To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace.
A place to share ideas on making a comfortable home. I do it through quilting, being faithful to my Faith, and caring for my family. Being a Catholic, sewing, and baking cookies are a few of my favorite things. I'm open to discussion!

Pop Tarts - made at home!
Alton Brown is one of my favorite chefs on the Food Network channel. He always comes up with unique or improved ideas on old favorites. He works on everyone's level without looking down on anyone for lack of expertise. He makes the idea of cooking fun and productive. I don't always try all his recipes but he is a go-to person when I'm looking for something special. My daughter just sent me this link for a recipe by Alton Brown. It is his homemade take on toaster pastries or, as we all know them, pop tarts. Reading this recipe, I realized that this not-so-great packaged 'treat' can be much improved upon. Thought I'd share this find with you. Imagine all the creative ways one can go with the filling!
