๐ Very Cherry Recipes + Reader Reviews
|
Hi, Reader, Okay, so I'm a little bit of a nosey person. I LOVE reading comments on blogs and just seeing what other people say or think. (This can be entertaining sometimes when people substitute 5 things and don't understand why the recipe failed...) But, I especially love seeing comments on my blog and these reviews all made my day. Want to see what they said? Fresh Milled Flour Pancakes "These tasted delicious! The buttermilk was the star of the show. I wasnโt paying attention to the note, and missed where it said to use 1/2 tsp if using fine salt. Definitely think 1/2 tsp is best as they turned out a tad salty." - Maddy Lemon Balm Syrup "This syrup is tasty even just taking a spoonful by itself! So far Iโve tried the Lemon Balm Soda (with a lemon spindrift) and my husband said it tastes like a healthy sprite! ๐ Hoping to try the lemon balm lemonade next. I ended up using 1 cup of fresh leaves to 1.5 cups of both the water and sugar and then let it cool and steep for a few hours before straining. Delicious!" - Mrs. E Garlic Scape Biscuits "Followed the recipe exactly. DELICIOUS! So easy, I cut them in circles with a cookie cutter. Loved them so much! Iโll make these every time I get scapes! The whole fam loved! Thank you ๐ ๐ฅฐ" - Kelly Apple Crumble Scones "These are the best scones I ever made. Came together quickly in the food processor. Perfect ratio of butter and sugar. These are my go to scones." - Diane P.S. I'm taking new photos of this recipe to update the post! ๐ Cherry Faves Now that we're in the thick of cherry season, this is the perfect time to buy a case (or two) for all your summer preserving! I always avoid cherries for the first few weeks because the prices will inevitably come down. For example, you can currently get 20 pound cases for about $36 with Azure Standard. That price may go down even further, too. I bought two cases from them last year and froze a bunch! And anytime I share a cherry recipe, just know that it's a little love letter to my dad. He's the original cherry fiend in my family, and I know I got my taste for them from him! โBalsamic Cherry Vinaigretteโ โCherry and Apple Crumbleโ โEasy Black Cherry Syrupโ โFresh Cherry Sconesโ โHomemade Cherry Cobblerโ โSweet and Salty Pickled Cherriesโ โHow to Freeze Cherries for Pie and Jamโ โCherry-Infused Bourbonโ |

Hi, Reader! Happy 4th of July! I'm sure your weekend is packed with festivities, but I wanted to pop in to share a couple of NEW things with you. First, I have a new recipe on the blog! It's been such a hectic year that this is the first recipe I've published in like months... But, it's one I love, love, love. These raspberry crumble bars are the perfect berry-packed, not-too-sweet treat I love this time of year. We gladly eat them on their own, but they're also great with a scoop of ice...
Hi, Reader, After teaching myself to garden over 12 years ago, there is one type of plant I wish I'd planted earlier - fresh herbs. ๐ฟ I was working at a farmers market at the time, and I was way more interested in vegetables. I wanted heaps of tomatoes, zucchini, onions, and more. If I grew any herbs, it was usually basil or cilantro to use in pesto and salsa. This wasn't a bad idea in any way. I was growing what I knew I would use and enjoy! But here's the thing...herbs can shift how you use...
Hi, Reader, Happy Saturday! How has your week been? I'm exhaling a massive sigh of relief. If you've been following me for a while, you know I do vintage shows and sell antiques at two antique malls. Last week, I did my first show at The Great Junk Hunt. SO MUCH WORK. We've never refinished so much furniture and we truly pushed the limits of our abilities (maybe a little too far). The show went really well, though, and I met lots of great customers and vendors! But this week has all been...
