One of my favorite things in summer is a cup of iced coffee in the afternoon. I recently learned the art of making ice cream at home too. So it wasn’t long until I figured out that the two can be combined into one delicious treat. I’m pretty particular about my coffee and was […]
There are few things more tasty than melted cheese and crispy potatoes. Conebella Farm’s Sharp Cheddar won first prize and best in show at the Pennsylvania Farm Show earlier this year, and there’s no debate that this cheddar is truly delicious in any form, but melted on potatoes is an absolutely delicious way to enjoy […]
I used to always have a batch of freshly baked Maple Pecan Granola on hand. Always. I ate it every morning for breakfast with milk or yogurt, and often as snacks with yogurt and fresh fruit. Then life got in the way and I stopped baking granola as often. I resorted to buying granola, which […]
Until recently, I was convinced that the dish “Welsh Rarebit” was actually called “Welsh Rabbit.” My mom used to make this as the ultimate comfort food on nights my dad had to travel or work late. I did some research, and discovered that the true recipe calls for beer such as a porter or stout […]
Whether you’re planning for a busy morning or a lazy weekend, a breakfast casserole is an excellent way to take some of the stress out of your morning routine. Any time I can make things ahead of time to ease some of the morning rush is a win in my book! They also make a […]
A cheese plate is just about the simplest yet most elegant appetizer you can bring to a gathering this holiday season.

I recently made a cheese plate for my sister-in-law’s baby shower using Conebella Farm’s […]
There’s something so refreshing about cold, sweet treats in summertime. I remember eating many popsicles, freeze pops, Italian ice and my favorite, homemade popsicles, as a child. I’m not sure if it was the satisfaction of having helped out that made it taste so much better, but getting kids involved in food preparation definitely piques […]
The snow is falling today, and while farmers don’t get snow days off by any stretch, it’s always nice to warm up with a hot drink. At Conebella Farm, Don and Pam will be working hard today to make sure the cows are happy, hydrated and well-fed to make that delicious farm fresh milk you […]
Making a recipe that appeals to all generations is often a challenge. I think I might have the only two-year-old who doesn’t love pizza, but I may have found a compromise! This recipe for roasted red pepper & herb pinwheels was a hit with him, and he affectionately called them “pizza cookies.” Last year, a […]
Ready or not, fall schedules are here with all of the busyness this brings to our weeknight meal planing. At this time of year I find that even my well-intentioned meal plans fall by the wayside if I can get away with serving leftovers for dinner a night or two in a row. And then […]
