Beef Tallow
I’m going to show you how to make “Liquid Gold” today otherwise known as beef tallow. If you’re the type of person who has ever saved your leftover bacon grease (or at least remember your mom and grandma doing that) and know how much flavor that adds when you cook with it – you’re going…

Graham Cracker Cookies
I have a very special 3 part summer treat for you. You see, I took the classic summer dessert – the s’more and turned it into an ice-cream sandwich. Along the way, I created Graham Cracker Cookies and Toasted Marshmallow Ice-Cream recipes that are both winners in their own right. I’m going to post all…

Blueberry Oatmeal Pancakes with Almond Butter Syrup
I love breakfast. Unfortunately, I just don’t make it very often. Yes, I eat breakfast every day but most days that consists of a bowl of oatmeal at my desk.
