My friend Maren read this post of mine, and, as a fellow non-breakfast-breakfaster, she sent me this recipe of Martha's.

Sometimes I feel as if the busyness of our lives is directly proportional to the minutes of daylight. I’m not complaining at all though. I am actually having a blast, and I sure do love the extra daylight. Right now, we’re digging up and moving three of my perennial beds, and I am currently working on two food features for two different magazines. How cool is that?!! I’m also squeezing in training for a half marathon, helping my 3 year old with her Suzuki violin practice [you should see the size of her violin, it really is the smallest violin in the world] and my 5 year old’s dance performance preparations… You get the picture. I’m sure most of you are in the same boat in your own lives.

Do you ever just wake up on a Sunday morning and want to bake to your little hearts content? As a kid, my mom would bake something absolutely delicious every Sunday morning breakfast. She’d make things like cinnamon buns, breakfast cakes [like this one], croissants and ham, or a wife saver [which I didn't like much, but you can't win em all, right?] I woke up yesterday with a strong urge to whip up a warm breakfast that the two of us could enjoy.
I’d started experimenting with making my own cream cheese icing to replace the tofutti cream cheese I used for these, so I had extra sauce leftover for our breakfast. With a huge bag of zucchini just sitting in the fridge [I cannot pass up a sale on zucchini] and a produce drawer dedicated to 4-5 different types of apples, yesterdays’ breakfast was an easy choice. After baking Kevin and I played around with the camera a bit. Our biggest challenge: we couldn’t decide where to put the fork. His favorite was the bridge fork in the middle below.
Directions. Fresh pineapple cake ~ Cook, Snap, Repeat. Every weekday morning almost always starts the same: my husband wakes me up, I ask him what time it is, and I fall back asleep, knowing that 5 minutes later my little snooze alarm will tiptoe up to my side of the bed and say, "Hi Mommy. I'm going to brush my teeth and then I'll see you downstairs, okay? " It wasn't always like this. There was a long stretch of time when my alarm clock really was an alarm clock, purposely placed far away from my bed so that I wouldn't use the snooze button. Then came a time when my alarm clock was the crying of an infant, wanting to be fed or changed or cuddled ... and then the cooing of a wide-eyed baby at the colourful mobile floating above his crib ... and then the smiling face of a little monkey of a toddler who couldn't wait to start his day and had hoisted himself over the rails of his crib.
I've always thrived on routine, and being a parent has presented me with the constant challenge of finding routine in a life that is changing all the time. Add: Corn Cake Breakfast Stack with Bacon & Eggs (or whatever you like!) In a previous post, I shared my recipe for Corn Cake Toppers and showed how to serve them on top of chili and soup.

One of my very favorite characteristics of breakfast is it’s complete abandon of the typical savory-to-sweet meal rules and regulations. Breakfast is revolutionary. Breakfast is where a stack of sweet cakes dripping with maple syrup is considered a meal, and a cupcake, without the frosting, is called a “muffin”. Breakfast is where we allow ourselves to eat dessert, without calling it dessert.
And really, who doesn’t want to start their day off with dessert? Despite its whole wheat crust and fresh fruit, this breakfast pizza doesn’t just straddle the line between breakfast and dessert, it jumps over the line and runs so far into dessert territory that the border isn’t even in sight anymore.

Stylish Cuisine « Breakfast Apple Granola Crisp. We went to Shelter Island last weekend. It was a long weekend; Monday was Columbus Day. On the way out, we stopped at an apple orchard to pick apples. We arrived late in the afternoon, and unfortunately except for some very small apples, the trees had been picked bare. We typically go apple picking north of NYC, but the North fork of Long Island boasts some nice orchards, so we decided to give one a try. Although the apples were small, we did bring a big bag of them home. When apple season arrives, I’m always looking for great new apple recipes.
I found this recipe this morning. Our apartment smelled phenomenal when this was cooking today. Print This Recipe. Mini Maple-Glazed Doughnut Hole Muffins. The world seems to be divided into 2 kinds of people… those who like to celebrate their birthday and those who don’t. I definitely fall into the former category and The Husband falls into the latter, which works out pretty well for me as he also falls into a third category of husbands who would rather celebrate their wife’s birthday. Rock on. As I mentioned here, my birthday was last week, and it being a rather significant one, some planning was in order. This year I was in the mood for a road trip and decided on Chicago.
If one must turn 60, (gulp) I can think of worse ways to soothe the pain. Chicago was spectacularly fun… great food, gorgeous architecture, stunning fall color and did I mention really good food? Thank you, Chicago, for staging a most memorable and gloriously beautiful birthday week. But the birthday has come and gone, and reality has sort of grabbed me by the throat and is threatening to choke that vacation euphoria right outta me. Click here for a printable recipe. Homemade Dinner Rolls. I love dinner rolls as much as the next person, but the thing is, there’s only so much I can eat at Thanksgiving, and choices must be made.
So I usually forego the bread so I can load up on turkey, stuffing, potatoes, etc., etc., etc. Having said that, I’ve been trying out different dinner roll recipes and this one is, without a doubt, the best. This is how you want a dinner roll to be… just a little crusty on the outside, and very soft and yeasty on the inside. These rolls have a little heft to them, but are still light enough to eat several at one sitting. I know this from personal experience. The good people at Cook’s Illustrated are to be commended for this recipe. As they do with so many of the recipes coming out of their test kitchens however, they tend to over think and over-complicate, so I have streamlined the recipe without any adverse effects. I’ve already made a batch of these for our Thanksgiving dinner, and they’re waiting patiently in the freezer for their big day. 1. 2. Frangipane mini-cakes (Almond baby cakes) ~ Cook, Snap, Repeat.
I woke up today much the same as I have the past 11 mornings: thinking that today is the day that I would tell you about these little almond cakes. Then I crawled out of bed and did the usual, with a special twist this month: my mom is here! For the past week and half, she has been hearing our morning footsteps and whispers, and our little noises lead her downstairs. Soon after that, we wave the boys off to school and work, and then we sit down for breakfast.
Mom has had breakfast ritual for decades: fresh brewed coffee, yogurt with fruit, buttered bread with cream cheese and jam, sitting at table, taking her time. I guess you could also say that I have my own sort of breakfast ritual: oatmeal, fast. Hm. Then we start our day, and before I know it, it is already time to pick up the schoolboy, and again before I know it, it is time for dinner, and then again before I know it, it is bedtime. My conscience can no longer stand it, and neither can these cakes. ⅔ cup sugar. Lemon-filled Strawberry Muffins & I love my mom. I love the month of May (and not just because it ends with my birthday). It’s the month that I start truly believing that summer does exist and winter did not in fact kill it. It’s the month that flowers and foliage decorate the great outdoors. It’s the month that strawberries tiptoe into market and surprise us all over again with their sweet, juicy goodness. And of course, it’s the month where we devote a day to honoring mothers – those remarkable women who had the strength to bring us into the world, the patience to raise us and the love to carry us forward.
I am very blessed to have amazing women in my life to guide and support me. Thank you to Mom, Meme, Michel, Nana and Grandma Hunt for being the loving and inspiring women that you are. In celebration of Mother’s Day, I’ve whipped up a tasty little muffin recipe to make use of those fresh strawberries, with a for-your-own-good oomph of tangy lemon. * makes one dozen muffins Materials Methods 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.

A few weeks ago I was in NYC for literally less than 24 hours and one of the only things I was able to squeeze in other than what I was there for was a visit to Serendipity for one of my favorite treats…..the Frozen Hot Chocolate. It is massive, chocolaty and perfectly ice-y. When I got back home I told the boys all about the treat I had and said I would re-create our own version! So…..I got to work Here is your line up. Please add one more hot chocolate to the picture. I ended up using 5 packets. I had my little guy hop on the counter and help whip the cream and sugar. Like so Let’s start with the milk. Cocoa time!
