These are the perfect brownies for the upcoming holiday weekend. The Fourth of July is a great time for a picnic and fireworks. These Cream Cheese Swirled Brownies are moist and easy to transport.

Caramelized Onion Tart
I am a great fan of picnics. I think it dates back to when I first met my husband and we lived in Northern Michigan. Beautiful parks and lakes were abundant and we always packed a picnic and headed out to explore the area. A great picnic can consist of a run to the […]
Cheesecake Pie with Fresh Fruit Topping
I can’t think of a more perfect dessert than a cheesecake. This recipe is from my stash of recipe cards and a family favorite. I like to use a single-crust pie crust for this pie but you could also use a graham cracker crust. Cheesecake Pie with Fresh Fruit Topping has three layers, a cheesecake […]
Orange Glazed Grilled Pork Tenderloin
I am always trying new ways to grill pork tenderloins. This time I basted the tenderloins while grilling with an orange glaze. The tenderloins are moist and delicious with a hint of orange. Perfect to serve with grilled vegetables on a beautiful summer night.

Poppyseed Orange Blueberry Bread
In my previous posts I mention our love for poppy seed bread. Specifically because that is what I made for a picnic on the day I met my husband. I am always trying new things with poppyseed bread. The addition of blueberries and orange was a sweet success.
Chocolate Chip Muffins
Recently, we spent a delightful weekend in Charleston, SC. Charleston is a great food town with lots of various eateries to try. One of our friends recommended the Fat Hen on St. John’s Island for brunch. After a fun evening celebrating at a wedding and a late Sunday morning start, the idea of coffee and […]
