Crunchy Cabbage, Kale, and Radicchio Salad

July 16, 2025 / Jenny / 0 Comments

Crispy, crunchy, and oh so simple to make, this cabbage, kale, and radicchio salad is the perfect side dish to take on a picnic, to the beach, or to your own dining table.

A homemade dressing lends plenty of zing to a refreshing combination of robust leafy vegetables. The vibrant radicchio adds a beautiful magenta color, along with a slight bitterness that cleanses the palate. Not only is this a pretty salad, but it is full of nutrition and it holds up well if you need to pack it in a cooler for a picnic lunch.

Rhubarb Bundt Cake

June 27, 2025 / Jenny / 6 Comments

This rich, moist cake is accented with bursts of fruity flavor from the rhubarb. Though my family and I love a tart rhubarb pie, the rhubarb aspect of this cake is much more subtle and sweet. So subtle that even those who claim to not like rhubarb will probably love this cake. The Bundt pan creates a festive style with its fancy shape, and the delicious flavor goes beautifully with coffee, tea, or on a hot day, iced tea.

The recipe for Rhubarb Bundt Cake is based on one I found in the cookbook Hollyhocks & Radishes by Bonnie Stewart Mickelson. I love this cookbook for its seasonal recipes that celebrate locally grown produce from Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. Rhubarb Bundt Cake is quite easy to put together and while it bakes, you can do all the other things you need to do. Because I know you have a lot of things to do, as I certainly do!
