(This giveaway is closed.) Ladies and gentlefolk, let’s talk skin care, shall we? I know we usually talk about yummy breads and baked goods around these parts, but for today, I’d like to talk about my face. Bear with me. You see, my skin is not the best skin in all the land. It has [...]

This Easter egg-dyeing situation happened out of a moment of sheer “OhmygoshI’malmosttwentysixyearsold” panic (which is still a good month and a half away, by the way, but I like to panic early). It’s why I rolled some eggs in glitter — for my inner preteen. It’s why I wrapped parsley leaves around eggs and stained [...]

I’m part of this amazing community known as The Influence Network (started by the same gals who created the She Reads Truth community, which is equally awesome and socks rocking… seriously, if you need something to stir you daily, THIS is it). Anyschways, I’m participating in a little linkup as a way to get to [...]

Sheesh, it’s been a while since I last kept you abreast of what I’ve been conjuring up for the interwebs. There’s some serious yumminess going on, so I thought I’d share it with all y’all. You know, because I think you’re great and stuff. And you deserve to treat yo’ self. First up! Jelly doughnuts. [...]

(This giveaway is closed.) Oh hey. It’s me! This photo is evidence as to why I am a food, not fashion, blogger as I get all awkward and stuff when I have my picture taken. For example, what am I doing with my hands? I feel a lot like this guy. Also I have a [...]

(This giveaway is closed.) Sometimes I feel like I’m not completely honest with you. Sure, I blather on a good deal about tartlets, quick breads and epic baking fails. I even post a few pictures of my travels from time to time or tell you when I haven’t shaved my legs. But I don’t always [...]

I don’t mean late as in, belated. I mean late as in, good-grief-it’s-already-August-and-therefore-late-summer-and-kids-are-going-back-to-school-and-there’s-a-chill-in-the-air-and-I-still-want-my-sunny-afternoons-lounging-by-a-pool. That kind of late. And it’s that kind of late that I hate (hey, that rhymes! I’m a poet and I didn’t even know it). But instead of moping around, staring out the window as one, then two, then three leaves fall [...]

Hello, friends! I’m back home from a ridiculously lovely vacation week in Hawaii with the fam (photos hopefully to come soon!). I have tons of unpacking/laundry to do, my cat has been talking incessantly since we got home (apparently we have a lot to catch up on) and this thing they call jet lag is [...]

Greetings, ladies and gentlefolk, and a very happy midweek to you all! There’s so much to be excited about! 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 [...]

I’ve been doing a lotta lookin’ lately. Looking outward at the beautiful things around me and not taking for granted this blessed life I lead, even when I can’t do math or things don’t go as planned and all I want to do is eat brownies. Looking inward at the joy and blues together, trying [...]

Were I a professional baker, I probably wouldn’t end up with flat, under-risen loaves of bread on a near-regular basis. I probably wouldn’t have nightmares in my sleep of covering my entire kitchen in flour or burning forgotten breads to a crisp in the oven. I probably wouldn’t have daily ruminations like, “Did I OVERknead [...]
