Full confession, we don’t know who Grandma Reimer is. We got this recipe from our friend Katherine Meyer, but we’ve always known these as Grandma Reimer’s Gingerbread Cookies, so that that is what they are. Regardless of whose Grandma came up with the recipe, these gingerbread cookies are a...

Fast and easy Shepard’s Pie.
Okay, first things first, if you do not use lamb you are not making shepards pie, you are making cottage pie. This recipe works for both but it was originally meant for ground lamb and not ground beef. Second, this is a super-fast semi-homemade recipe that we like to...
Great Pumpkin Cookies
This was the secret family recipe of the Shreves family in western Sonoma County before being given to us and altered slightly. The reason that Sonoma County is important is that these cookies will look vaguely pumpkin shaped and you can use royal icing or decorating icing to make...
Sourdough Pancakes
Back to School is always hard for parents and kids alike. We know that most mornings we are barely making it out the door on time, the kids are pulling shoes on as they run to the car and everyone has a toaster strudel or similar thing in their...
Easy & Yummy Chinese Chicken Salad

It becomes tempting to keep cooking these because they don’t seem to be done after 10 minutes (cookies) or...
Beulah’s Grilled Peaches
Ok, we admit this recipe is cheating because it’s more about what you put on the peaches than how to cook them. But hey, it’s a great customizable desert that you can do on the grill! Also, this recipe comes from Beulah (one of our marketing gurus) and...

We know it’s March and you want a recipe for Corned Beef, but these days the beef comes pre-corned and has directions printed on it. Instead, we are going to walk through how to make that other St. Patricks day staple (not Guinness) soda bread. So here’s the...
