Watermelon Cupcakes

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog4 Comments

I made these for the Chili Dog Dangle Dance that we had on June 9th for the Silver Fox Squares. They were so good and fairly easy to make. Not too mention that they are pretty cute if you don’t tip them over on the way.

For future reference, I will try to frost the cupcakes when they arrive at the location instead of frosting them and transporting them. I did find this idea on Pinterest and you can click here for the original recipe.

The kids can help with this one and make it a bit more fun. Continue reading “Watermelon Cupcakes” →

Zucchini Carrot Bread

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog1 Comment

This is one of those recipes that I’ve had since high school. I make this at least once a year, usually around the time that the squash is overflowing from the gardens. When I freeze the zucchini I will shred it and add a couple of shredded carrots to it as well to make this recipe a little easier to prepare.

I normally double the recipe and make 2 loaves at a time because it is so good! I love it right out of the oven with a little bit of butter on it. Continue reading “Zucchini Carrot Bread” →

Slow Cooker Kraut & Sausage

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog4 Comments

My mom-mom always made the best homemade kraut. I can remember helping her and tasting it straight out of the crock. These are fond memories for me. I’d love to learn to make it the way she did one day.

I love kraut and sausage but my kids haven’t developed the taste for it yet, I have faith that they will though, eventually. We eat this only once or twice a year for now but if they do decide that they like it we will probably have it more often. Continue reading “Slow Cooker Kraut & Sausage” →
