Planning Lunch

If lunches have you feeling bored, skip the leftovers and opt for planned-overs. The difference? Leftovers means having the same thing you had the other day. Planned-overs means making sure you have the right combination of items on hand to make something new.

Scruffy Hospitality

It's the 4th of July and if you're in the US, it means Independence Day. Enjoy the potluck picnics and backyard barbecues. No? The house is too (dirty, small, unfinished, etc.)?

What's the difference between coffee cake and a snack cake … or is there one? You'll find yourself not really caring once you have a slice of this decadent, crumb-topped cake featuring tangy rhubarb over a rich cake crust.
