Common Kitchen Conversions

Ever find yourself confused as to how many teaspoons equals a tablespoon when you're converting recipes? I find myself rummaging through old cookbooks frequently for conversions. I found this handy chart that makes it easy to find conversions at a glance. I'm printing this and taping it to the inside of my cupboard door. No more searching for me. This should be a time saver!

Breakfast Cookies

My husband and I enjoy camping and hiking. We went on a fantastic hike this past
weekend to Lawyer Stephens Cave. James Stephens was a great abolitionist who, during the 18th century,


 worked to abolish slavery in St. Kitts and throughout the Caribbean.  During the 11 years he did this, he lived in a cave in the rainforest so it could not be said that he was affiliated with the rich or the government. 
I wanted to take something with us in case we got hungry on our trek.  Whatever we took needed to be lightweight, not spillable, and not bulky.  So, I came up with the idea of making breakfast cookies.
These cookies are full of good for you things like currants, oats, and peanut butter.  They gave us the energy we needed for our long hike.  Even if you're not into hiking these are great for busy mornings when you just need to grab something and go.  I hope you'll give them a try!

Strawberry Banana Muffins With Heart

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, I wanted to bake something for my husband that would be special, and show him how much I care. I thought about cupcakes or cake, but decided instead on making muffins, so that right from the start of his day, he would have a smile on his face.

I created these Strawberry Banana Muffins for him. These muffins did put a smile on his face. Rich and moist with bursts of strawberry flavor, a crunchy topping, and a heart drawn on top with strawberry
