Mixed Berry Pancake Syrup Recipe

We love fruit. You can always find some type of fruit in the fridge, freezer or sitting out on the counter at our house. I decided to try out a new pancake recipe, and just knew homemade berry syrup would be the perfect topping for the pancakes. I really love how this syrup turned out. It's easy to make, and you can't beat the wonderful flavor. It's great for topping waffles, french toast,

Pumpkin Rice Pudding Recipe

Rice Pudding was always a favorite of mine growing up, and still is today. I've been wanting to make something else with pumpkin this fall, and was craving rice pudding, so I adapted my Mom's recipe by adding pumpkin. My Mom, my brother, daughter and I all loved how this turned out! I even made it twice within a couple days to

Breakfast Beef Roast Hash Recipe

The first time I ever tried beef roast hash was at my Aunt Linda's house. It was delicious, and I loved it from the very first bite. Anytime I have leftover beef roast, carrots and potatoes from the slow cooker, I always make this hash for breakfast the next day. I've also added finely chopped fresh mushrooms, and they fry up

Book Review: Detroit City Is the Place to Be by Mark Binelli

Summary from Goodreads: Once America's capitalist dream town, Detroit is our country's greatest urban failure, having fallen the longest and the farthest. But the city's worst crisis yet (and that's saying something) has managed to do the unthinkable: turn the end of days into a laboratory for the future. Urban planners, land speculators, neo-pastoral agriculturalists, and utopian

Tator Tot Hotdish Recipe

Minnesota is the land of hotdishes! They are rarely called casseroles, and more than likely include a can of cream of something soup! I love looking at old church cookbooks from Minnesota. Almost every recipe in the main dish section is a hotdish. You can tell they were very popular in the 70's and 80's! Tator Tot Hotdish is a favorite from my childhood. Everyone makes it a little

Very Blueberry Muffins Recipe

My daughter Ella is on a huge blueberry muffin kick right now. She tried to talk me into buying her some at Target the other day, but we walked out of the store with some frozen blueberries instead so we could make them at home. She had so much fun helping me measure out all of the ingredients and mixing them together. This is the perfect recipe to get your kids in the kitchen and involved

Sweet Citrus Tilapia Recipe

Fish has always been a favorite food of mine. I have so many memories of fishing on the lake growing up in Minnesota. Our state is nicknamed "Land of 10,000 Lakes" so where ever you are, there's usually a lake somewhere close by! When I don't have access to fresh fish, I usually buy tilapia. It's easy to cook and you can prepare it with so many methods and flavors. This recipe turned out

October Foodie Penpal Reveal

This last month has gone by so quickly! I had an awesome foodie penpal this month and was super excited when I opened the box she sent me! Every month I eagerly await my box to arrive in the mail at work. I always have everything shipped there since I live in an apartment and my packages never fit in the small mailbox. Normally I'm the one who usually checks the mail at work, but my Dad does
