You guys, I keep buying a dozen eggs and then a dozen more. I guess I’m super scared to run out ever, ya know? They’re my go-to lunch and my emergency single-lady dinner. And what if I need to make a french silk pie? So, I’ve had eggs to spare just begging to turn into a angel food cake. How could I say no? And I’ve had an angel food cake pan just dying to be…
You’re the tops! You are the pumpkin marshmallows in my hot cocoa. You’re the gruyere on my Cuban sandwich. You’re the beer with my burger, the prosciutto on my pizza, the jam on my toast. The moral of the story is that you’re the pancakes on my ice cream sundae, ya know? P.S. That lovely cup is from Scout, one of my favorite shops! I kinda want to collect all the purple-y pink iridescent goodness.…
Because breakfast wins best meal award*. (*Based on the dessert-as-a-meal-thing, obvz.) Because my countertops are covered with dishes and my bed is covered with laundry. Because my car seats are covered in sesame seeds from emergency bagel-ing on the regular. Because I’m good at running out of milk, cereal, bread for toasting, and general breakfast foods. Because I took a 2-hour nap Saturday and then ran out of daylight. Because my favorite cowboy boots are…
Let’s spend our days snacking on fancy cheese. Let’s impress our guests by serving cheese as dessert. Or maybe we should just assemble the cutest cheese plate for casual (yet classy) lunching. I wouldn’t judge you for eating blue cheese in your car or provolone on the way from the grocery store. I’ve been there. So anyhow, check out my post right here for 6 different cheese plate combos! There’s a sneak peek of 4 of them…
This French silk pie method came to me as I was falling asleep. The next day I called my mom and asked her if she thought it’d work. She said, “Well, if it doesn’t work it’ll still be tasty, so just eat it.” I said, “But there’s only one of me!” So there ya go. I’d like portable pie in my life always. Because who knows when you’ll need to drive a car with a…
So, do any of you guys tend to do the good old pants dance where you tug your pants up by the belt loops? I guess I yanked the hell out of my red corduroys because I ripped them like whoa. And so I FINALLY decided to fix that tear and while I was cutting the hot pink (I couldn’t find red) thread I snipped a hole in the leg of those same red pants.…
Last Thursday Elliot’s vet called and asked me to make cake and ice cream for her daughter’s 10th birthday. She wanted Dark Chocolate Oreo Blizzard Ice Cream and Vanilla Bean Cake with Vanilla Bean Whipped Buttercream. I wanted to keep the cake simple, but make a fancy fun cake topper, so this is what I made! While the cake layers cooled and the ice cream churned, I cut out triangles and fringe and floral wired…
I haven’t gone running since I stepped on a dead mouse 2 weeks ago. I haven’t folded the laundry from last week. I just keep moving the pile around. I haven’t returned the library book I checked out months ago. But mostly, I haven’t used this little heart waffle maker since a Belgian waffle maker came into my heart, life, and kitchen. I’m a fool! I love all waffles. You see, I’m an equal opportunity…
Late Thursday night two of my favorite fellas and I arrived in San Francisco. We were super hungry because everyone knows that flights always start before you’re hungry and end at just about the time you think you might have to eat 6 bags of mini pretzels in a row just to survive. My BFF Katie and her husband, Mark, picked us up and took us straight to In-N-Out. We got our burgers animal-style and now…
Please try to ignore that little dent in the top of the loaf where I tried to flick it for that “hollow” sound and just flicked the hell out of it. Please try to ignore the fact that I can easily take down a loaf of bread in a single lady household. Please make this as soon as you possibly can. You see, I like to slice a homemade loaf, and package it up in…
