Saturday Blog Showcase – Double Chocolate Pecan Pie/Tart

Welcome to this weeks “Saturday Blog Showcase“. Lori of All That Splatters and I are share hosting.  This week it is my turn.  I’m showcasing two blogs – Rollin in the Dough and Annie’s Eats.  I was looking for a dessert recipe and found a picture of a  beautiful Double Chocolate Pecan Pie on Rollin…

Hot Beef Sandwiches with Homemade Fries

I love diner food.  If I were to ever have my own restaurant it would be “Moe’s Diner”. LOL! I’d serve, beef on a bun, Roast chicken and turkey, Hot sandwiches, Shepherds Pie,  Stews, Pot Pies , Pork roasts and ribs, Prime Rib and Yorkshire Puddings and desserts would be bread and butter pudding, rice…

Bake Day – Bagels and Baguettes

Moe has been requesting that I bake a batch of bagels (tongue twister), so today was the day.    What I love about baking bagels is that the whole process from start to finish takes not much more than three hours.   Three trays, one topped with sesame seeds, another with poppyseeds and a third…

Stuffed Boneless Turkey Breast

I stopped at the grocery store on the way to work to  pick up something for dinner.  I was leaning towards roasting a chicken.   But instead, I bought a small boneless, skinless turkey breast.  First  thing I did when I got home from work was  make a quick bread stuffing.  I cut up what was…

Thibeault’s Pizzeria

 I baked bread on Wednesday with dough that was made on Tuesday.  I saved enough to make a pizza.  The difference between a crust made with fresh dough and one that has been given a long cold fermentation is night and day. The crust on last night’s pizza was perfect, if I do say so…

Oatmeal & Apple Buttermilk Muffins – Saturday Blog Showcase

I had some buttermilk that I wanted to use in a breakfast treat so I went  looking for a “buttermilk” muffin recipe.   Lots of options.   Some combined buttermilk and oatmeal, one of Moe’s favourite combinations. And another recipe  contained apples which was an added appeal (no pun intended).  I had just about settled on one…

First Weekly Bread Post of 2010

I doubled up on my bread baking just before Christmas and had enough of our favourite baguettes in the freezer to get us through until this week.  Took the last loaf out yesterday for Moe’s breakfast.   So now I’m back to baking on my days off.  Truth be told, I’m glad.  I really enjoy the…

Celebrating First Year Blog Anniversary with a New Recipe Index

My first year anniversary  came and went last week.(January 5th)  Hard to believe that a whole year of blogging has gone by so quickly. I guess it is true what they say,  time really does fly when you are having fun. Along with starting year two with  the Saturday Blog Showcase, I  have also created…

Additional recipes can be found on  Thibeault’s Table – The Recipe Collection. For easy access you will find the Index for these recipes included at the bottom of this…
