Bacon Jam

I shared this link on Facebook yesterday, but it would be such a good addition to any New Year’s Eve party that I thought I’d share it here too. I know I’ve spoken quite a bit about being at least a partial vegetarian (I was 

The Must Make Jam of Summer

The Must Make Jam of Summer

If you’re a fan of peach and raspberry jams, then you’ve got to give this recipe a try. ย It’s the perfect blend of the two flavors, which go together unbelievably well, and the color of the resulting jam is amazing. I made this for the 

Jamie at Home

Has anyone else seen the new Jamie Oliver show called Jamie at Home? We’ve got full cable here at my mom’s place, so I’ve been enjoying watching the food channel on occasion, and this show is by far one of the best cooking shows I’ve 

Pear Ginger Jam

Pear Ginger Jam

While the pumpkins were cooking down yesterday, I used the last of my pears to make a batch of pear ginger jam. I’d never had this particular combination before, but have heard good things about it, so I thought I’d give it a shot. Not

Irish Soda Bread (Vegan)

Irish Soda Bread (Vegan)

I’m kind of a traditionalist when it comes to food (except for, you know, the whole vegan thing). I adore simple, old world recipes; the stuff our grandmothers could whip up using nothing more than intuition and what she had on hand. Simple, rustic food 

Farmhouse Scones and Strawberry Shortcake (Vegan)

Farmhouse Scones and Strawberry Shortcake (Vegan)

Every farmhouse kitchen needs a basic scone recipe, and this one is as good as they come. I’ve made others over the years that are perhaps more impressive due to their various embellishments (debatable), but this one is perfect for showcasing homemade jams and spreads,

Today’s Post Is Brought To You By The Letter “S”

Just a few quick photos from my day in the garden yesterday. The strawberry patch is suddenly bursting with flowers and fruit. Now as long as I can keep the robins in check, it looks like we’ll have a bumper crop. The wild salmonberry bush
