You guys! Can you believe Thanksgiving is only a week away? And I’ve been whiling away the last week with meals I’ve thrown together from random things in the fridge, rather than setting out purposefully to share some delicious Thanksgiving ideas with you. Oops. Sorry! So. I have a question. What is the one side […]
Folks…this recipe and I did not play nicely together. Truly, it wasn’t the recipe’s fault! (And don’t stop reading, because this bread pudding is extremely delicious, I promise, and I will eventually tell you about it!) I think I may have lost my mojo or something. For weeks now, almost everything I lay my hands […]
Fall is my favorite season of the year. I love the crisp, cool air, the leaves on the ground, and giving myself permission to eat heavier foods again. The week, CSA dumped a big pile of hard, green apples into my lap—perfect for making a fall dessert! Tarte tatin! This dessert is a little nerve-wracking […]

Soft but slightly crumbly dark chocolate cookie covered in sweet, sticky, stretchy caramel…*drool* So I’ve got to warn you before you make these. It’s impossible to eat just one. That’s partly because if you stack them together, it will be very difficult […]
My husband and I recently took a mini vacation in the Shenandoahs. By the way, if you have never done that, it’s beautiful! The views are just incredible, and if you get a clear night the stars will take your breath away. We had a room with no TV and no internet, which may sound […]
How many different ways can I convince myself that cake is an excellent breakfast food? It would really be impossible to count… The first time I had monkey bread was at a “cookout” breakfast at Camp Hanover. I’m not actually sure how we managed this without a proper oven…but I was only 8, so cooking […]
Pumpkin. Cake. Need I say more? (haha, just kidding…you know I’m going to say much, much more…) I know the traditional pumpkin dessert is pie, but honestly I have never really gotten behind pumpkin pie.
