These cozy winter days are for soup and all things warm and delicious don’t you agree? I have gotten into the habit of baking a fresh loaf or two of sourdough every Monday morning, and preparing a quick pot of soup to go with it. My kids are huge fans of traditional Potato Leek soup,…
Easy Apple Galette
Thanksgiving will always be one of my favorite holidays whether I’m celebrating with my household or my whole big family. The food is just my favorite, and I fully intend to have leftovers for days if that’s what it takes to get a taste of everything this year. I’m popping in to share a smaller…
Pumpkin Cinnamon Roll Scones
The holidays are weird this year. Well everything is weird this year, but I for one am struggling to find my identity without cooking and baking for large groups of people. Since the beginning of the pandemic in March, I’ve gotten by with a little help from baking. I started with croissants, cookies, anything…
Apple Spice Cake with Brown Butter Glaze
Have you been apple picking this fall? If so, chances are your kitchen is full of bags of shiny apples just waiting for a delicious fall creation. In my kitchen there’s always a batch of homemade apple sauce on hand, (no recipe I always just wing it,) a Caramel Apple Upside Down Cake and at…
Creamy Lemon Ice Cream
It’s National Ice Cream Month!!! I am aware that the month of July is going to be over soon, but that doesn’t mean I can’t have an Ice Cream bonanza for the next few days. Also, I can’t turn my oven on as much as I used to due to the fact that it’s…
August’s Birth Story
Here’s a non food related post if you’re up for it. I enjoyed sharing Hugo’s Birth Story and Fiona’s Birth Story, so check those out too if you’d like. This is a long post so bear with me as I share this story. Thanks for reading! I found out I was pregnant on 8/28/19- Hugo’s…
Homemade Almond Croissants
Like many others, I have been spending much of this quarantine baking long and involved recipes to fill the days. Loaves of sourdough, cinnamon rolls, and of course croissants! I have made them a few times in the past, but never felt like I’d really mastered them, and this recipe is my far my favorite…
Easy One-Bowl Spice Cake
You may be aware of my eternal love for easy, one-bowl desserts. Yes, we can all get excited about a complex, more advanced cake recipe now and then, but in my heart of hearts, simple straightforward desserts will always be my fave. This cake is just that. One bowl- easy, and you can make it…
Lemon Poppyseed Buns
I consider myself to be a pretty good houseguest. I keep my room nice and tidy, offer to do the dishes, and often get in the kitchen to cook a couple meals for the family I’m staying with. My favorite thing to do when I’m visiting friends, however, is wake up early and get a…
Mama’s Mujadara (Lentils, Rice & Crispies!)
There is something bittersweet about learning to make the meal you always ask for when you visit your Mom’s kitchen. Yes I feel proud and accomplished to have mastered one of my favorite dishes, now having a healthy, meatless dinner option that my kids love in my repertoire, but at the same time it feels…
