So blueberries are back in the stores! Yippee! I adore fresh blueberries, and couldn’t resist the temptation to buy some on a whim when I saw them last week. So glad I did. They’re fresh and bright, sweet and delicious, and the perfect taste of spring to keep me going through these ridiculously cold weeksRead more
These oatcakes are dense and hearty and filled with oat-y goodness. I wasn’t sure what I thought of these at first, but they definitely grew on me.

Mom had a no good, very bad day yesterday, so I told her I’d treat her today. When I saw this scone recipe I knew it’d be a great way to start the day and make her feel taken care of. These scones are very subtly sweet, so if you’re into sweet baked goods forRead more
