Hi and happy spring! We made it through the cold and gray winter here in Kentuckiana. As all of the beautiful flowers start to bloom, filling our lives with color, I thought it would be fun to share a recipe that I like to make around Easter each year. It’s a creamy fruit salad that my family has lovingly named “Pink Harold".

If you have a sinful sweet tooth and love peanut butter and chocolate, then do I have the recipe for you!! A super simple recipe for a quick, homemade dessert.

Do YOU like fruitcake?? Have you ever asked someone if they like fruitcake? The reaction most people have is “Thanks but no thanks.” However!! I was introduced to this no bake recipe abut 40 years ago, and it’s unlike any fruitcake I had ever tasted. Once I sampled it, I was hooked, and I have been making it ever since.

Ok, I admit it, I’m a Fall Fanatic! It's my favorite season of the year without a doubt and nothing says fall to me like pumpkin bread. This particular recipe was introduced to our church community in the 1960s by our associate minister’s wife. My mother made this recipe so many times over the years, it’s naturally named "Mom’s pumpkin bread.” One of my fondest memories is sharing a piece (or two) with her whenever she baked it. Trust me, I have tried lots of pumpkin bread recipes, but this one is my absolute favorite. I know you will love it too.

Nothing announces the arrival of summer quite like a generous slice of fresh strawberry pie piled high with a mountain of fresh whipped cream. Here in Kentuckiana, strawberries are really in season starting in late June. Its always a fun time to go to the local family farm and go strawberry picking…

For quite some time, I’ve heard about Sally’s brownies from my son-in-law. Sally is his coworker at United Airlines Corporate Office in Chicago. Among her other talents, Sally has earned the title of official brownie maker for their office, and also for her family and friends. Whenever there’s an occasion at the office for any celebration, Sally makes her famous brownies.

This chocolate cake is a great way to celebrate Fat Tuesday and your sweet tooth - making this recipe seems too easy to be true! It starts with a cake mix and with the addition of a few more ingredients, it’s all mixed and baked in one 9"x13" pan. Couldn’t be easier and the chocolate frosting just adds another layer of decadence. Once you have tried this, let me know how much you enjoy it. I believe you will be making this again and again! Laissez les bon temps rouler!

If you need to satisfy your sweet tooth while watching your waistline, this is the prescription for you. There are literally only two ingredients you’ll need: a box of Betty Crocker Angel Food cake mix and a can of crushed pineapple. That’s it!!

One of my earliest memories of making cut-out sugar cookies, lovingly called “cookie cutters,” was with my mom and brothers during the holidays. Over the years, I have collected many different cookie cutters from boutiques and shops both local and abroad. I love using them, because it always brings back so many amazing memories. My wish is that you will take this recipe, gather these simple ingredients, and create some memories in your kitchen with family and cookie cutters. Happy Holidays!

October is my favorite month here in Kentuckiana and Halloween is always a fun time to get creative. These spooky skeleton brownies rising from the grave are the perfect haunted delicious treat. Boo!

Apples, cinnamon, nutmeg and warm gooey pastry crust served with a side of ice cream or whipped cream - delicious! My best friend’s mother introduced me to this wonderful recipe and I’m delighted to share it with you.

This is one of my favorite and easy recipes for the fall season or, for that matter, anytime that you want some moist and delicious cake. Cupcake or muffin size is just the perfect bite of spice and no guilt attached.

If you’re looking for a light and tangy dessert, look no further! This delicious treat has been a family favorite for many years and I’m thrilled to share it with you.

Mabel was a family friend and her coffee cake was a favorite of ours. This is my take on a mid-century classic recipe.

It’s always the right season for this ice cream sandwich cake. It’s versatile because you can use your favorite ingredients between the layers of ice cream sandwiches, frost it with whipped topping, freeze it, slice it and Voila; you have a beautiful, delicious dessert made with only a few minutes of preparation.

My mother used to make this delicious cake for me and my brothers, especially in the summer. It's the perfect treat for a warm summer day.
