10 Easy Mid-Week Treats, Because We Need It! 🫢🏼


Hi Reader!

Ten one-bowl bakes that go from a quick mix in the kitchen to satisfaction in no time...my favorite way to bake! Scroll down to see all of them!

I made Lemon Blueberry Scones this past weekend, for Easter, and I can confirm they are fabulous! I didn't have any buttermilk and so I squeezed 2 tbsp (26 g) fresh lemon juice into a liquid measuring cup and then added 2% milk to 3/4 cup (180 g) total (milk + lemon juice) and it gave them even more lemon flavor! I highly recommend. πŸ‹

Just finished rewatching Succession (LOVE), and loving The Pitt & Rooster (HBO Max). Loving this nightgown (I sleep hot), robe and slippers. Starting to get strawberries in the garden (!!!) and I have my dear friend Kim coming today to spend the remainder of the week wine tasting, relaxing, cookie eating and tv binging! I can't wait.

My current freezer stash (for her visit) are the above mentioned blueberry scones, dirty chai snickerdoodles and a cookie that's coming to you this weekend (it's a good one!).

Wishing I would have made this strawberry quick jam to go with the scones...but such is life...

And lastly, everyone should read this article, Can Sam Altman Be Trusted.

Sending love!

"Just finished making these muffins. They turned out perfectly and so very delicious. We had a warm one right out of the oven. The chocolate mini pieces were a bit gooey, and the texture was perfect. The cinnamon and nutmeg topping with more mini chips was the β€œIcing on the cake”! Thanks for another great recipe, Rebecca."

"This recipe is amazing!!! I’ve made it twice now and the first time I served at my small group meeting from church. Everyone wanted the recipe. I was disappointed that it was so good, there everyone wanted seconds and there was none leftover. I had to make again and it was even better and we didn’t have to share! Super-moist and chocolatey!"

Hi Reader! Hello, beautiful! This week I want to share a recipe that I'm always excited to bake: my favorite Lemon Raspberry Loaf.
