I have come a very long way from when I started blogging and my intentions have changed some too.  When I first started this blog it was a way to catalog the different meals I made that we enjoyed.  And I’ll be honest, it has come in pretty handy having all these recipes stored here!  But now there are so many of you coming here I would like your input as well.  I would like to make this a place you can easily find family friendly recipes.  So give me all your constructive criticism!

 About these Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon Glaze:

  • Yes, these potatoes use butter.  Please don’t be afraid of the butter, they seriously don’t taste as good when roasted with oil.  Trust me I’ve tried.
  • The cinnamon glaze is purely optional.  They are very good without it but the glaze adds an extra special touch.
  • This recipe is adapted from Dessert For Two.

These Roasted Sweet Potatoes with Cinnamon Glaze are the perfect side dish for those that want something a little special!. They are tender, healthy, and lightly sweet with a touch of honey. In other news, we have been crazy busy working on all of our projects going on around the house (I know that’s what I always say, but it’s true!)  Do you guys feel like you are so busy you don’t know if you’ll ever catch up??  We are so there and I keep hoping for the day we will be able to just sit and relax, but then I’m sure we would complain about being bored, lol!

Right now we have our water lines dug up trying to fix and replace the problems we have been having.  And usually I complain about the crazy weather but I am going to hold my tongue because we need to keep this nice weather we’ve been having.  Yesterday it was 80 degrees here!  I’m hoping it can stay with us long enough so we can get this project wrapped up.

    I get frustrated when people comment/review that a recipe “looks” or “sounds” good!! Try it and then tell others your thoughts!
