Are you still waiting for the Perfect Pound Cake recipe? Me too! I’m sure I put it somewhere I could find it when I wanted it, but... Yes, I could google it, but there is more than one and I wanted to try this one. So it is on the back burner until I clean my desk or accidently find it. This recipe came from a friend. I have tried it and it’s good. It is almost barbeque season and this would be perfect for it, or a small gathering. I don’t know how well it would hold over though. INGREDIENTS 1 bag spinach 1 head iceberg or romaine lettu...

I really struggled with the recipe this week, thinking of Mother's Day. I actually over-thought it. First I was thinking of a recipe for brunch, but selfishly, brunch for me comes at the wrong time of day. I'm hungry when I get up, thus not hungry for brunch. Then I thought of the many different types of moms: those who are with us and those who are not. And those people in our lives that may be more motherly and nurturing than our own moms, like aunts, older sisters, elderly next door...

Are you asking yourself, what happened to the perfect pound cake recipe I was talking about last week? I spent at least a half hour looking for it on Saturday and couldn't find it. I think I pulled it out of my drawer so I would have it when I was ready for it, so it is somewhere. So frustrating; but that seems to be how I roll. I saw this recipe and it caught my eye because of the smoked paprika. We have some, but I've never used it. It seemed like a lot of paprika, but the reviews all said it...

I wasn’t sure which recipe I was going to use this week. I have a recipe that is called, The Perfect Pound Cake. It takes lots of butter and eggs so I wanted to try it first before I suggested someone else try it. I still have a tub of Klicker’s strawberries frozen and frozen blueberries. I want to make the pound cake and put the fruit on top. That, hopefully, will be next week’s recipe. I went searching through a recipe box that a friend shared with me. I found this one and thought it would be perfect for tomorrow’s dinner. I have leftove...
