This is something I learned from my younger sister while visiting her in Alaska recently. She purchases seasoned pork, makes patties, browns them, then freezes for future … Read more Breakfast Sausage Patties

Quick question: are you a pancake stacker? or do you prefer single layer, so every little bit can be smeared with butter and drenched in syrup?

Saturday. Sleeping late. Brunch. Family. Relaxing. Traditions. I’m all over that! At the end of a crazy, stressful week, there just isn’t anything better than a calm morning with delicious treats.

Buckwheat Buttermilk Waffles – Gluten Free

Like many families, we read the Little House books by Laura Ingalls Wilder. In fact recently, I’ve been reading “Farmer Boy” outloud to my husband. He loves to hear about the adventures of young Almanzo, and all the buckwheat cakes he ate. 😊

As a child, I was aware of what it meant to be frugal. My grandmother would patch holes in plastic bread bags so she could use them for months. My sisters and I were encouraged to put money into “the trip fund” instead of buying something superfluous like potato chips. Mom sewed all of our clothes – even underwear – and hand-me-downs were commonplace.
