Cinnamon Bun Joy
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, May 02, 2012
The Pioneer Woman has hers. Many other people have theirs. All get rave reviews from various quarters. And I have a recipe too. I didn’t, like, INVENT it. But I tweaked it to (what I consider to be) perfection, so I thought I’d share.
Cinnamon rolls. Yum! It’s Easter, isn’t it? The season of rejoicing is a great time to make these babies.
I like to make them for Sunday breakfast, because I can do... READ MORE
Bakin' Bacon
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Wednesday, March 21, 2012
I love to eat bacon, but you know what I don’t love? Standing over the stove while it cooks. And that job, never fun, is especially complicated by having to keep multiple young children away from the hot grease.
A few years ago I tried other ways to cook bacon. Microwaving couldn’t give me the crispy texture I like. Baking, according to the most common recipe I found, yielded strips that were nearly... READ MORE
Good Morning Noontime
Posted by Celeste Behe in Food on Friday, April 01, 2011
There’s a reason that many restaurants serve breakfast around the clock, and it isn’t only that burly all-night truckers like French toast, too.
It’s that breakfast often contains both sweet and savory elements, making for an appealing meal that wakens all of the taste buds. Good Morning, Noontime sandwiches introduce a bit of breakfast sweetness to the noonday meal, while keeping it well-balanced.... READ MORE

Back to School Breakfasts
Posted by Danielle Bean in Food on Wednesday, September 01, 2010
It’s that time of year—a time for breaking into new routines and getting a move on in the morning.
For me, when it comes to back-to-school breakfasts, the key is finding something ...
1. my kids will actually eat.
2. quick.
3. painless to prepare.
4. nutritious enough to quiet my inner mother-guilt.
Here are some recipes I have been researching lately that I think fit the bill:
Cornbread (even kids... READ MORE
Takes The Cake

Among the delights of living in freedom is that whatever activity can be devised, somewhere someone will take it to undreamed of heights of perfection.
Take for example Jim of Jim’s Pancakes, who has elevated the simple act of making breakfast for his daughter into an art form.
The ferris wheel is only the to-date most complicated construction. Click through to see more delightful examples of his... READ MORE
Do You Love Your Toaster?
Posted by Danielle Bean in Homemaking on Wednesday, May 12, 2010
In the discussion following my recent post about my re-found love of waffles, Jamie asks about feeding the masses at breakfast time:
Danielle…or any mom of many, for that matter…do you have just one waffle maker? or several? or how do you make waffles in a timely fashion for the whole brood?? I LOVE the idea of homemade waffles and know my ten little ones would as well, but dread the notion of... READ MORE
Wild for Waffles
Posted by Danielle Bean in Food on Tuesday, May 11, 2010
So I got a brand new super awesome waffle maker for Mother’s Day.
It’s the third one I’ve owned, but I am thrilled to have it. Pancakes and french toast are nice, but I find myself wanting to make waffles again and again. Since my last waffle maker broke over a year ago, I am little out of practice with my creative waffle baking. Thus far, I have been happy to use the very basic, easy recipe that... READ MORE
Breakfast on the Go
Posted by Arwen Mosher in Food on Monday, February 22, 2010
I’d love it if I could eat a good breakfast every morning. Some days when the kids cooperate, I do manage to sit down for a fried egg or a bowl of cereal. But many days it’s not possible, and I end up scarfing down a piece of toast while directing potty trips and putting the day’s first load of laundry in the washer.
This is why I love the idea of a granola bar. It’s like a breakfast of oatmeal that... READ MORE
New Orleans Baked French Toast

Do you have something special planned for Mardi Gras?
I like to mark the day with something out of the ordinary and it’s customary to enjoy a rich treat that uses up the sugar and eggs before beginning a Lenten fast.
With those thoughts in mind, here’s something simple and yummy I am putting together tonight for tomorrow morning’s Mardi Gras breakfast (I got it from the awesomely inspiring Bake until Bubbly: The Ultimate Casserole Cookbook... READ MORE
