Our Little Gentleman’s First Birthday Bash
We had a big day this weekend. A big first birthday! I decided months ago that I wanted to plan a little gentleman’s theme for Elliott’s first birthday. Let’s just face it- there’s nothing cuter than a baby with a bow tie. Or a mustache! See? Adorable.Before I did any major party planning or […]
Mini Frittatas
It’s March! That means it’s Brunch month in my Great Food Adventure. To tell you the truth, I’m relieved. Those macarons last month were giving me drama. I think brunch is one of the greatest ideas ever. I only wish I could enjoy it more! I’m always ravenous in the morning and the bean never […]
Mint Chocolate Macarons
After my dismal/embarrassing first try at macarons earlier this month, I picked up my spatula and gave it another go. I will not be defeated by a cookie. I wasn’t sure where to go from the first recipe, but I wanted to make something green for St. Pat’s. Since I already hit you with my […]
Fruit and Nut Granola
This post is long overdue. I am a granola person. It’s just how I roll. Not only that, but I’m a picky granola person. I like my granola just so. And maybe that’s why I’ve waited so long to make it for myself. I wouldn’t want to force down a batch of bad granola.. yuck. […]
Strawberry Ice Cream
Remember Monday? When I couldn’t deliver my Valentine’s Day gift to you? So lame. You deserve better. You deserve strawberry ice cream. Can we still be valentines? Good. Moving on. You know what’s even better than making this ice cream for your sweetheart on VDay? Making it for them a week later. Then, not only […]
Love and Chocolate
Happy Valentine’s Day, beautiful people! Love is in the air. I did make you some delicious strawberry ice cream, but I can’t download the pictures at my current location, so you’ll just have to wait in anticipation for your V-Day gift. I do love you, though, so I’m going to share some of my favorite […]
Banana Muffins and Bake It Pretty
Have any of you ever brought dozens of bananas to a big group breakfast thing and end up bringing most of them back to your house because no one in your town likes bananas? It happens. It happens to me. Good thing around here we are banana-eating-machines (baby is included/the main culprit). It’s definitely a […]
Winter Quiche
Finally, a post! I have been trying hard to get something new up for you this weekend, but I’ve been busy living life. You know how it goes. I was busy eating every last crumb of this quiche. I really wanted quiche this weekend, but I wasn’t sure what I wanted to put in it. […]
Pumpkin Bread with Ricotta and Cream Cheese Swirl
You had to know I was gonna throw a pumpkin bread recipe in the mix! How can you not? It’s Pumpkin Palooza, people. I think quick breads are one of the best ways to use pumpkin. It’s hard to find a quick bread moister (? weird.) than one made with pumpkin. People who make great […]
Tea Time Muffins
When it comes to hot drinks, I’ll always choose tea over coffee. I don’t know what it is about coffee.. I love the smell, but I just can’t get into it. I’ve never been into caffeine. So when Rhiani picked Coffee Break Muffins for this week’s TWD, I made my tried-and-true choice and used tea […]
