This was one of those hungry mornings. I decided to utilize my fresh blueberries and made some buckwheat blueberry pancakes.  I used War Eagle Mill’s Buckwheat Pancake and Waffle Mix. It is an organic grain mix and is quite delicious. Buckwheat pancakes have been my favorite since I was a young child. My mom would [...]

Here is a great buckwheat pancake mix. I was brought up with buckwheat pancakes and have tried to find the perfect buckwheat pancake that resembles or comes as close to the ones I used to have as a child. My mother would go to Old Sturbridge Village and get the buckwheat mix and make the [...]

Don’t you just love English Muffins?  I do, in fact, I love to have them many different ways. I love them toasted with either butter, peanut butter, or jam.  My favorite jam is peach, though I do love many of the fruit preserves and jams found in grocery stores, unfortunately many of the store bought [...]

It’s one of those nights when I don’t feel like a typical dinner. Sometimes pancakes just taste better at night. It has been a while since I had some so I decided to make Dancing Deer’s Buttermilk Pancakes. A while back I posted a review on this company’s meyer lemon blueberry pancakes.

Today was the first day of spring at my school, well at least it tasted like it. We have a great staff at our school and there is one thing that we can count on: have a luncheon buffet and everyone goes all out to supply the tastiest of delights. People involved in this little [...]

What I discovered about Splenda is it is disgustingly gross and tastes like a chemist’s testtube leftovers. Yuck! Why this rant?  Yesterday I baked a cake with Splenda to help my friend out who wanted to make a cake for her diabetic sister’s birthday. We went on-line and found a recipe for a marble cake [...]

Saturday morning, time to cook, buckwheat pancake mix at hand, only one thing to do-make a batch for breakfast. I decided this was the perfect day for a warm breakfast as winter’s grip will not let go! What’s with this? It is soooo cold out that I decided that buckwheat pancakes aren’t going to kill [...]

It is no secret that I love apples. I eat an apple or two a day. I usually eat them plain but once in a great while I have the urge to sweeten them up just a bit with cinnamon and sugar. I recently received a spice mix from The Spice House, a company based [...]
