When I want a soft delicious frosted sugar cookie…only my Grandma June’s sugar cookie recipe will do. She used to make us GIANT heart shaped sugar cookies for Valentine’s Day, and NO OTHER Valentine cookie will ever taste as sweet. Grandma’s sugar cookies are perfect for cutting and frosting,…

Fruit Pizza Flag Recipe
Well things are gonna be different this summer, but that doesn’t mean we cannot enjoy some good BBQ food…and for ME, that means fruit pizza. My mom makes a super yummy version of strawberry pizza that has been a family staple since I was a kid, BUT it takes more time in the kitchen and LESS time…well NOT in the kitchen. So I have adopted this super simple cheater version that has become a fun tradition for MY family. And the best part is that it doesn’t have to be a flag, OR a full sized sheet.

Crockpot Cinnamon Applesauce
Living in the middle of an orchard has one MAJOR benefit…ALL THE FRUIT WE CAN EAT!!! BUTTTT…there is a drawback too. Sometimes during the Fall, I start to sound like Forrest Gump…apples, apple pie, apple cake, apple crisp, apple sauce…and then we get to the point where we don’t wanna see another apple…UNTIL NEXT YEAR:) But since we are JUST getting started on our store of apples for the season, it is crockpot cinnamon applesauce on repeat at Orchard Slope!!! Just as a warning, this IS NOT a healthy recipe in ANY way…besides the fact that it contains apples. There is nothing diet, or keto (actually I have no clue…

Simple 2 Ingredient Pumpkin Cake
If you know me at ALL, you probably know that I DO NOT love making dinner. Cooking is just something that I do to survive. I REALLY don’t LOVE it. BUT BAKING…that is a WHOLE other story. Because no matter HOW hard I try to make dinner taste good…it is NEVER gonna be as good as ANYTHING with chocolate chips or a cup of sugar…it just ISN’T!! The only thing that stands in the way of me and baking…TIME. I swear every time I find a recipe, it calls for ingredients I DON’T have, takes 2 hours, and uses words like sift and let stand…both of which I do not…
