First off, this is a terrible picture. It is not doing justice to the absolute decadence and deliciousness within. I’m blogging it anyway because it was SO GOOD, and I brought it to my last in person gathering before Omicron descended on our lives and the rest of all my Friendsmas plans were cancelled (sad......
This time last year, we were in lockdown and I decided to try to find my holy grail Ginger Molasses Cookie recipe. I normally never like making the same recipe or type of recipe multiple times because I lose interest really fast, but I was bored so thought it was a good time for some......
November is usually a low-key month for me, and this year was no exception. I cooked a lot of great food at home and have started a list of my go-to recipes that I need to finally document here in the new year: This seems like something from another era, but I had an epic......
When Claire posted her recipe for English Muffins back in the summer, I borrowed my brother’s cast-iron skillet so I could give them a try. This was perfect timing, because he was about to embark on a kitchen reno, so there wouldn’t be any cooking happening over there for a while. But then I kept......
This is just a quick post to remind myself that this Double Chocolate Chip Cookie recipe is perfect. These cookies are thick, chewy, deeply chocolate-y and excellent for a variety of additions.

People have started coming back to the office! Last week I had two of my co-workers come back for a day, so I welcomed them with this Pumpkin Coffee Cake which was a big hit. This week two different teammates were in, so I used up the rest of my pumpkin puree from the can......
After all the treats of Thanksgiving and my birthday, I found myself at the office one day in search of something fresh for lunch. I was trying to think back to my pre-pandemic, pre-non profit days in the Financial District and what my go-to moves for lunch were and the Santa Fe Salad from Earls......
For the second year in a row, I wasn’t feeling like making a cake for my birthday. I’ve been obsessed with New Pie Co. for a while, so I decided to try to reverse engineer one of their pies that I was drooling over on Instagram for a while. I’m not sure if the name......
Life continues to slowly inch its way to returning to normal, and I was so happy to have friends over to my place this month! Here’s what was going on: I almost missed PICKLING SZN because of my Wedding Cake Project and Ottawa trip at the beginning of the month, but got organized enough to......
