Yes, I was excited when I read the title of the recipe too. Those three yummy tastes in one loaf of bread? It’s too good to be true. I had no intention of making this today. I had two other things lined up for the oven in preparation for tomorrow. […]
Now for the cinnamon rolls
You know how you realize something is probably not good for you, but it looks so tasty, that you decide to go ahead and make it anyway? That’s where I was with these cinnamon rolls. I’ve never made cinnamon rolls before. I haven’t eaten that many either, to be honest. […]
Kiss us, we’re Irish
We are waiting, sort of patiently, for spring to arrive. I think this past winter (it’s officially spring, so I think I’m allowed to put it in the past, cold temps withstanding) will be one for the record books. Well, at least I hope it will. If I have that […]
More potatoes and a candle
Since my last potato post, we went on a vacation. But I’ll go against my instincts of posting in chronological order and share today’s meal first. Because it was super easy to make and super delicious. Red potatoes + sweet potatoes = potato goat cheese gratin. The original recipe called […]
Mr. Potato, I love you!
I made a mistake the other day that was one of those awesome I’m-glad-I-made-that-mistake mistakes. You’ve had them, right? I wanted to make a pizza with potatoes on it. With goat cheese. Doesn’t that sound gooooood? So I was going to roast the potatoes and then bake up the pizza. […]
Costco love = super-tasty donuts
I love Costco. Before we joined, a friend of mine used to go on and on and on about how much she loved Costco. And it drove me nuts. “Shut up about Costco!” I wanted to yell. (But I didn’t. Because I love her and that might just have hurt […]
Chocolate chip yumminess
Amazon delivered my 5-lb. bag of almond flour today. On the back of said bag of flour was a recipe for chocolate chip cookies. Looking through the ingredients I was happy to note that I had everything I needed to make them. So why not, right? So, so glad that […]
The kitchen has been my friend lately
I’m not quite sure how my psyche decides when it’s OK with things and when it’s not. There are some days when coming up with a meal just seems like so much effort. And others when it seems to flow perfectly. These past few weeks my psyche has been good […]
So how was your holiday?
Ours was pretty sweet. Hee. No, really. It was quiet, relaxing and rather lovely. I come from an itty-bitty family (just me and my mom) and Scott’s family is spread all over the country. So our celebrations are pretty small and low-key. I was a little more inclined to bake […]
Holy butter, Batman!
I kind of knew better. I pinned these cookies a while back, but I’ve been avoiding them. Why? Because there are 18 tablespoons of butter in the cookie and the frosting combined. Ay-yi-yi! Before I had to give up gluten, my favorite recipe source was Cooking Light. I like to […]
Baking and bothersome cats
Let’s start with the cats, shall we? It’s the holiday season. We have a new kitten. You can see where this is going right? He’s only climbed into the tree once, thankfully. He knocks down just one ornament a day. Only two of them have broken so far. (Thank you, […]
Again with the angel food cake
So I took all of these photos of the angel food cake the other day and I couldn’t just not use them. Even though I covered the actual baking event in my last post, I’m sharing the visual “making of” series here. Now that I’m looking at them, though, my […]
