This is a list of recipes that we like, may like, or simply make. The title comes from one of our sons' favorite books, Bear Snores On. As the title character is napping his friend Badger scuttles by the lair where two other friends, Mouse and Hare, are having tea and popcorn. Badger says "I smell yummy yums, perhaps we can share." Thus, the name of the blog was born.
