Yes, that is a cheesy title. No, this post is not about Cheetos (too bad, I know; they’re totally my secret guilty pleasure love o’ life). This happy Friday post is, however, about an equally cheese-infused bite that I never in my wildest dreams thought I’d bake and then so joyfully nosh. Today is all…
Pasta + cheese = comfort
Cooking can be a pretty mathematical process sometimes. For the mathletes among us, that’s probably reassuring. Knowing that spaghetti + sauce = dinner is likely just as comforting as knowing that 2 + 2 = 4. Simple cooking truths, just like simple math, are the building blocks of kitchen know-how, and though the real fun…
Challah, you’re the flavor I was missing
From the time I was in first grade through third grade, my family lived in Germany, and during that first year overseas, we lived in Egelsbach, a little German town near the Air Force base where my dad was stationed. I have a lot of great memories from our time there — spaghetti ice from…
Dear Ms. Witch. Your house smells good: Gingerbread cake
Remember the story of Hansel and Gretel? The little kids who stumbled upon a witch’s gingerbread house while walking through the woods, only to be wooed inside by the promise of sweets and fattened up so the mean old witch could enjoy some tasty kid stew? No matter what version of the story you heard…
The Breakfast Club: Pumpkin waffles
It seems I can’t say enough about the merits of an A+ kind of breakfast (OK, I probably can — and have — said enough about my love of breakfast foods, but surely someone else out there shares my love of starchy AM goodness). I think I could eat breakfast for every meal of the…
I’ll take the whole enchilada
Lots of the meals Jared and I have come to know and love (and cook with the utmost frequency) are recipes we’ve discovered during the past few years of marriage. Some are from magazines, some are from blogs, some are makeshift creations we’ve tweaked and refined with time. No matter their origins, however, they’ve become…
The happiest cookies you’ll ever make
The older I get (it’s all relative, I know), the more I realize how much some of the best things in life are also the simplest. Life gets crazy, plans have to change, but I think there’s comfort in knowing that lifting your spirits or finding your happy place isn’t nearly as overwhelming or unattainable…
End-of-summer pizza
It’s officially September, officially post-Labor Day, and I’m so so ready for fall. I’m ready for the changing colors, the chilly air, the crunchy leaves on the ground outside. And the holidays. I’m always ready for the holidays. But amidst all my fall anticipation through the years, I’ve realized that I never give summertime the…
We’re Southern now, y’all. And we’re cooking up cornbread.
Weekends are funny things. We spend all week looking forward to having a few days off, only to find that those few days fly by so fast, we’re left wondering what in the world we did with all the extra time. Saturdays are especially rascally that way. It’s typically the one day a week that…
Once upon a time, three apples found their destiny
Earlier this week, three forgotten apples sat quietly at the bottom of our refrigerator. The produce drawer is a lonely place to be, I suspect, especially when you’re the last guys left until the next trip to the grocery store. Actually, I’ve always been rather hesitant about using the refrigerator drawers just because of the…
