This easy Almond Pear Baked Oatmeal is the perfect breakfast for your busy week. It’s packed with healthy ingredients and can be made ahead of time and quickly reheated! Because I can’t resist a good deal, and because the Commissary has been offering them for 59 cents a pound for the past couple weeks, I’ve…
Quinoa Breakfast Cookies
When Nick and I were at his Dad’s house in Missouri over the 4th of July, Kelly made us some Quinoa Breakfast Cookies. Being the lover of quinoa that I am, I was instantly intrigued. Well, it turns out they aren’t made with whole quinoa, but quinoa flour! They were also awesome, and I knew…
Dad’s Perfect Pancakes
I’ve been craving pancakes for the last couple weekends now. Problem was, I didn’t have any syrup. It kills me how expensive maple syrup is in Oklahoma (actually, I’m surprised I can even find it), so I’ve held out. I refuse to eat Aunt Jemimah’s and anyone (especially from New England) who eats that sludge…
Lemon Poppy Seed Scones

More interesting than the recipe, though, is how these poppy seeds ended up in my kitchen. Well, something kinda cool happened recently. I started this blog to keep in touch with our…
Andi’s ‘Kini Bread

Cherry Berry Scones
One of my best friends, Erin, recently started a blog! She was always making delicious food and I kept pressuring her to start one… it finally worked! I’m pumped because I love being able to keep up with everything my friends are doing, but I also love finding new recipes! So of course I decided…
Farm Fresh Eggs and Sweet Potato Hash
From May to September, Enid has a Farmer’s Market that’s open on Saturdays. This past weekend, we decided to check it out. I’m used to the Farmer’s Markets of Florida, full of freshly picked oranges and grapefruits, and a plethora of other local produce. That’s sort of what I was expecting in Enid, but I…
Blueberry Muffin Baked Oatmeal
This Blueberry Muffin Baked Oatmeal is a great make-ahead breakfast that’s easy to meal prep. Packed with fiber and healthy fats, it will keep you full all morning! I haven’t been very creative with breakfast lately, so I decided to change that this morning. Blueberry muffins are one of my go-to’s, but (depending on how…
