Guinness and Jameson Cinnamon Rolls
Yesterday I was issued a challenge. My friend Mike sent me a link to this recipe saying nothing but, “Thanks in advance.” Now, I’m not one to back down from a challenge, but as soon as I looked at the recipe I dropped everything and started baking. And that’s what you need to do right...

Garlic Bread to die for!
I admit it. Sometimes I judge the quality of my recipes by how quickly and ravenously they are eaten. If I’m using that criteria, this might be the best thing I have ever made. Then again, it helps when you are feeding 10 hungry boys on a Sunday afternoon…but still. It was like light lightning struck: and...
