Everything spice, also called everything bagel seasoning or everything bagel blend, has become a trendy ingredient over the last few years. "Everything" is everywhere: in dressings and sauces, in chips and crackers, as a topping for and stirred into just about anything.

I don't know why it collectively took us so long to realize that this spice blend is good, well, on everything, not only as a bagel topping, but I'm glad we did. You can also purchase everything bagel seasoning from your local grocery store or from a specialty spice shop, such as Savory Spice, which has a website as well as stores across the U.S, but it is very easy to make.

No judgment here if you want to have your dessert for breakfast or brunch, or your breakfast or brunch for dessert. This is a fast, homemade, sweet dish for your Valentine to make tomorrow or this week. Serve this classic sauce (or is it a topping? or maybe it's a saucy topping...?) warm over waffles, crêpes, or ice cream.

Jump ahead to the recipe at the end if you wish, but first, I have to talk about crêpes. This was how we made and served bananas foster recently and I highly suggest trying it.

This past week, we've seen some ridiculously cold temperatures, into the negative teens after factoring in wind chill. Brr... But, hey, it is January, after all.

One of my favorite things to make is soup. It's always a great way to use up vegetables that I have leftover and expedite the dinner-making process. The past couple of weekends, I have made soup on Sunday in our Crock-Pot for Dave and I to have as lunch and dinner during the week.

Here is a quick round-up of seven great recipes to try if you need inspiration for what to make this week. I've included a few of my own and a few that just sounded delicious from others. Let me know in a comment what you think and if you have tried any of them!
