Let’s get clear on one thing. I am many things, but a baker ain’t one of ’em. I try. I look at all these beautiful cobblers, and tartes and galettes and i swoon over them. but when i go to put the whisk to the flour, I often fumble. I could tell you it’s because…

Santa Cupcakes
i have had the best day. you know those days that are so cozy and relaxing that you wish you could bottle it up and take a teaspoon of it at a time when you really need it down the road? today is one of those days (i’m writing this on a sunday). i let…
Peanut Butter Spider Cookies
So, Halloween. For me, it’s really just this annoying speed bump in between labor day and thanksgiving. I’ve never been a fan. Not even when I was little. I was always dressing up in ballet for this performance or that character, so to put on some costume wasn’t all that thrilling. But holidays are also…

cranberry pistachio biscotti
i’ve missed you. you. sitting right there. reading this. don’t you know how much? i’ve been away. i was in iceland (can we talk about the awesomeness of that) and then work went kind of insane and there was just no time. like had to wear granny panties for days because i didn’t have time…
Baked Apples with Oatmeal Crisp Topping
how about them apples? you know i’ve been waiting to say that all day. oh and hey september – i’m sure we had a really good time but apparently i blacked out because i don’t know where the heck you went. you’re like a fling i met on spring break that just feels like a…
