Hello friends! How are you all enjoying summer? Is is hotter than the blazes where you are? Minnesota has been unpredictable, but that’s pretty standard for this state. 100 degrees one day, chilly the next, and on a sunny day the storm clouds might start rolling in just in time to disrupt your beach day.…
Hello, Lovelies! Happy 4th of July! I thought I’d stop by the blog and share a cake recipe with you. I whipped up the cake last night, frosted it this morning, and decorated it right before we ate it. It’s super simple to make, and it’s a show stopper. This would make a pretty cake…
I’ve thought about making this dish for quite some time. I love the play on words, and I also think the combination of a southwest, Tex Mex dish would pair well with creamy spaghetti.

I’m finally getting around to posting photos from our 21st wedding anniversary picnic. We’ve always said that fall is “our” time of year. This year we celebrated all month. First with the picnic, and then a play (Much Ado About Nothing) at the Sheldon Theatre here in Red Wing. We took a little road trip…
Here’s a new twist on my famous Flourless Chocolate Espresso Torte. Jeff and I adore the combination of orange and chocolate, so I decided to change it up a bit this year for his birthday and add a twist of orange. It turned out wonderful! There’s just a hint of orange mixed in with the…
