Cinnamon Rolls – Bites From Other Blogs

Pioneer Woman Cinnamon Roll Recipe

While looking for great fall recipes to share, I realized that there are more than enough cinnamon roll recipes out there to justify an entire collection of cinnamon roll recipes.   I love cinnamon rolls (who doesn’t) and I have fond memories of my great grandmother kneading dough and making her famous cinnamon rolls when I was a child. My favorite cinnamon roll recipe?  The ever popular Pioneer Woman’s Cinnamon Roll recipe.   My daughter and I made so many pans of {Read More}

Favorite Fall Flavors – Bites From Other Blogs

lowfat-pumpkin-muffin-recipe--500x500

Since I don’t want to completely turn this blog into Halloween Central, well, at least not yet, I figured I would focus more on fall in general today.   There is no time of the year that I enjoy baking more than I do in the fall.   Apples, pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, sweet potatoes, caramel, pies, breads…   The cooler weather (feels like a pipe dream at this point), crisp breezes, spending time outdoors, stores carrying actual canned pumpkin and not just the {Read More}

The Best Brownies – Bites From Other Blogs

Brownies are a thing of beauty.   They are without a doubt the dessert that disappears the most quickly in my home.   It’s rare that a pan of brownies lasts more than 24 hours around here, and I am completely content eating them straight from the pan – just give me a fork and we can call it good.    And a warm brownie with a cool scoop of ice cream?  That’s damn near perfection the way I see it.    So {Read More}

Halloween Dessert Table Ideas – Bites From Other Blogs

While looking for fun Halloween recipes to share, I keep coming across the most amazing dessert tables and ideas that are too cute not to share.   Spooky eats and sweet treats?   Yes please!   If it was socially acceptable I’d have my home decorated for Halloween year round!  Heck, I may even be secretly hoping that one day my spooky, dark and all things scary loving daughter will find her prince charming and decide on a Halloween wedding (and a Nightmare {Read More}

Halloween Treats & Sweets – Bites From Other Blogs – Part 1

halloween-candy-e1287621536452

I told myself I’d wait until October.  I knew that was unrealistic, and revised it until September.   But I just can’t help myself, I’m doing Halloween treats now.  It may be 115 degrees, and the middle of summer, but it’s the thoughts of fall, pumpkin, ghosts and gobblins that gets me through the miserable monsoon days.   I adore all things Halloween, and I’m starting to see spooky treats and sweets and just have to share them.   Knowing my love {Read More}

Pumpkin Recipe Collection – Bites From Other Blogs

low-fat-pumpkin-muffins--500x500

Around this time every year, I start craving fall.   I love fall.  It’s my favorite time of year.  I want to put a pot of chili on the stove and some pumpkin pies in the oven.  I want to decorate with jack o lanterns, plant mums and plan costumes while wearing a sweater and cozy boots. But then I remember that I live in Phoenix, that it’s 149 degrees and that fall is probably six months away.   And with {Read More}

While we do not follow a gluten free diet in my home, we do have a number of friends who either have gluten allergies or celiacs, or follow a gluten and casein free diet.   I know there are a number of readers who are always looking for gluten free recipes, so I figured I would do a gluten free recipe collection. Even if you do not eat gluten free, trust me, check out these recipes.   Any thoughts or ideas I {Read More}

Cheesecake Recipe Collection – Bites From Other Blogs

July2011 103whatsinit

While putting together all of these fun recipe collections, I keep coming across the most amazing looking cheesecake recipes.   For some reason cheesecake intimidates me.  I hear terms like “water bath” and shut down.   Some days I can barely get my kids bathed, so getting a bath for a cheesecake seems like an unobtainable goal at best.   But I’ve seen SO many recipes that just look like decadence on a dish, that I think I’m going to give in and {Read More}
