Memorial Day is right around the corner which means I like to sport some Red, White and Blue for sure! This cake is dedicated to my Grandpa “Boots”. He was a wonderful man and I always get a smile on my face whenever anyone talks about him. The memories of him are few and far between as he passed when I was only 4 years old. Every day I wish he he was here to watch my baby grow {Read More}

I love poppy seed muffins, cakes or really anything so when I was flipping through my brand spankin’ new 101 Farmhouse Favorites cookbook from Gooseberry I knew this Poppy Seed Cake was calling my name. It started off with a cake mix and just added a few simple things to really dress it up. What I loved about it was it didn’t have lemon in it. Now I adore lemon but my husband, not so much and I’m always trying {Read More}

She’s a gem. I saw this recipe a while back and “pinned” it of {Read More}
It’s Secret Recipe Club time again! Another month has flown by again. I feel like I say this quite frequently in life and it kind of scares the living daylights out of me. Life just flies by! This month I was assigned the blog The Avid Appetite. Rachel has a wonderful blog over there and an even cuter little baby, Penelope. As a new mom Rachel had me at hello. I was off to find some recipes and I ended {Read More}
As you all know from the Funfetti Overnight French Toast post it was the hubby’s birthday this past weekend. Which by the way was, AMAZING so go check it out. We started out the morning with the French Toast and then I made this cake. This too was an epic success. It’s a good thing too because I had some brownie points to win back. Yes. I failed as a wife. You see we live in small town Minnesota and {Read More}
Oh come to Mamma! I adore Blondies. They are soft and chewy. Perfect. Like I could sit down with an entire pan and a fork and devour the entire thing. Don’t worry I practiced a little self restraint. I only ate a row at a time! When I got this month’s assignment for the Lady Behind the Curtain’s dessert challenge and it was pretzels and caramel I knew exactly when I was going to do with them. I’d had this {Read More}
As you all know I grew up on a farm. My little bro now farms with the Pops therefore he lives out in the country which is about 7 miles out of town. He also has an office in town to use for his business Northern Tractor & Implement where he sells all kinds of fancy GPS stuff for farmers which I don’t even begin to say I understand. Often nights he is in town so we get to see {Read More}

I’ve been dreaming of this recipe for a very, very long time. It’s inspired by a local Italian restaurants dessert nachos. I was dying to recreate them at home except it never happened. You know how that goes right? Good intentions sometimes never happen. Don’t you hate how that goes? When Mission sent me a package of their brand new Super Soft Tortillas I knew it was meant to be. I made it happen. Plus these tortillas are a {Read More}
