Galette – What? … Being Martha
Back to backing…truth be told, I was planning on making a coconut cream pie for my grandfather who is in town visiting. However, I didn’t review the recipe until right before I was going to start. AND, discovered that the coconut cream pie required a 3 hour chill time. ooops….I didn’t figure that into my… read more »
Perfect Fall Appetizer – Blue Cheese Bacon Dip
As we slide into the entertaining season, I am always searching for a new appetizer to try. You all know how much I like to bake. My second favorite thing is appetizers. I like the detail work that comes with appetizers and the presentation of the appetizers for your guests. I found this new appetizer… read more »
Quilting Binding Tutorial – by Machine!
I while back I posted a quilting binding tutorial which is the way I have been binding quilts for as long as I have quilted. My method of quilt binding was effective, but does involve a significant amount of hand stitching. I was cruising around on etsy and came across a Pat Sloan tutorial for… read more »

Cinnamon Swirl Bread….Being Martha
I know it is still summer, but I am trying to convince myself otherwise. Maybe a pumpkin spice candle burning and some bread in the oven would make me forget that it isn’t 90 degrees outside? Just maybe for a little while. I settled on making the Cinnamon Raisin Bread. Each time I bake, I… read more »
Oatmeal Raisin Cookies…Being Martha
This is one of the best recipes I have ever tried for Oatmeal Raisin Cookies…it makes the softest and chewiest cookies! Make sure you have maple syrup before you start this recipe! You can find the recipe on Page 77 of the Martha Stewart Baking Handbook or you can find it here! Oatmeal Raisin Cookies… read more »
Let them EAT Cupcakes…
Let me preface this post first by saying that this is an awesome recipe. Not only is it really yummy, but it is a bit different than I am used to and I don’t mean different than “out of a box.” Technically, this recipe is called “White Cupcakes” with “Swiss Meringue Buttercream”. You can find… read more »
