Pecan Pie Muffins
The American Pie Council National Championships are about a month away and this year I get to be a judge! I can’t even tell you how excited I am for this honor.

The Amazing Amish Cinnamon Bread Alternative
As I’m writing this post, I’m memory-listening to a little boy singing his favorite song from his favorite movie. Memory-listening, for those who don’t know, is a lot like when you get a song stuck in your head (now referred to as an earworm), but it’s a song you’ve heard in the past. In this…
