Banana Coconut Oat Muffins
Banana's going brown? There's an app for that! Just kidding.
I'm not a picky eater at all but as a kid I never liked bananas. I hated the smell, the taste, the texture, everything about them. Even as an adult, I can really only eat them if they're just barely yellow. Any banana smell or brown mark and they're dead to me so into the baking they go. If I don't plan on baking anything immediately, I throw them in the freezer and thaw them when I do have some time to bake something.
I really like this recipe because it has a lot of great adds: oats, coconut, vanilla, almond. It's a really nice variation.
LORRIE'S APPLE BUNDT CAKE
Today I'm going to share with you a recipe from my childhood best friend's mom. Her name was Lorrie and she is also the aunt of my sister-in-law, Jill. She was an amazing cook and ran a catering company for years. Jill makes another of her famous dishes, creamed carrots with cheese, every time we have a family dinner and they're so delicious.
KIM'S BEST EVER CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES

FARMING 101: FEED
We have three types of bales we handle for our herd: silage hay, hay and straw. The ones I have pictured here are all round bales we make with our round baler but we also have smaller squares we make up of hay and straw for hand feeding and bedding in the barn.

They're very easy to make as well so even if you're a beginner baker, you can master these tarts and everyone will be raving about them after Christmas dinner.
HOMEMADE MINCEMEAT TARTS
This is one of those recipes you either really love or really hate. As a kid, I didn't like it but I wasn't a big raisin fan so that's why but now I love it! It's so spicy and festive!
GRANDMA'S CINNAMON BUNS
The Athena Collection was inspired by my Grandma Verna Athena who also came up with this bread and cinnamon bun recipe when I was a little girl. It's one of the best you'll ever have!
AUNTY CATHY'S DILL PICKLES
For some reason canning, pickling and making jam or pie filling seem to be really intimidating to a lot of people but if you have the right tools it's really not that difficult to do. And who doesn't love dill pickles? Just like cookies, I find that homemade are never the same as store-bought either - they're always better.
GRANDMA EVELYN'S GINGER SNAPS
This is a great recipe for ginger snap cookies, our whole family loves them! It's another one from Grandma Evelyn, she always said the way to someone's heart is through their stomach!
