Easy Carrot Soup!

Carrots, carrots, carrots – I love ‘em.  Maybe it’s the sweet crunch.  Maybe it’s that they are the perfect portable guilt-free snack.  Maybe it’s my red hair – who knows?  One thing I do know is that when you take carrots and onions and thyme and chicken broth and cook and blend them up into a thick, creamy, dreamy soup, something magic happens.  Carrot-wise.

You know what’s good?  Besides bacon?  Bacon mixed up with blue cheese and cream cheese and a few other goodies into a creamy, dreamy dip.  And you know what’s even better?  Serving it up not with the usual chips and crackers and celery sticks, but with juicy slices of apple and pear.

Banana Cake with Pecan Cream Cheese Frosting

February 27, 2014 by 7 Comments

Oh, this cake.  I love it for so many reasons.  I love it because of its delectable banana goodness.  I love it because I make it in my blender.  I like it because it comes out perfectly every single time.  I love it because it is one of those cakes where you only have to frost the top and not the sides (I am never good at frosting the sides.  It’s a thing.  I don’t know why.)  I love it because it it gets made in a springform pan so there is no will-the-cake-come-out-of-the-pan-without-falling-apart anxiety.  I  LOVE THIS CAKE!
