You read the title right....double coconut pecan frosting. Maybe it's old memories of sneaking little "tastes" of the coconut frosting my mom used to put on our oatmeal cake as a kid. When it was time to actually eat the cake, there wasn't much frosting left (you did that too, right?). Or maybe I always feel like this frosting gets spread a … Read More »

Banana Crumb Muffins
We eat a lot of Krusteaz muffins at our house for breakfast. I don't buy cold cereal very often, and it gives us a great, fast hot breakfast option. I haven't found many homemade recipes that I like as much....they always see a bit bland and heavy. However, when I saw this recipe, I had to give it a try! Who doesn't love a way to use those … Read More »
Beef Tamale Pie
I've tried a few versions of this recipe, but this one gets the proportions right between the cornbread topping and the meat mixture on the bottom. I hope you enjoy! Tawna … Read More »
Beef Pot Pie
This week's recipe is another comfort food. I've adjusted my favorite pie crust by decreasing the sugar in it for you. Save the sweet crusts for desserts! If you don't feel like you have the time or energy for a homemade crust, go get two pie crusts from your local grocer, although the homemade pie crust will be a million times better. That's my … Read More »
Wheat Bread
If there was one thing I would say is my "specialty" (as far as cooking goes), it would be baking bread. I have tried hard to master it over the past decade, and I think I've got a pretty good handle on it. This is my standard sandwich bread. We use it for everything! The fresh-ground wheat makes it extra nutritious, and there is limited … Read More »

Sweet Chili
Anyone who has used a recipe a lot knows it eventually gets changed once in awhile. Remember my "Fast and Easy" chili recipe? Well, I've changed a few things about it after eating the most delicious chili made by a friend. The secret ingredient is the V8 juice and switching out some kidney beans for pork and beans! It's still just as easy. … Read More »
“Rocket” Heirloom Painting
I noticed this cute drawing done by my son at the beginning of the week and couldn't resist painting it! It's a handsome little thing that would be a great addition to any boy's room. It is hand-painted and filled with color and texture! It's 16x20, and unframed. You can see the staples down the sides, so that it will need a frame. The good … Read More »
Chicken and Dumplings
Today I am sharing another " ultimate comfort food " recipe. It hits the spot on these cold (but staying light a little longer) winter days. Enjoy! Tawna {photo via 123rf.com} … Read More »
German Pancakes
This breakfast is so simple and affordable, that it is hard to ever justify buying cold cereal. We do keep some on hand here and there but are big believers in hot breakfasts! Top with whatever you wish....we like a light sprinkling of powdered sugar. Enjoy! Tawna … Read More »
