biscuit love

On December 9, 2011 By

I love mak­ing muffins and cook­ies and cakes. And brown­ies. And bread. Who am I kid­ding, if it goes in the oven, I’m in love!

But every once in awhile, an odd sort of inspi­ra­tion strikes. This week was an exam­ple of it and I think I’ve invented my new favorite breakfast treat.

Typ­i­cally, I’m much more […]

fall baking fun

On October 1, 2010 By

*Kelly! You won the marsh­mal­lows! Send me an email with your address and I’ll pop them in the mail!*

While I love the lin­ger­ing days of sum­mer, as soon as the leaves begin to change my mind turns towards fall (my favorite sea­son) and then it turns to bak­ing, which is always enhanced by those […]

holiday wrap up

On December 28, 2009 By

Oy.

I’m feel­ing the post-holiday impact. True, we still have New Year’s to ring in, but the giant feasts, present wrap­ping and fam­ily wran­gling are behind us. It always leaves me feel­ing simul­ta­ne­ously wist­ful and grateful.

I hope you had a won­der­ful hol­i­day sea­son. I got com­pletely spoiled in the kitchen by the wonderful […]

by popular vote…

You asked and so you shall receive.

Here is the rough recipe for the chick­pea tart that I made for Thanks­giv­ing. This was lit­er­ally “a lit­tle of this, a lit­tle of that”, so please know there is tons of room for interpretation.

Savory Hol­i­day Tart

1 recipe pie crust, minus sugar (I […]

thanksgiving wrap-up

On November 29, 2009 By

There are plenty of good things to be thank­ful for this time of year– an awe­some hus­band, good fur kids (even if we do mostly refer to them as “the jerks), a great new job, my health– but what I truly appre­ci­ate and am hum­bled by my husband’s family.

I know that the holidays […]

gobble, gobble

On November 18, 2009 By

I love Thanks­giv­ing food. Cran­ber­ries and stuff­ing? Yes, please. Some more sweet pota­toes? Pile on some bread sticks or bis­cuits and gravy and call it a day. Who could miss turkey? Thanks­giv­ing is all about the side dishes anyway.

Except for dessert. Dessert is an equally impor­tant part of Thanks­giv­ing. Nat­u­rally, one’s mind wanders […]

best. pancakes. ever!

On May 25, 2009 By

That’s quite the claim, I know. But I swear I can back it up.

We are putting the fin­ish­ing touches on episode 2. I hope to have it up by tomor­row night, so stay tuned for that. It will be actual doc­u­men­ta­tion that I do cre­ate food that is not baked. No body dou­bles, I swear. […]

ham tube is dead to me

On April 12, 2009 By

So, a cou­ple of East­ers ago, I glazed a ham tube from Food Fight. The com­pany that made said ham tube went out of busi­ness and there is a new tube in town. I was so excited to glaze it up for Easter… and it was just sad, really.

First off, I […]
