PBOCC Cookies (Peanut Butter Oatmeal Carob Chip)
It’s so cute when my husband requests cookies. He’s all, “would it be okay if maybe you made some cookies sometime this week, maybe?” Like I’m going to say no to a cookie request. Adorable. This week, he asked for something with peanut butter, preferably something soft. I didn’t want to make your basic peanut […]
Baked Sweet Onion Dip
Warning: This is not good for you. Just sayin’. If you’re wondering why I’m even posting this recipe, you should know that I made this dip one time, two years ago, and I still think about it. This stuff is dangerously addicting. This is the kind of food that makes you think, “Wow. I now […]
Lemon Basil Flatbreads
Bad news, people. I didn’t make it to the next level of Project Foodbuzz. Lamesville, right? Oh, well. It was pretty serious competition, and my photos for the last challenge weren’t the best, so I graciously accept defeat and move on to bigger and tastier things. Thanks for all the voting and support along the […]
Chicken Burritos and Tomato Avocado Salad
Burritos! Never eat them, never make them. And then I did, and here they are. Sorry, but I am not a fan of those giant burritos the size of your head that the serve at the Q and the C and the M’s. There must be like 4 million calories in one of those things. […]
Goat Cheese & Thyme Souffle
So this is Foodbuzz competition seems to be going pretty well for me. I’m just waiting for the other shoe to drop, you know what I mean? It seems pretty crazy that I made it to the third round. I hope this good fortune keeps up! This is one of the dishes from the dinner […]
Double Apple Bundt Cake
Today’s TWD pick, courtesy of Lynne at Honey Muffin, is the ol’ Double Apple Bundt Cake. It’s called double apple because the recipe includes both grated apples and apple butter. Let me just say- I was amazed to find apple butter in the commissary. I was under some delusion that apple butter only existed in […]
Opa! Greek Festivals 101
I’ve always had a fascination with Greece. Greek food, culture, all of it. There’s something about all that blue and white that makes me want to get to the shores of Greece ASAP. We almost went last year, but ended up in Italy instead. Forget France– I’m going to Greece if I win PFB! […]
Womp, Womp.
Remember when I told you about French Fridays with Dorie, the new TWD spin-off group? Well, yesterday was opening day for FFWD, and the first recipe was for Gougeres, those tasty little French cheese puffs. I would have loved to make (and eat!) these, but I was wrapped up in my Project Food Blog bubble […]
Luxe Made Easy: A French-Inspired Dinner for 8 [PFB Challenge #3]
We made it to the next round of PFB! We’re now down to just 200 bloggers. What better way to celebrate than invite six people over, stress all week about the menu, and go crazy cooking and cleaning all day? Someone pass the wine already! The challenge was to host a luxury dinner party. To […]
PB&J Ice Cream
When I was in school, everybody used to always say high school and college were so great and that I would really miss them when they were over. I was like, “Yeah, right. I’m super cool and grown-up and I’m ready for the real world. You don’t know what you’re talking about. Seriously, I’m like […]
