Recipe: Strawberry Rhubarb Butter
It’s the end of summer so I wanted to get in one last summer recipe – strawberry rhubarb butter (no…no butter in it, it’s just thicker than jam, more like butter).

Recipe: Banana Chocolate Chip Nut Muffins
Banana nut muffins are delicious – this time, I added in some chocolate chips. These banana chocolate chip nut muffins are so yummy. I started with my mom’s banana nut muffin recipe – it’s delicious all on it’s own. Oddly, though, here in Alberta I can’t get the tops as dark as she did in Ontario. Different oven, maybe. Different altitude or climate. Who knows. Either way, they taste just as good. Ingredients 1 cup of sugar stick of butter 2 large eggs 3 large…
