Brown Sugar Cookies

October 24th, 2014Tina18 Comments

I have a secret. I used to hate thin cookies. I thought that they were the worst thing in the baking world. Don’t judge me… I can hear the gasps all over the internet now! 😉 I’ve learned over time that there are two kinds of flat cookies in this world. There are ones that end up flat and gross due to a baking catastrophe (like not enough flour). Then there are ones that are meant to be thin and delicious, like these wonderful brown sugar beauties.

Spinach Pie Spaghetti Squash

October 22nd, 2014Tina36 Comments

Do you find it intimidating to work with squash? If yes, it’s not as scary as it seems. I promise. I used to be intimidated by squash.

Have you ever wished for a delicious piece of quiche but didn’t want the calories of the crust? How about a bread pudding, but where you’re not really in the mood for something that tastes like French toast? I didn’t know there was anything like that until recently. It’s called a Strata and it’s a mixture of bread, eggs, and cheese and was apparently made for just such a collection of needs. Well as far as I’m concerned they can call it whatever they want, I call it freaking delicious! Who wouldn’t like a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich in a …
