What better way to enjoy a cool autumn day than with a warm, spicy apple crisp? I’ve had this recipe on hand for many years. It was given to me by a wonderful woman I worked with long ago. I love [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/apple-crisp-2-801.htm/feed 6 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/raspberry-lemonade-772.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/raspberry-lemonade-772.htm#comments Sun, 12 Jul 2009 02:15:52 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/?p=772       The sun finally made an appearance in our little part of the world this weekend.  We celebrated the return of that big, yellow orb with an outdoor turkey fry (more on that in a later post!) and some homemade raspberry lemonade! Real lemonade is so easy to make, and lemons are pretty inexpensive, so [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/raspberry-lemonade-772.htm/feed 2 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/an-american-place-strawberry-shortcake-96.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/an-american-place-strawberry-shortcake-96.htm#comments Sun, 19 Apr 2009 00:07:44 +0000 Dawn http://www.demeo-web.com/wordpress/?p=96       I’ve had a version of this recipe in my archives for some time, so I don’t remember where I first saw it.  Supposedly it comes from the June 2000 issue of Parade magazine.  I’ve made a few changes to it over the years, and I always get tons of compliments when I serve it.

We were told that Julia’s was “the world’s best” banana bread. I always thought of banana bread as something you make to save extra bananas from going in the trash. That was [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/banana-bread-with-macadamia-nuts-438.htm/feed 3 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/perfect-apple-pie-60.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/perfect-apple-pie-60.htm#comments Fri, 17 Oct 2008 11:58:00 +0000 Dawn http://www.demeo-web.com/wordpress/?p=60       Sorry I’m still not posting regularly.  I’ve been preoccupied with an in-vitro cycle that did not end well.  You can read more about it on my other blog if you’re interested. Fall is my favorite season.  I love the crisp, cool mornings, the bright colors on the trees and, of course, going apple picking!  [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/perfect-apple-pie-60.htm/feed 1 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/mango-smoothie-307.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/mango-smoothie-307.htm#comments Sat, 17 May 2008 23:25:12 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/?p=307       When I was in Hawaii last September, one hotel we stayed at served tiny mango smoothies with breakfast every morning. They were delicious; I wished they hadn’t been so small. I found some beautiful mangoes while shopping at a farmers market last week and decided to try making my own. Ingredients: 1 small mango, [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/mango-smoothie-307.htm/feed 0 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/lemon-coconut-cream-pie-70.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/lemon-coconut-cream-pie-70.htm#comments Sun, 11 May 2008 22:59:14 +0000 Dawn http://www.demeo-web.com/wordpress/?p=70             I got this recipe from a co-worker years ago. I think his roommate’s girlfriend – or something like that -was a chef…or maybe just studying to be one. It’s been so long I really don’t remember. (He he!) At any rate, she came up with this fabulous recipe. It has a wonderfully [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/lemon-coconut-cream-pie-70.htm/feed 0 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/blueberry-pie-89.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/blueberry-pie-89.htm#comments Sat, 05 Apr 2008 14:13:22 +0000 Dawn http://www.demeo-web.com/wordpress/?p=89       Updated Sorry for the lack of posts lately.  I’ve had the flu and haven’t felt much like cooking or writing.  I’ve taken the time to make a few changes to the site, though.  Some are updates on the back end, so you probably won’t notice those.  There is also an alphabetical recipe index to make [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/blueberry-pie-89.htm/feed 3 http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm#comments Mon, 28 Jan 2008 16:15:28 +0000 Dawn http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm This is my second Daring Bakers challenge recipe, and I’m happy to say it was another success! I’ve never tasted meringue before, much less tried my hand at making it. It smells like angel cake when it’s baking and has a very similar flavor. The lemon curd was perfect – not too tart, not to [...]]]> http://www.dawnsrecipes.com/individual-lemon-meringue-tarts-249.htm/feed 38
