This Fresh Cherry Cobbler recipe is not made with cherry pie filling, this actually uses fresh apples and fresh cherries. I wanted to bake with the fresh cherries that are in season right now and I thought that this would be a nice way to incorporate the cherry taste. I made this the other morning to go with our morning coffee. I have not made a cobbler or coffee cake in… Continue Reading
Easy Crepe Recipe
Summer is a great time to make this Easy Crepe Recipe. I love to fill them with fresh fruit, ice cream or a combination of both.

By the way, did you know that Granny Smith apples were first propagated in Australia? So I guess… Continue Reading
Strawberry Weight Watcher Friendly Dessert
I made a one point Weight Watcher dessert last night. It was by accident, sort of. You see with summer coming up, I have been trying to eat a salad as a main meal several days a week to eat healthier and shed a couple of pounds.
