We love to have cookouts and we love our vegetarian friends! When we’re grilling out together, I get so excited to make vegetarian recipes even though we are meat-eaters. It just doesn’t feel like a cookout if we’re all eating separate meals, and adding a few extra veggies is great for everyone. Labor Day is coming […]
If the coffee places are doing the pumpkin drinks in August, I think it’s fair to make pumpkin muffins in August, even if it’s still blazing hot. I love pumpkin and keep it on hand year round to make muffins, breads, sauces, and more. I was craving a little bit of a treat but didn’t […]
