Friends, it is no secret that we love pound cake around here. We have celebrated National Pound Cake Day, made countless variations, and even released a wonderful compilation of all of our very best pound cake recipes in cookbook form. Pound cake is just one of those desserts that everyone gets excited about. And there are nearly no restrictions when …
I can’t help but notice how incredibly early we are starting to feel the summer heat this year. The sweltering sun wasted no time making its debut, so I’m already taking every chance I get to cool off. And one of my favorite ways to do that is a delicious no-bake dessert! Just because it’s hot doesn’t mean that summer …
Today is National Pound Cake Day! Well, at my house, it is every day! That is Neal’s absolute favorite cake—especially hot out of the oven. I had a sweet older lady make a “real pound cake” for me (as she called it), and she said her method was the only way to make a true pound cake. Trust me, it …
Valentine’s Day really does just make me smile! It’s the first bit of brightness and celebration after an often long and dreary January—what a breath of fresh air! This day is celebrated in many ways other than romance. Some families have delightful Valentine’s traditions, and now, “Galantine” celebrations seem to be the thing to do! Which honestly, makes so much …

When planning a holiday menu at my house, it is important that I have plenty of kid-friendly dishes. Especially in the dessert area. And what child doesn’t just love chocolate? Actually, what adult doesn’t love chocolate? Simply put, chocolate is a crowd-pleaser. Time and time again I’ve seen rows of nut-studded pies, spiced cakes or cookies, and cheesecakes galore. But …
Placing a freshly baked pound cake on the serving table is something I never tire of. Whether it’s a fancier caramel apple variation or the beloved classic with that delicious crumbly top, pound cakes inherently produce lots of oohs and aahs. This classic American dessert is renowned for being a simple yet elegant creation that feeds a crowd and pleases …
Well, finally September is here, and I can officially put out all my harvest and pumpkin items. The thrill of autumn never gets old. I can just look at a pumpkin and smell the cinnamon and nutmeg that permeates when I bake a pumpkin pie! The leaves are beginning to turn here in Alabama, and for that, I am grateful. …
The marvelous thing about summer is that we tend to have a bit more time on our hands to do some of the simple tasks that make life rich and beautiful. For me, some of those tasks are sewing and spending time crafting delicious recipes for my favorite people. The last few weeks have been, for the most part, exceptionally …
I hope you enjoy “Tales of Pumpkin Pie.” It reminded me of Christmas at my grandmother’s house! My cousins and I always referred to Mama Hill’s black bottom rolls as one of our favorites! You can read more of Beth Albright’s sassy southern tales in her books, her newest being A Christmas Wedding In Dixie. Tales of Pumpkin Pie By Beth …
