Two years ago, for Christmas, I was gifted a book called Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day. I baked out of it a few times over the month or two after Christmas, and then I set the book aside. I returned to my normal ways of baking bread, mostly […]

Deliciously Creamy Pumpkin Soup
I have never made a pumpkin soup before- other than my pumpkin and black bean chili. I’ve never even had an inkling to make a pumpkin soup, but the other day we were watching BBC America, and watched Chef Gordon Ramsay whip together a luscious looking pumpkin soup, and I […]
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas from the Tummy Treasure home to yours. I hope your Christmas is wonderful and blessed, and full of joy.
Orange Slice Cookies
This cookie started out as something completely different. Then I changed up a few things in the recipe, and then I remembered how much I truly hate using my cookie press, so I turned the cookie into a plain old slice-and-bake icebox cookie. And the end result is a wonderful […]
Cranberry Oat Bars
I wasn’t going to do any baking this year. I really wasn’t. I just decided that I didn’t want a mountain of baked goods sitting around waiting to be eaten. So instead, I decided the kids and I would do our Rich Rolled Sugar Cookies, and that would be it. […]
Cinnamon Raisin Buns
Today’s recipe is the first one from the cookbook challenge that I really had issues with. Mainly, the recipe was really lacking in direction. As you’ll see at the end when I post it as it is, you proof your yeast in warm water, but then the recipe never actually […]
Peanut Rice
As I continue on my journey through the Woman’s Day Collector’s Cookbook from 1960, I’m finding it a little difficult to choose which recipes I want to prepare. There are some recipes that are way out there, that I know once prepared, no one will really want to eat, and […]
Popcorn Balls
About two weeks ago, the kids and I were walking through the grocery store when Zander’s eyes lighted upon a package of popcorn balls. His eyes were full of desire, and I almost grabbed the package to put in my cart when MY eyes lighted upon the price tag nearby. […]
Cherry Chip Cookies
It’s been ages since I’ve had a cherry chip cookie. These used to be a regular feature on the school menus when I was in school. Considering that I ate cold lunch all through high school, it’s been a very long time since I had a cherry chip cookie. So […]
Carrots Parmesan
Here is one wickedly easy recipe from The Woman’s Day Collector’s Cookbook that packed a punch as far as flavor is concerned. I was looking for something really simple to accompany some homemade chicken strips last night for dinner, and was also looking for something to cross off another mark […]
Perfect Vanilla Fudge
With two very busy weeks behind us, I decided it was time to clean out the fridge. Any Thanksgiving leftovers lurking about are being disposed of, and I’m also assessing exactly how much holiday baking and treat-making I’ll be doing this year. I’d decided to scale back a bit, because […]
Curried Cheese
The next time I decide to start a cookbook challenge during the holiday season- someone please remind me that it’s the holiday season. Busy-ness aside though, I was determined to not let this week get away without a second recipe from my Woman’s Day Collector’s Cookbook Challenge. I decided to […]
