Mom of three who loves to try new recipes. I love to cook pastries and breads, but I use whatever shortcuts necessary. I am always looking for a good recipe for whatever is in season. My mom makes the most wonderful Southern dressing on Thanksgiving (I really can't stand any other kind) and on Christmas it's not dinner (because, really, Santa has about pooped out by then!) but breakfast that is the main meal of the day. We have Cinnamon Syrup and Apple French Toast that may very well be the highlight of my husband's year! Either there aren't any or my memory is truly shot. Possibly both! Too many to list; maybe I will write a book!
