Crumb Cake 101

You’ll have to hide this crumb cake.  Even from yourself… I promise it won’t last very long if left out (I’ve been known to double-up on the crumb topping… shhhh!)

Cheese Strata

There’s something about eggs and cheese on a weekend morning. It seems to cure many woes as well as… well? They just taste so darn good together. Bacon, ham, pork roll, steak… they all go perfectly along with cheese strata. Thanks...
