love the new look!
the upside down blueberry pancake looks quite tasty... we love blueberries, so we'll have to give that one a try.
the cranberry muffins sound delicious too -- do you use dried cranberries in them, or fresh?
You likee the new look? I can't tell you how much stress-chocolate was involved in it. Yikes! And I'm not done yet. HTML is migraine inducing.
We found fresh cranberries for a steal a few months ago and I stuck them in my freezer. I'm down to my last bag this week. SO sad.
Wow! HOmemade peanutbutter? Looks interesting. I would like to know how it turns out. Nice menu.
Is making your own peanut butter more cost effective than buying it? May we have a price comparison, please?

Great idea anonymous. And I really enjoyed that article. I'll do a little comparing and let you know the results of my peanut butter experiment.
I am interested in the experiment, too. I just started eating almond butter which I bought at whole foods. It is very good but it was expensive.
Yum! those scalloped potatoes sound GOOD.
Gayle,
I'm a frequent reader but don't usually comment. Just wanted to say thanks for this blog (and your other one-which always has me giggling!). I enjoy the recipe links and your frugal tips. Thanks!!!!
You will have to tell us how your peanut butter turns out! I am so curious. We eat lots of peanut butter at our house!
The new blog format is nice, but I miss seeing your smile! I too would be interested in cost-comparisons for peanut butter and other homemades. Can you make both chunky and creamy?
