I love spinach lasagna, Mr. G not so much; so I decided to use my favorite spinach lasagna recipe and add some ground sirloin to it. He was all for it until he saw the spinach but he ate it anyway (he may have just been hungry). I located this recipe on Allrecipes nine years…

SMS: Puff Pastry Caramel Apple Pie
Today’s Sweet Melissa Sunday was hosted by Susan of Baking by Sue. She chose Double-Crusted Caramel Apple Pie. I decided to not make the double crust, but to go with a puff pastry crust, making the pie a little lighter. I also halved the recipe. The pie was tasty. The caramel sauce was subtle, but…
A New Chronicle…
I told you all that there was a perfectly good reason for the lack of posts. Well, I guess it’s time to spill the beans, that I have a bun in the oven! I am currently in my 16th week of pregnancy. The lack of blogging wasn’t because of horrible food aversion (luckily, I didn’t…
Thank You Secret Baker!

Butternut Squash Soup with Ginger
I bought some pre-cut butternut squash from Costco and put it in the freezer because I wasn’t quite ready to make soup yet. I was ready this week! Buying it pre-cut saved a lot of time! This recipe was really good; even Mr. G said it was good (even though I have only seen him…
