This is one of my favourite things to make on a Sunday morning when I want something special for breakfast/brunch, but don’t want to stand around making pancakes or waffles for an hour. There’s a long history behind Dutch Babies and their origins (which you can read about online if you wish), but today we’ll......
Lydia and I made a triumphant return to NYC at the end of April, and this time we had a special guest – Lyd’s 13 year old son Ethan! We were excited to show him all our New York faves, and I was excited to eat like a teenage boy for the weekend. We ended......
Well this is going to be a quick one since the month was bookended by my Pacific Northwest adventure and a weekend in NYC (more coming on that soon!). I didn’t cook or go out too much in between, but here are few noteworthy eats: I went to Chris & Debbie’s for Easter, and Debbie......
The second stop on my little tour of the Pacific Northwest was, of course, Seattle. While I’ve always wanted to visit the PNW (numerous obsessions listed here), the catalyst for this trip was actually Alison Roman‘s Cookbook Tour for her new baking book, Sweet Enough. Tangent alert: after my friend Dafna got to not only......
I’ve been pretty obsessed with the Pacific Northwest my whole life, due to numerous pop culture influences while growing up in the ’90s (see: Twin Peaks, Nirvana, and the Sonics NBA Finals run in 1996, among others) and have always wanted to visit. I had some vacation days to use up at the end of......
Sometimes March can be such a struggle to get through, even with the promise of Spring so close by! Apparently I got through it by baking FOUR cakes, and planning a fun adventure you’ll hear more about soon: I kicked off the month by going to my friend Jen’s birthday party, which started at Famous......
I’ve been lusting after these cookies ever since Sally posted them last summer. I just needed a good excuse to make them, and that came in the form of my friend Jen’s birthday party this month. She loves chocolate and peanut butter so I knew they’d be perfect. I’ve tried a few recipes like this......
I really went all out with my Valentine’s baking this month (see here + here); it was so fun to be able to share treats again after two Valentine’s in lockdown! I also got invited to a Galentine’s Party! Here’s the scoop: I kicked off the month by going to Campechano with my Libra Gang......
The first time people see these cookies (me included), the first question is: how’d you get the heart in there? I’ve never clicked on anything so fast when Deb posted them last February, and slowly a light went on in my brain when I saw how the whole thing worked. I saved them for this......
I love baking for Valentine’s Day/Galentine’s Day, and since I didn’t really make any treats for Christmas, I was excited to spend some time in the kitchen, and had a super long list of things I wanted to bake. I also had two years worth of Val’s/Gal’s recipes stored up since we were in lockdown......
