I’m taking part in #BreakingBread with this month’s bread, focaccia (thus the slightly earlier post)! Take a gander over at Cake Duchess’s blog for all the yummy focaccias baked this month, and to learn more about the Breaking Bread Society. It’s a pretty neat idea. Today is my very first day of self-employment. As in, [...]

In case you haven’t had enough pancakes in your life lately, I’m here with another yummy recipe for ‘em. When the husband and I have no plans for dinner, or we’re just plain lazy, or we need to clean out the fridge, or just because we feel like it — we have brinner. Sometimes we [...]

Time for another tale of “How Things Didn’t Go As Planned.” Gather ’round! Truth: This toasted coconut monkey bread totally didn’t turn out how I intended.

It’s two days until Friday, spring has sprung, times are a-changin’ up in here and Mother’s Day is just around the corner. Wait, what? You don’t know what you’re going to do for the day of [...]

Hello, my fellow Meatless Monday-ers! Sorry for the belated post (last week got a little ca-razy), but I’m back again with another post for you! Actually, I lied. I’m not back here with a post, but my wonderful, smart, hilarious (and like-minded when it comes to food) husband, Elliott, is here with a guest post [...]

I’ve been feeling a little… uninspired lately. I hate to admit this because I’ve always been one who wants to put forth her very best, in all circumstances — whether at my job, in my relationships or in the kitchen. If I’m not feeling that natural sense of ambition or creativity, I chalk it up [...]
