Moscow Mule

This song makes me dance, this picture makes me happy, this dude makes me swoon, and this drink reminds me of going to New York, and Christmas Eve and Green Dot Stables. I love it! And there’s something so special about drinking this out of a copper mug. And there’s something even more special about making your own ginger beer. And well, I’d like to whip these up and cheers with a hottie! I’d like to…

Pumpkin Cornbread

I’ve made this a bunch, you guys! I love it so very much. I like it with cider or coffee for breakfast and with soup for dinner, or even as a late night snack with honey butter. Sometimes I eat all the cornbread. Sometimes I ask Elliot if he can tell that I ate an embarrassing amount. He always says I still look fly. I’m thinking he’s being a bit too nice, but I love…

Chocolate Chip Cookies Forever

Because I’m hungry for every single chocolate chip cookie remix ever. Because the other day I pumped gas and it overflowed on my foot. Because it’s so cold in my apartment. Because I can’t find matching socks. Because I have dishes to put away. Because I’m currently using my pre-teen boom box to listen to music at home. Because I can’t save snacks until I’m hungry at work. Because I laid in the sun on…

Ginger Beer

I don’t know what I’m doing, you guys. I occasionally walk into wherever to meet my friends and say, “What uuuuuup!” while doing the raise-the-roof hand motion. I get stressed about silly things. I’m awful at most paper crafts. (I cut things out all jagged-like.) I sometimes doubt the stuff I’m baking when it takes too long to set… But you know what? This ginger beer makes me feel like a super cool Hermione of…

Chewy Ginger Chocolate Chunk Cookies

Is it cold where you’re at? These cookies will warm you right up. They’re like that new coat you bought. You know, the one that goes swimmingly with your favorite coral pants. While the coat isn’t as warm as it is fashionable, these cookies are toasty and equally pretty. These would pair well with a cozy night in. Or a casual day when you need some cookies in your life. Call your neighbor and have…

Pumpkin Crepes

I’ve been drinking pumpkin beer and eating sandwiches on pumpkin bread. I’ve been using pumpkin puree to get Elliot to eat his medicine. I’ve been pinning pumpkin-painting ideas. To say, I’m totally in love with pumpkin is an understatement. I just really hope you guys aren’t totally over it, because these crepes are super good. They’re worth breakfasting on, it’s the truth. These would be extra awesome with a maple cream cheese filling.  I served…

Pumpkin Mini Donuts + Brown Butter Glaze, Pecans, and Caramel

It’s always donut weather to me, but at the moment it’s REALLY donut weather. It’s time to go to the cider mill and get a half dozen donuts for yourself. It’s time to chug cider until your tum is an ocean. It’s time to wander on nature trails to nowhere. It’s time to put salted caramel on and in everything. It’s donut o’clock. Can you believe this recipe makes either 6 big donuts or like…

Pumpkin Sandwich Bread {revisited}

I find bread to be super comforting. So, let’s split a piece of warm bread right out of the oven ok? We can talk at the kitchen table. Let’s feel our feelings while snacking. Let’s turn off the heat and turn on the oven. The truth is, I’ll always want the biggest breadstick if out dining out. I’ll probably want to eat your corn bread right off your plate. I might make two pieces of…

Spiced Biscoff Sandwich Cookies

I’m a Biscoff bully. Believe it. Since purchasing Speculoos Cookie Butter I’ve pretty much made everyone who stops by my house try it. There’s a three spoonful minimum. It’s a fact, and it’s ok. You see, it tastes like spicy graham cracker goodness. It’s my dream butta’. It’s just delicious and confusing. It’s just the kind of thing that you can’t get enough of. It’s puzzling and awesome at the same time. And it’s thoughtful!…
