Caramel Brownie Cheesecake

April 1, 2011

This is a monkeyhead concoction so please don’t be disappointed with me that it’s not 100% homemade. Sometimes as a mom you have to go with your childrens ideas in order to lift their creative wings. Monkey One loves cheesecake and caramel, Monkey Two has a passion for brownies you put the two of these knuckleheads together and look […]

Perfect One Dish Dinners

October 25, 2010

Do y’all remember those Sunday suppers at your grandmother’s when you were growing up? I do. All of my aunts, uncles and cousins packed into the house laughing or possibly squabbling. A table so full that we actually had to eat somewhere other than the dining room. Usually supper ended up becoming a musical chair […]

Lemon & Blackberry Cheesecake

August 3, 2010

So on really, really, really hot humid days what do you crave? I crave cool lemonade with ice clinking in the glass, swinging in the hammock under the shade of the old oak trees and a bowl of blackberries with creamy goat cheese to munch on. This recipe embodies all of those flavors. When I […]

Chocolate & Mint makes everything better.

July 26, 2010

When things aren’t going my way and I am loosing my glue like today, I turn to cheesecake. I can’t post my latest cheesecake recipe, the Reef Sweetwater contest or anything requiring a photo as of yet due to an upgrade that seems to be taking FOR- E-V-E-R to process. So in the meantime I […]

July 4th Tradition-Triple Berry Cheesecake

Almost every July 4th I am hounded, blackmailed and downright coerced into making this Triple Berry Cheesecake. My surfer LOVES it, especially since he bought me the cook book that the recipe is in. Have I told ya’ll how he takes credit for my cooking skills? Yes indeed, he loves to share that tall tale […]

Pumpkin Cheesecake…not just yummy at Thanksgiving

April 16, 2010

Did you guys like my teaser? Some of the guesses sure did TICKLE me. Three of my favorites were Pecan Danish, strudel of some sort & Pecan Monkey Bread Omelet. Nope, sorry you guys. That lovely bite would be Pumpkin Cheesecake with Praline Crumble. Here’s a secret for you, I can’t live without praline crumble. […]

Chocolate Mint Cheesecake

February 26, 2010

Lovely spring days are calling my name. I have daydreams of temperate, late evening, backyard parties, under shady old oak trees with the scent of jasmine perfuming the air. Spanish moss gently moving with the breeze, the laughter of children playing as they run around the yard. Colorful summer dresses, faded denim, breezy white shirts […]

Southern Key Lime for the Holidays

December 9, 2009

The holidays are in full swing. I absolutely love this time of year. The time of year when your house is filled with the wonderful and exotic aromas of chocolate, cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg. Everyone lives in the kitchen snacking on goodies, Bing Crosby’s “I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas” is playing in the back […]
