This was the last remaining pancake recipe from Simply in Season. Which is kind of a good thing, since in the summer I always have herbs and greens that I need to use up, and the easiest way to do that is in scrambled eggs.

OK, so I had told myself that I wouldn’t make any more recipes out of the spring section of Simply in Season until I finished up the autumn and winter. But this morning, I just HAD to make scones. And there was this recipe. Just waiting to be made. I had all the ingredients. I have never made scones before. Well, maybe the calorie count would sway me. After all, I’ve been tricked by that before – scones seem so {Read More}

I’m finally home! There’s nothing like sleeping in your own bed, and eating something from your own kitchen. So this morning I decided to whip up some oat bran muffins from the new edition of Simply in Season.
