Breakfast is one of my family's favourite times of the day. During the weekend, we take the time to prepare breakfast. During the week, as my son has to hop on the school bus at 8:30 am to go to kindergarten, I usually choose something quick.

We had a potluck at our house a while back and one of my good friends brought a tray of delicious baked apples. Everybody loved them, so I had to get the list of ingredients. A few days later, I made my own version. My friend’s list of ingredients did not have the amounts, so I improvised. I also removed two [...]
