It’s the Great Pumpkin Muffin, Charlie Brown!

November 1, 2011 By Katrina

It’s the Great Pumpkin Muffin, Charlie Brown!

Happy belated Halloween! I hope everyone had a spooky, wonderful holiday full of tricks, treats and enough sugary bliss to last until the turkeys thaw for Thanksgiving! I love Halloween for a lot of reasons, but I think I love it most because it’s the official kickoff to my favorite time of year. Yahoo, holiday…

It’s flying from the stovetop! But it’s the prettiest of soups.

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!

October 21, 2011 By Katrina

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!

October 19, 2011 By Katrina

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

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

October 7, 2011 By Katrina

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…

Challah, you’re the flavor I was missing

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

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

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

September 15, 2011 By Katrina

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…
