Artichokes! Either you love them or you hate them! I love them! I like them both Stuffed or Unstuffed, but more often I make them unstuffed so I don’t get so full from the stuffing and can have more leaves! I love the leaves as much as the heart! Here are two recipes, one for the Unstuffed and one for the Stuffed version. I have…
From allrecipes.com, I finally tried their Downeast Pumpkin Bread, and no wonder it got over 7K likes! It is the best pumpkin bread I ever tried. I love the pumpkin flavor and I love the clean cuts it makes. It is not crumbly at all. I know that butter is tasty in breads, but using oil makes them more moist. I usually like raisins or…
A small, 9-inch Chocolate Pumpkin Nut Snack Cake to try that I think is great change from regular brownies. It is so moist and fudgy, and it’s made with a brownie mix! NO eggs, no oil, no butter! The pumpkin puree does the job of all that! You will love that it takes less than 5 minutes to make! Use your favorite brownie mix. I…
Real cranberries in a chocolate chip cookie? Yes! It is a delicious, sweet-tangy combination! Try them! We love these! We think these are better with real cranberries than with dried cranberries.

Butternut Squash is naturally sweet and it makes a wonderful pie! I like it better than Pumpkin pie! I bake the fresh butternut squash so it peels easily and then I puree it. You can use the canned or frozen squash istead if you want. Squash pie is delicious! See my steps how to make it in the slideshow below. Enjoy!
This is one of my favorite holiday pies! Apples, cranberries and walnuts go really well together! I have tried several recipes for this pie. I combined some techniques and ingredients to come up with this way that I like the best! Cooking the filling for a few minutes beforehand makes it a success every time! I like it with lowered sugar and added more cranberries…
I hope you are not afraid of making cake rolls! Have you tried Libby’s Pumpkin Roll recipe? This recipe got me started making different cake rolls. Cake Rolls are a lot of fun to make!

This delicious, colorful, sweet, fall vegetable casserole dish is one I get requested to make at Thanksgiving! I originally got a similar recipe from my sister, Annie who introduced me to this great dish! Then my co-worker SaraGail made this every fall for a teachers’ luncheon during Rosh Hashanah. And she served the traditional beef brisket with it. A sweet New Year, Happy Rosh Hashanah…

I have several favorite apple pie recipes that I love all for different reasons and I use them all! You can find some of my other favorite apple pie recipes on my…
CRISPY OUTSIDES, CHEWY INSIDES…. success! I finally mastered the pumpkin cookie the way I wanted them to be! Most pumpkin cookie recipes I’ve tried are delicious, but their texture was soft and cake-like. Some people like them like that. Me, I am more for crispy on the outside, chewy on the inside. The pumpkin puree has a lot of water in it so it tends…
Canned pumpkin? No, not me. For decades now, I have opted out! Have you ever had pumpkin pie made from real pumpkins? Canned pumpkin filling is good, but using the real pumpkin tastes even better. If you never had fresh pumpkin pie, you are missing out on the real taste of pumpkin! You can use regular pumpkins, but the smaller sugar pumpkins are ideal for…
Pepperidge Farm Dark Date Nut Bread was one of the few sweet breads I would buy, and they discontinued it many years ago. I have bought other ones, but none compared. I tried quite a few recipes but have not been happy until I found this one, which I tweaked a bit. It is not as dark, but it is moist and delicious! Date Nut…
This fruitcake is light in color, and so nice and moist! If you don’t like the dark, heavier fruitcakes, try this one! As a child, I watched my Aunt Gloria make this delicious fruitcake right after Thanksgiving for Christmas! I updated her recipe just a bit with a glaze, but…
