Herbs And Spices - Meaty Thick Man Chili

Contrary to the title, it doesn't have men in it. However it is a man's best friend, it's thick, not as tomato-ey as most chili's. Best served with fresh bread.

Breakfast And Brunch - Individual Baked Eggs

A very easy idea with a minimum of fuss or muss for any number of people. Individual Baked Eggs surrounded by a strip of bacon, and topped with a square of cheese.

Great not having splatters all over, and being able to do 12 or more eggs at one time.

Bread - Sourdough Scones

While trying to use up some excess sourdough starter, I developed this recipe. The scones come out really tender and moist and my kids love the cinnamon-y taste from the apple pie spice.
