Fair warning: This is not a resolution-friendly post. There are certain foods that are dangerously addicting. You know the type. It’s the food — usually snack food — that you shouldn’t even go near because once you start, you’ve unleashed that uncontrollable Pringles-type action (once you pop, the fun don’t stop, y’all). Typically, I think…
Who are you, peanut butter cookie? Who are you?
I’ve been giving this a lot of thought lately, and I’ve come to the conclusion that you can tell a lot about people by their favorite kind of cookie. There are the chocolate chip-lovers, straight-forward and classic; the snickerdoodle fans, pure and sweet; and the lemon bar enthusiasts, fresh and zingy. I actually ran through…
When you give a Santa a cookie…
With the holiday festivities in full swing, we’re up to our ears in sweets and sugarplums around here. Luckily, ’tis the season for sharing, so yesterday my sister and I spent the latter half of the day in the kitchen icing and decorating cookies for our annual rounds through the neighborhood. With no more than…
Dessert that’s fit for a king. Or queen. Or anyone who’s keen on crowns.
Christmas countdown week has arrived! Yahoo! Around our house, the week before Christmas is pretty much an ode to flour, sugar and butter galore. Hello, cookies! Yep, it’s a baking extravaganza right up until the man in red arrives. Then that baking extravaganza turns into a gifting, eating and all-around holidaying extravaganza. It really is…
And the baking returns! Cranberry orange scones
We’ve all heard the old adage: A baby changes everything. Three weeks into this parenting thing, and I can indeed confirm that our tiny bundle has made a mountain-sized impact on life as we knew it. Although the Bean’s birth hasn’t literally changed everything — there’s still work to do, school to attend, holidays to…
It’s flying from the stovetop! But it’s the prettiest of soups.
Some foods are so pretty that a single look is all it takes to fall in love. Some foods taste so amazing that one bite clears away all the stress and worries of the day. And then there are some foods that look so pretty and taste so amazing that it’s impossible to decide whether…
Fall favorites: Spice-filled scones, oatmeal and cookies galore!
Last night while clicking through baby-related inspiration on Pinterest, I came across a recipe for labor cookies. Have you heard of those? Apparently, whipping up and consuming a batch of these puppies is a surefire way (notice the use of the word “apparently”) to meet your new baby bean before the week is over. Of…
A dinner shortcut — so good I feel guilty!
As a fairly regular fixture in the kitchen, I’ve started to somewhat pride myself on the homemade-ness of our little family’s meals, snacks and baked goods. We don’t buy cookies in boxes or muffins from the grocery store. Our freezer is shockingly empty save for a few things I’ve made ahead and frozen for another…
The food blogging conundrum: Saving room for favorites
Writing a food-filled blog for the past year has turned out to be a pretty fun gig. Not only have I had a chance to sharpen my kitchen skills and experiment with recipes, but Jared and I have also enjoyed our share of yumminess from the ever-changing post subjects. I’ve tried things I never thought…
It’s not easy being cheesy
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…
