    Dusty Miller Sundae

    May 26, 2014 / 4 Comments

    It all boils down to this.  When I was 11 I would collect change until I saved up $1.25.  Then it was out the back door, over the stone wall, past the corn fields to Silver Ranch.  I would step up to the window and order a Dusty Miller Sundae.

    Oh boy.  I did it this time.  I took three ingredients, conveniently on hand and 10-minutes later I was licking the spoon.  This spoon.  The one dripping with Homemade Hot Fudge Sauce.

    Homemade Whipped Cream

    May 25, 2014 / No Comments

    There are some things I routinely make from scratch that I take for granted.  Homemade Whipped Cream is one of them.  Consider this post being less about a recipe and more about encouragement to make from scratch whenever possible.  It’s really nice to know the ingredients in your dishes.  In this case…just two.

    Deviled Crab Dip

    May 23, 2014 / 2 Comments

    I’ve been on a sentimental journey lately exploring old family recipes.  I could hardly wait to recreate Mom’s Deviled Crab Dip.  I actually didn’t remember it all that well, but the ingredients were so yummy and intriguing that I knew we’d love it.

    Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing

    May 22, 2014 / 6 Comments

    When I first began the Lemony Thyme blog it was our fresh herb porch pots that I recognized/acknowledged/gave credit to/sited/attributed for my cooking inspiration.  Fresh Herbs still continue to amaze and inspire me daily.  However, I have found an equally intriguing element to cooking.  Recreating fridge/pantry staples from scratch (or mostly from scratch).  Homemade Buttermilk Ranch Dressing is super easy to make at home and just as good if not better than the bottled variety.

    Inside Out Fresh Herb Omelet

    May 19, 2014 / 1 Comment

    This Inside Out Fresh Herb Omelet was my Healthy Choice post-workout meal. Four weeks ago today I arrived at the office with workout clothes in hand (after taking 4 months off).  I was committed to getting back into an exercise routine and knew I would need the encouragement of teammates to keep me on track.  So when the lunchtime walking crew lined up to head out, I followed right along.  Well actually I lagged behind a good bit, but I did it.  A 2.61 mile power walk in 40 minutes.

    Blueberry Coffee Cake

    May 18, 2014 / 16 Comments

    Growing up, this Blueberry Coffee Cake was the quintessential coffee cake in our home.  We lived in blueberry country.  Early on my grandfather Boppy grew the most gorgeous cultured blueberries.  They were so sweet and big and juicy.  Later we relied on wild blueberries which bordered tree lines and paths throughout our property.  While it took a bit longer to fill our baskets, the reward was well worth it.  The reward…was my sister Sarah making this heavenly Blueberry Coffee Cake.

About Libby

Hi, I'm Libby and welcome to Lemony Thyme. I hope you'll enjoy this collection of recipes, eating experiences, and food photography. My cooking abilities rose to a new level when I started incorporating fresh herbs. I began to understand the term ‘layers of flavor’ and found myself deconstructing dishes with my tongue to identify each ingredient.
