A light, tender, delicious pumpkin cake, not pumpkin bread! This makes a small, 8-inch layer cake and uses just a few bought ingredients – a box of yellow cake mix, a tub of frosting, pure canned pumpkin and the rest of the ingredients you most like have already – oil, eggs, milk, and spices. It is a great recipe for the fall and an easy…

Snickerdoodles
Snickerdoodles! The soft, chewy cinnamon cookies that so many many people love! If you have never had them, you should try them! This recipe is practically the same as the famous Mrs. Sigg’s Snickerdoodle’s recipe which has been around for decades. I only lowered the oven temperature, I use butter-flavored shortening, and I use vanilla paste instead of vanilla extract. Snickerdoodles have an interesting history!…

Strawberry Rhubarb Muffins
If you love rhubarb as much as I do, then you will enjoy this recipe! I know we are few in number! I like using just rhubarb, but I will add in strawberries, even chocolate chips sometimes to please other people. I prefer just rhubarb though. Well, as a kid I used to twist off a rhubarb stalk from my Dad’s garden, wipe it off…

This recipe has a lot of…
NO-BAKE Cherry Cream Cheese Pie
For many decades, Cherry Cream Cheese Pie has been a favorite no-bake recipe! It first appeared in the1960’s as Borden’s Cherry-O Cream Cheese Pie. It became extremely popular and has been ever since! But to me, my mother-in-law Ruth’s little addition to it is the best! Her little change puts it above all the rest! I don’t see it done her way anywhere! She adds…
Thin Split Pea Soup with Chouriço or Chorizo in a Crockpot
This soup has split peas in it, but it is not thick; it has a thin broth! With the smoked sausage, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, the seasoning amount has some heat, but not a lot. Start with the 1/4 teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Increase it to 1/2 teaspoon if you want more kick. If you don’t like heat at all, just…
