Recipe Archive

Hi there!

Because this archive had become rather large and unwieldy, I’ve compiled all of my favorite recipes/techniques/posts on a separate page: The Essentials. I advise checking that out first, then coming back here if you still haven’t found what you’re looking for.

Thanks for visiting!

    I love, love, love your web site. Your recipes are wonderfully displayed. My only concern is it takes so much ink to print them. Could there be just one picture and the recipe? I know it’s a lot to ask, but I’m out of ink every 6-7 recipes. :( Great job, I recommend it to everyone.

    Betty! There is an option to click at the top to remove images! I feel so bad that you have wasted so much paper and ink. I wish this option were more visible. When you’re in the printfriendly window, too, if you roll your mouse over the paragraphs, it gives you the option to delete them. Let me know if you have any other questions about this.

    I came across a link to your website on pinterest. I’ve just quickly gone through your recipies here. Well, not so quickly. I’ll be back again and again I’m sure. This is awesome. What brought me to your website was a photo of “Buttermilk Pecan Coffee Cake”. Unfortunately I cannot find the photo nor the recipe any where on your web site. It looks like the link was made a few years ago. Is this recipe still available? Please help; it looks delicious! Thank you, Denise

    Hi Denise! So happy you found what you were looking for and so sorry for this very delayed response — I was in VA beach with my fam for the week and got a little behind in my responding. Thank you for all of your nice comments. Good luck with the cake!

    I came across your website while looking for ways to use up some buttermilk. Then, I spent the next hour salivating from one recipe to another. Each time I pulled up a recipe, another image/link to another would draw me further in. I finally am cutting myself off for the day. Everything looks so delicious. I love to bake and can’t wait to try the dozens of recipes I’ve already looked at. Now, instead of just using up the leftover buttermilk, I’ll probably have to go get some more (and other ingredients) to make the other recipes!

    Thanks so much for taking the time to post so many beautiful pictures and recipes!

    Oh my goodness, I have just found the loveliest recipe site I have ever seen. Every recipe is a gem, and I love the commentary that goes along with it. It’s going to take me several, delicious hours to see it all. You are such a clever girl!!!
