Staying Warm, Cozy Baking, and a Few Favorites for Snowy Days
|
Hi Reader! I wanted to check in this week, especially with this massive snowstorm affecting so many people right now. Over 200 million are expected to be impacted, and chances are, many of us are right in the middle of it. We’re praying that everyone stays safe, warm, and well through these next few days. As for us, we’re doing what we always do when a big storm is coming. Making sure the animals are settled, extra feed and bedding ready, and taking care of any little repairs that need mending before the weather hits. There’s a bit of stress in making sure we haven’t missed anything, but we’re doing our best to prepare now before the storm moves in. With all this time at home, I thought I’d share a few cozy recipes you might enjoy baking while the snow falls. The Best Sourdough Pretzels (Easy Overnight Recipe) Best Easy Fudgy Sourdough Brownies Discard Recipe Sourdough Discard Apple Crumble Coffee Cake Recipe This is one I’ve been making for about 15 years now, and it’s still one of my absolute favorites! Warm apples, cozy spices, and that crumble topping make it perfect for winter mornings. And one more thing I wanted to share, especially with how dry and cold this season can be. Tallow Face Balm for Fine Lines and Mature Skin I hope wherever you are, you’re staying safe, warm, and tucked in with something good baking in the oven. Sending love and prayers from our little corner of the world, I'd love to have you follow along here: |

Good morning Reader! We will be attending the maple festival this weekend in the Laurel Highlands, and you could not ask for better weather for it.

With the smell of maple in the air across a large part of the country right now, I thought it would be fitting to share a few breakfast recipes that pair perfectly with this time of year....
