Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ

It's true, if you make any one of these memorable spring cakes for friends they'll be asking for them again and again, for years to come!

OMGoodness! I followed the recipe exactly (which I rarely do) and it was delicious! My husband had to have seconds but I resisted. It will be perfect to make for a brunch I am hosting next week! I love your recipes and love that they are different from others I see online! Thank you, thank you!

Best spring cake ever! Iโ€™m a nurse and made this to bring to the unit and people remember it years later and have asked me to make it again many times! I love baking but this was my first attempt at a citrus flavored cake and it turned out amazing!

So glad rhubarb is in season again so I could try this recipe. We loved it! Pretty as it is good!

I love to make delicious food, photograph it, and write about it, but mostly, I just love to EAT. Isnโ€™t that what itโ€™s all about? My recipes are bold and vibrant, but totally approachable ~ and my philosophy? We should all have the tools to feed ourselves well, and the confidence to cut loose a little in the kitchen. Food should be fun!

Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ I'm all about rice bowls today. Rice, and rice substitutes like cauliflower rice and broccoli rice are perfect for lighter spring dinners. Teriyaki Chicken with Broccoli Rice The broccoli rice base for these teriyaki chicken bowls was a wonderful discovery. Iโ€™ve riced cauliflower many times for lower carb dishes like my Mediterranean Cauliflower Couscous Salad and my Cauliflower Rice Tabbouleh, but for this recipe I decided to give the technique a try with broccoli.

Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ Today I'm sharing a new cookie with a really nice soft texture and a flavor that can only be described as the essence of spring! Brown Sugar Rhubarb Cookies With all of the dozens of rhubarb recipes that have come out of the Great Island kitchen over the years, there has only ever been one other rhubarb cookie (roasted rhubarb baci di dama) ~ until now! And itโ€™s high time: these unique soft batch brown sugar cookies loaded with diced rhubarb are amazing. Theyโ€™re easy to throw...

Hey friendsโฃ๏ธ We all have at least one kid in our life...our inner kid! Funfetti Cookie Bars I patterned these funfetti cookie bars after my Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars, one of my favorite desserts ever. I have to be careful around them because I canโ€™t eat just one. And, as predicted, these cookie bars have the same effect on me ๐Ÿ™‚ I LOVE BAR DESSERTS! Theyโ€™re more satisfying than a cookie, but not as decadent as a piece of cakeโ€ฆthey just hit the spot. Hummingbird Cake Bars Creamy Lemon...
