The last time I was in Detroit, I went to a new bakery called Sister Pie. I fell in love with the place immediately. Unfortunately, I arrived minutes before the shop was closing and had a very limited selection of pie slices to choose from. One of them was a salted maple pie. I couldn’t…

Maple Bacon Glazed Donuts
My son had a friend sleepover and I took them to see Godzilla. It was hilarious! I don’t think it was the films’ intention to be hilarious, but my son, his friend, the audience and I laughed for at least half of the film. The special effects were great by the way. While we were…
Bacon Crack
I have to be honest. I’m not very good a creating my own recipes. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve said “I wish I thought of that!”. This was one of those times. I love bacon. Like, a lot. If bacon were actually healthy, I’d eat it every day. When I saw this…

Buttermilk Pancakes
I first made these pancakes a few years ago for my son’s birthday breakfast. The recipe was on the packaging for Star Wars pancake molds. I don’t usually try recipes found on product labels, but I made them and they were delicious. They are the perfect balance of hearty and light. I fry them in…
