My husband has started a new thing where he hosts a poker night over at our house each month.  This is great for me because it gives me a chance to try out new goodies and appetizers and things for him to serve to his poker buddies.  This morning, I tried my hand and these… Continue reading Peanut Butter Cup Blondies

Maple and Salted Almond Ice Cream

A few years ago, I just had to have an ice cream maker.  Had to.  I had memories of the homemade strawberry ice cream my parents used to make (in the old time ice cream makers with the rock salt) and pictured myself lazing away the summer months with my kids making hundreds of different… Continue reading Maple and Salted Almond Ice Cream

Banana Cream Pie in Nilla Wafer Crust (Ah-mazing.)

Banana Pudding.  The ol’ dessert with nilla wafers, boxed pudding mix, and bananas layered on top of each other.  A childhood classic comfort food.  I am a total pudding snob and since I know I can make homemade pudding in 15 minutes that will be SO much better, I always make it that way.  The… Continue reading Banana Cream Pie in Nilla Wafer Crust (Ah-mazing.)
