By Marilyn Moll, on March 26th, 2012 I couldn’t believe my first attempt at Artisan Bread came out so beautifully with such a small effort on my part.
My neighbor received the following recipe from her son and she wasn’t happy with the results. So she gave me a copy of the recipe and VOILA. Delicious bread with no kneading. This recipe […]

By Marilyn Moll, on December 12th, 2011 So my friend Patty and I planned an all day baking/cooking marathon for Saturday. We got a little bit of a late start – that was fine with me. Patty had shopped for the ingredients and planned to bring her mom’s tried and true recipe for Pecan tarts.

To do or not to do, that is the question! To get a real tree or an artificial tree was the choice Mary and I wrestled with over the Black Friday week-end. My late husband, Duane, insisted we decorate for the holidays with a REAL Christmas tree each year.
