As the “Hannah Swenen Mysteries” continue on Hallmark Mysteries, the next installment “Reality Bites” brought some new treats to the bakery! There was a heavy blueberry theme in this one. The movie opened with Hannah making a blueberry pie, we also saw a blueberry cheesecake, and then there were Hannah’s famous blueberry muffins that no…

I’m celebrating her movies, her show on Hallmark Plus “Celebrations with Lacey Chabert”, and her new line of products coming later in 2025 with Hallmark! To celebrate Lacey, I made…
“The Perfect Setting” on Hallmark Channel took place in beautiful Belgium. While main character Abby (played by Laci J. Bailey) was busy creating gorgeous jewelry, she also found the time to attempt making her grandmother’s famous stroopwafle recipe. This Dutch delight is not your typical breakfast waffle you cover in syrup. It is more of…
“My Argentine Heart” on Hallmark Channel took place in beautiful Argentina, with plenty of glorious scenery, wine and delicious food. With part of the storyline surrounding the idea of opening a restaurant, you can bet there was plenty of Argentinian cuisine to go around!

It’s a Christmas fountain drink like no other! “Reason for the Season” on Hallmark Mysteries inspired this tasty burst of Christmas in a glass! Main character, Evie (played by Taylor Cole), was born in a diner on Christmas Eve. This diner is known for their “cup of cheer” that they serve during the holidays. It…
“Five Gold Rings” on Hallmark Channel was all about a quest to track down the owners of five gold rings that were once found lost on the beach.

When the train had to stop unexpectedly for a while, Dave’s romantic gesture to get off the train, and get Nell her favorite fruitcake, was the beginning of their love story! Traditional fruitcake includes being soaked…
Merinac is the quaint little town all the lovely folks live in on “The Chicken Sisters” on Hallmark Plus! I just finished up watching season one, and it was a great one!
