Photo by Polina Tankilevitch from Pexels Tofu is known all over the world as a common meat substitute. It offers a lovely savory treat. The only problem is, it can be a bit hit and miss. When you go out and eat tofu at a restaurant, it tends to taste delicious. But, when you…
Looking back over my life, it seems I’ve always had a sweet tooth. In the not so distant past, if you had asked me what my favorite food was, I would have said, “Cake!” (Actually, my favorite food is still cake. But, read on. I actually have managed to lose my sweet tooth.) A…
This is the slow cooker I was using a few years back. (It’s been in the garage. It’s kind of beat up…) (This post contains affiliate links, which means I receive compensation if you purchase through the links (at no extra cost to you.) Yes, I was using this old slow cooker. My sister…
Have you ever wondered how to freeze squash? In past years, we didn’t grow enough extra produce to freeze, but this year, we grew a lot of nice butternut squash. Last summer we didn’t get too many (remember last year’s garden with many pumpkins but few squash?), so I just cut the few I had in half lengthwise…
My daughter asked me to bake a pumpkin pie, using pumpkin from the garden. So I googled it, found a pumpkin pie recipe, and with some modifications (well, a lot of modifications), I did it. Ugly?

A few posts before this one, I shared one of my all time favorite recipes for Pumpkin Muffins. Since then, my daughter told me about a recipe she had seen online for “2 Ingredient Muffins.” It’s so easy. And they actually taste good. (Not as good as my family recipe, of course! But still…
Today, I’m sharing one of my favorite things about fall with you – my tried and true pumpkin muffin recipe. It’s one of my favorite recipes ever. It makes people happy when I bring it to parties. I think it’s the best because it’s a sweet and moist pumpkin bread, and aren’t family recipes always the…
