So many apples and what to do….. .? Bake…bake...bake. This is a simple yet satisfying breakfast cake that goes perfectly with coffee or tea to start your day. It really is not too sweet and gets you started without fuss or muss at this busy time of year.

Living the Gourmet: Apple Chunck Breakfast Cake

It has been a long night. Hours of research, re-design and still so much left to do.

There has been a mysterious, unauthorized pop-up ad that suddenly appeared two nights ago. We have done everything we could possibly think of to try and locate it's source.

Has anyone been experiencing this lately? They are not small ads either. These ads take up both sides of the site, or just the right, covering our subscription bar at the bottom of the screen. It is frustrating and daunting.

Good thing for this cake. After a night like we had, it is nice to wake up to a slice of this with coffee. We are all set and ready to tackle the new day!

You may have also noticed our new look. Welcome to Foodie Pro. It is just fantastic! You will notice some new features and aspects added to the theme this week.

Not to worry though, this is just to make your viewability easier and more enjoyable.
