One last summer party
I started writing this post over a week ago. That is before Hurricane Harvey crashed into Texas and changed everything in our world. Thankfully my family is safe and dry but so many others around us are not. If you want to help support to disaster relief you can donate here or to the American Red Cross. Anything you can give will be used to help restore a family!! Not too long ago I was asked what my favorite dessert was and I really had to think about it. You see there is not just one that stands out above everything else, but there are a few that I crave.…

I bet you can’t eat just one
This just might be one of the easiest ( & most favorite) cookie recipes I have ever made. They are so good I even got some of the healthiest people I know to eat them all up, leaving the kids with just a few. OK, let me explain. For the kids (I thought) We were having a fun BBQ and get together with some sweet friends and their kids at my brother and sis-in-laws house. Honestly as much as I am over there we should just start calling it my second home. Anyway my brother was going to grill and I told them I would bring dessert. The trick to…

A new way to sundae
Confession time…I never once had a traditional strawberry shortcake until I was in my 20’s. Growing up my mom and grandmothers made their own version of “shortcake” with pie crust. Yep you read that right…pie crust. It is all about the crust My dad’s most favorite dessert is crust and strawberries. It is really as simple as it sounds….it is pie crust topped with chopped strawberries. The key is the super flaky and very tender pie crust, and how we cut it. Trust me this will change how you think about pie crust! Double duty crust recipe My MeeMaw and Mom have been using this recipe for both these…
