Happy New Year all! May 2015 shine on you with love and happiness! Did you all eat too much and feel like you're needing to lose that fat gut? Well, sorry to say, you've hit on the wrong blog then! I read a meme the other day that would bring a smile to your face.

I realized that my dessert section has been severely neglected, and I had to do something about it. It isn't that I don't like dessert, but I'm definitely much more of a savory person. I guess my sweet tough has never fully grown in, although a few months ago I went on a no sugar ...
The Mr. and I made a goal to purposefully use more seasonal fruits and veggies this year. We've been coming up with all kinds of ways to use up the peaches from mom's tree. We re-visited and updated the Peach apricot crumble recipe, you probably saw the lattice peach pie, and now this.
