#Bundtamonth: Strawberry Jam Glazed Spiced Pound Cake with Buttermilk and Orange
This Bundt-A-Month was tough for me. Not because I don’t like jam, the theme (I do!!), but because figuring out how to successfully incorporate the jam into the cake was hard for me. My first cake was a pretty big flop. Like throw it out for the birds and squirrels kind of flop! It was…
Buttermilk Glazed Buttermilk Chocolate Snack Cake; OXO Brownie Spatula
There are compliments, and then there are compliments. Guys, I received just about the sweetest, biggest, best compliment I have ever received on anything I have ever baked or cooked for this cake.

#BundtaMonth: Lemon Mint Rhubarb Breakfast Bundt Cake with Blueberries
Every May I feel unprepared for the insane spring fever. My husband, as a matter of fact, does not believe spring fever is real. I told him he needed to volunteer some in the school right now. I’ve had to pull out my Mom Voice more than once reading to Alex’s class in the library….
Traditional Irish American Soda Bread
Soda bread: it’s not just for St. Patrick’s Day anymore. OK, so that is a little misleading, because as usual I did make this for St. Patrick’s Day, only, you know, on St. Patrick’s Day, leading me to not post it until after the holiday. But seriously, as soon as I bit into one of these all I…
