Dessert Fix: 20-Minute Apple Turnovers

Dessert Fix: 20-Minute Apple Turnovers

Some days are just ho hum, and you need a pick-me-up to turn things around. That, my friends, is when you must head to the kitchen. No, I’m not encouraging you to eat your feelings (though a once-in-a-while ice-cream binge never really hurt anyone, right?). But I am encouraging you to pour those feelings into…

For the Pinteresty time of year: Applesauce spice cake

For the Pinteresty time of year: Applesauce spice cake

Like any other self-respecting, seasonally driven Pinterester, I’ve spent the better part of the past month searching the interwebs for fall-filled recipes and holiday décor ideas. There were the pumpkin spice latte copycat recipes, the “12 ways to decorate with gourds” kind of posts and plenty of outfits involving riding boots and scarves. And I…

Photo 37/52: Apple picking!

It’s officially fall in New England! Actually, I guess it’s officially fall everywhere in the northern hemisphere, but I must say that of all the places I’ve lived, fall around here feels particularly amazing and autumny. The air chills a littler sooner, the leaves change a little faster and sweaters can soon be unpacked. Woo hoo! It’s the…

Fall in New England: Apples, waffles and a hooray for new seasons

Fall in New England: Apples, waffles and a hooray for new seasons

I’m sitting here at my desk with a 50-degree breeze coming through the window and feeling almost too chilly to be comfortable. It’s wonderful! It seems fall comes much earlier in New England, and I’m so, so happy for it. This transition to Boston has been tougher on me than I expected. It’s busy. It’s…

We will be morning people: Cinnamon pumpkin oatmeal

We will be morning people: Cinnamon pumpkin oatmeal

Years from now, when we’re 30-something grownups with real(er) jobs, our own house and a hopping household, I envision our mornings going something like this: 6 a.m.: The alarm clock rings. Jared and I awaken, alert and well rested after eight (yes, eight!) consecutive hours of sleep. 6-7 a.m.: I go for a run, Jared…

The Drapers could dig it: Old-fashioned apple spice cake

May 8, 2012 By Katrina

Jared and I have been on a bit of a Mad Men kick as of late (we’re still on the third season though, so no spoilers, please!), and watching an episode always makes me a bit nostalgic for the days of suits in the office, gallons of hair spray and backyard barbecues with multiple JELL-O…

Once upon a time, three apples found their destiny

August 26, 2011 By Katrina

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…

Project NYT: Apple coffee cake

Project NYT: Apple coffee cake

Typically, I’ve never been one to go for reduced-fat or sugar-free kinds of labels, but a few years ago I tried the reduced-fat cinnamon swirl coffee cake at Starbucks and found it to be a pretty delish little baked good. On further consideration, I realized that reduced-fat probably just eliminates a dot of the butter…
