecan Pumpkin Crunch

3 Comments 31 October 2025

It’s time to start getting serious. Thanksgiving’s on the horizon. Do you know what you’re serving? Oh, good - neither do I! Well, except for the turkey. There’s that. There may also be ham. Piggies we are. I’ve mentioned before how we don’t quite have all our Thanksgiving traditions set in stone yet, so I’m […]

Savory Pecan-Crusted Blue Cheese Bites

2 Comments 27 July 2025

If this space wasn’t a somewhat experimental one before, it really is today. I’m not a fan of blue cheese. It and I, we don’t see eye to eye let alone appreciate the same kinds of smells. It’s really not the moldy bits peppering throughout, it’s just the taste. But my husband? He loves the […]

Maple-Pecan Scones

4 Comments 13 June 2025

People, prepare to make the largest scones ever - and promptly fall in love with them and be glad they’re so big. Also, the icing that accompanies these things is like some kind of icing of the gods. It’s almost alarming how easy it is to make, too, because I could so see myself sleepwalking […]

Cinnamon, Pecan, and Currant Cream Scones

1 Comment 18 November 2025

Want to know the honest truth? I picked this recipe out because I only needed to buy one ingredient on the list. That’s bad economy frugality for you. And it’s a beautiful thing! Actually, we’ve been wanting to try out a scone recipe for a while, and there’s no time like the present. Scones seem […]

Pecan Pie Muffins

8 Comments 03 October 2025

I’ve been looking at delicious food blogs, yummy pictures of food and searching through recipes way too much lately. I suspect this behavior won’t stop anytime soon. It’s become kind of compulsive, and not a little obsessive as well. I’ve been pouring over Pioneer Woman’s site too, as I’m sure thousands upon thousands of us […]

Zucchini Pecan Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting

3 Comments 22 September 2025

Zucchini are a great summer vegetable. Good thing summer’s hanging on around here like a desperate vagabond relative with nowhere else to go, while Fall approaches, dubiously wondering what that hot relative is still hanging around for. The unusual part of this week’s recipe is that I used that summer bright veggie to bake with. […]
