Greetings all and welcome to a special Halloween edition of leggy cooks. As I’m sure you can see from the photo, my kitchen was infiltrated by the long claws of scary bear this morning. He was climbing into the cupboards pulling out all kinds of ingredients and he would not leave until I baked his […]

Bacon and Date Scones to Die for!
WOW! I said this about 76 times after consuming the first of these unbelievable scones, and trust me so will you. The thought of combining bacon and dates never crossed my mind before I made these, but now I’m as hooked on the combo as peanut butter and jelly. My foray into this new flavor […]

Strawberry Muffins!
As promised here is a muffin recipe. It took much longer to post than initially anticipated because my computer is on its last legs and occasionally decides to say no to word processing. Happily however, this gave me ample time to tweak the recipe three times before deeming it blog worthy. I decided to do a […]
