You guys! For real! Listen to this song while you stir this simmering jam. I promise that the combination of this song, the stirring, and the color of this jam that everything will be ok. Do yourself a favor and make some biscuits for with it. You’ll probably sit down to breakfast and eat two with your brie and mushroom scramble. You’ll probably eat one more afterword for dessert. You might turn one into a watermelon slice…
Because ice cream is so often the answer. Because sometimes I bake banana bread at 10pm. Because sometimes Tom Waits sings just the right song at just the right moment. Because it’s spring. Because summer is right around the corner. Because I bought new cowboy boots. Because I get to visit my BFF in June. Because my weekends are full of fun adventures these days. Because Stella beer cheers are what’s up. Because I only…
It was 70 degrees yesterday! I wore a dress with ankle boots and NO tights. This means that summer can happen in a state that won a snow record. A state that had snow multiple feet high for months. Consider this ice cream me raising the roof to summer beccause I want to serve it as a side dish to pulled pork sandwiches and right with some grilled everything. You see, this is honey ice…
You guys, it’s spring. For real. It’s time to crack the windows, bake cookies for work, pizza for your favorites, and granola for the hotties in your life. Below are 3 recipes from my Instagram that I really think you guys should know about. I mean, sometimes baking and dancing happens on a weeknight and there’s no time for photographing these in a fancy manor… So here you go! I really loved these whoopie pies.…
This weekend has been magic. Not only was the weather 70 degrees (!!!) but I had musical adventures, pizza, and made cookies. I also finally nailed the hand clap in the bridge in G.U.Y. on a run. (Lady Gaga, so what) There was plenty of Stella Artois, backyard lounging, and dining room dancing. Spring has arrived, you guys. It’s here with one single daffodil in my backyard and even if it snows Tuesday, I won’t trust…
I like a little bit of consistency in life. I just like knowing there will always be blue cheese crumbles at the Whole Foods salad bar even if sometimes they only have fake chicken and no grated zucchini. I like to know that I’ve got party supplies in my desk at work in case I bring cookies in and need to put heart napkins out. I like to know that without a doubt ice cream…
Stephanie at Girl Versus Dough is having a baby! A girl! And if this isn’t a reason to put rhubarb in everything to make it ladylike and pink, I don’t know what is. So let’s make this lemonade and toast to Stephanie and the future little lady in her life. This lemonade could easily be frozen into ice pops. It could just as easily be mixed with vodka (not right now, Stephanie) for sipping in…
I’ve been trying to pay attention. To notice the moments where I feel happy and just live in them, ya know? Way back in June when I made the asparagus remix to this quiche I remember feeling super happy whisking the polenta for 10 minutes. Whisking is total zen. We’ve talked about this before, I think. But back then was a tricky time for me. I felt kinda lost and sort of unsure of what…
Sometimes it feels weird to listen to Tegan & Sara while your landlord fixes the thermostat. Sometimes it’s more weird for your heat to go out like 5 times though in a few months! But the truth is Elliot really loves the landlord? Almost as much as this one plumber from a long time ago. I don’t know what it was about that dude! Elliot ran laps of the apartment! Maybe he was a plumber…
