I recently discovered that Metamucil – a popular colon cleanse had aspartame and yellow food coloring as ingredients. Several years ago when I had my first colonoscopy the doc told me, “drink a glass of Metamucil every day and you should never have any problems”. I didn’t have problems anyway but I figured if drinking […]
Oil & Honey Edition Orange Cinnamon cookies are sweet and cheery little bites. Using wild orange oil and orange zest turns them from a plain little cookie to a zingy little cookie! The cinnamon oil brings warm and spicy flavors and pairs perfectly with the orange. A cookie full of flavor and elevated to deliciousness by the addition of […]
Herb infused honey is a pairing of goodness on two levels.. The medicinal value found in herbs as well as the healing benefits of honey. I love honey straight out of the jar but infused honeys certainly have their place in my kitchen. Imagine fresh pear slices drizzled with rosemary infused honey. How about lavender honey spooned […]
I made Spiced Banana Muffins after my man Dan made this comment.

I love fruit crisps. After making this sweet, mixed berry crisp with real vanilla beans, cardamom, cinnamon and a pecan crunch topping I’m certain they rank at the top of my favorites list. I even like the way the juice bubbles up and over the edges. These sweet crisps would make a great non-traditional Valentine’s Day […]
Chilly fall temperatures turned to bone chilling temperatures this past weekend in the Carolinas. Weather fit for a glass of Hot Spiced Wine. The aroma, a bouquet of cinnamon, citrus and pepper. The flavor, rousing to the taste buds, sweet, spicy, peppery, smooth, with warm citrus notes. It goes down easily and might lure you into multiple […]
