All of these smooth, drinkable, refreshing summer cocktails are perfect for sipping on a patio or at a cookout.

Christmas is the season of giving, and making food to share is one of the most simple, caring, intimate ways to show someone you love them. No matter the size of the crowd you’re baking for, there’s something on this list for everyone!

There is nothing of the finicky french creation in this soufflé; delicious, easy, and great to make for a crowd, a Texas breakfast soufflé is adaptable and easy. Though this recipe hails from my mother’s former neighbor in Lake City, Minnesota, it’s been adapted through the years for my dad’s big Texas family with a crucial addition: green chili.

I was lucky enough to get this recipe from a good friend’s mother who is from Yorkshire. A traditional British scone is the pastry and the pastry only, so that is how I have written this recipe. However, if you happen to find yourself mixing blueberries into the batter, or sprinkling them with caster sugar, I won't tell.

One of the things we all know is amazing about the holiday season but rarely discuss openly - the beverages. If you’re looking to have a more ~ adult ~ holiday season, try out one of these delicious wintery cocktails.

This is it… the mother of all fall/winter desserts… the queen of the table at any self-respecting thanksgiving… The pumpkin pie. Making pumpkin pie 100% from scratch takes some time, but it’s totally worth it.

Coffee cake is GREAT: it’s a socially acceptable way to eat cake for breakfast! For part 4 of my fall 2020 pumpkin recipes series, I wanted to adapt my recipe for spice cake to incorporate this classic autumn ingredient. This recipe absolutely knocks it out of the park.

When the weather gets cooler and pumpkin fever takes over, it’s time to bust out the pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. Less chewy, more cakey than traditional chocolate chip cookies, this recipe is kryptonite for your sweet tooth

A few years ago, I decided to investigate how to prepare pumpkin puree (AKA, the way you actually use pumpkin in recipes) from scratch, and it’s pretty dang easy. Pie pumpkins are smaller (and cheaper) than regular pumpkins, and you can find them at just about any pumpkin patch or grocery store in the fall.

This classic fall blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and allspice is lovely infused into your beverage of choice - a boozy apple cider cocktail, warm black tea, or you can go WILD and put it in a latte.

This rhubarb cake recipe comes straight from my Grandma Betty. This rhubarb cake is as perfect in the morning with a cup of strong black coffee as it is after supper with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.

This is one of the few strawberry cake recipes out there that has actual strawberries in it, and it is 99% from scratch. It would be absolutely decadent with cream cheese frosting or a chocolate ganache.
