Food, Family & Finds from A Cowboy's Wife
Some people just don’t know how to make holiday desserts and need a little help, myself included. Sometimes you can take things and turn them into something special with very little effort and create something that is tasty and visual appealing. Blue Bunny has some very tasty and fun holiday ice cream out right now. … [Continue Reading]
I don’t normally like Pecan Pies because they are too sweet but I find that ones not made with additional sugar, are easier for me to eat. My Grandma made fantastic pecan pies. She never burned the edges and the insides were always settled well. This pecan pie recipe makes 3 pecan pies. I don’t… [Continue Reading]
In my previous video, I made you Healthy Pumpkin Bread. Today, I bring you quite the opposite with Rocky Road Brownies. When it comes to food gift giving during the holidays, so many people give breads and cookies but something we like to give, are brownies served in a dish. I like to find pretty… [Continue Reading]
These don’t have to be only Halloween treats but they does make for a fun one and as you can see, we used Halloween colors and decorations to celebrate the holiday. They are very fun and vibrant. Halloween always seems to be about sweets (and no exceptions here) but at least there are fresh apple… [Continue Reading]
You should know that just because I am taking Wilton Decorating classes, that it doesn’t mean I’m any good at it still. I’m definitely learning much more but I still have such a long ways to go. With this Hair Raising Cake, I wanted to do three things; incorporate Halloween of course, try not to… [Continue Reading]
So my brother-in-law is always talking about this blueberry peach cobbler he ate out on the wagon one time and told us that if we ever make it, we had to call HIS blueberry peach cobbler. Since it’s not technically Andy Falcon’s Blueberry Peach Cobbler recipe, I’ll just call it the lazy man’s version. It’s… [Continue Reading]
Pies happen to be one of my most favorite desserts but so many pies call for long cooking times in the oven. With the Summer heat upon us, I try to find recipes with little oven cooking time and that often need refrigeration to keep everyone cool. I have a few favorites and this is… [Continue Reading]
I LOVE pumpkin anything but particularly love it in a cake/brownie like version. I make a mean Pumpkin Pie Cake with Cream Cheese Frosting but this recipe is even easier and faster which is great for when unexpected company arrives and you need something quick! This also makes a big ol’ pan worth so I… [Continue Reading]
Everyone I know drinks coffee. Sometimes I feel like the odd man out because it’s not my cup of tea (get it? HA!) but because I was hosting a Spring brunch for a few people, serving coffee and a light lunch, I needed a tasty dessert too. I remember seeing this little ol’ lady and… [Continue Reading]

While I prefer apple butter with homemade tortillas, eating apple butter bread is the next best thing. This is a pretty simple recipe and would be great with some morning coffee or milk don’t you think? This bread is MUCH better the next day, after it’s had time to settle and completely cool off. If… [Continue Reading]
