This is the cake I prepared for my Thanksgiving dinner this year. I chose it mainly because of rosemary in the recipe. It sounded so intriguing for me, as I am not used to use it in desserts.
Besides, this recipe doesn’t require mixer and can be put together in 20 minutes […]
I already wrote some time ago that I love apples, especially in delicious bakery items. It hasn’t changed! I am still a big fan and realizing how small my current apple recipe collection is has been a bit surprising to me. I have few more recipes I am working now on, but I’ve also made […]
As a dietitian I like to know how many calories food has. I forget the number 15 minutes later, but still, I like to know. However sometimes I wonder what’s the point? Wouldn’t blissful ignorance be better? 🙂 Oh.. I am not making big deal out of it. It is just a […]
May is a happy month, don’t you think? The weather is nice, spring in its full bloom, plenty of fresh produce around and live just seems easier. I love this time of year, although I think I am a bit lazier then – trying to enjoy every minute of sun and warmth, […]

I forgot to buy bread today and there is not enough time to bake one, as I need something to eat for breakfast. So what do I do? Muffins, aka oatmeal in a muffin form. This recipe I found at and adapted from Simply Recipes and it is perfect for […]
We’ve moved fair amount of times and the problem that always arises is where I can buy good bread (read: similar to what I am used to eat). The answer is not always satisfactory, as the store may be too far away, or the bread is not so good, or there may be not such […]
I am at the point where I need to research for new recipes, as I went through almost all my regular ones. For this purpose I have a stack of magazines clippings and cookbooks at home that I go through in search of something that would fit my mood. Do you know what I mean? […]
