I’d like to spend January hibernating and waking up to warm bread. I want grilled cheese sandwiches for lunch every day. Preferably with smashed avocado, mozzarella, and goat cheese. And this bread makes awesome toast. It’s perfectly sweet with honey or maple syrup. For this particular loaf I used a brown sugar and maple syrup combo. So, I hope your weeks are full of warm bread and the best toast. I hope you never run…
If you ask me what I want for breakfast, I’ll most def say PANCAKES! … unless I say waffles. But most the time, I want pancakes. So much so, that I have a little chalkboard in the kitchen with a basic buttermilk recipe written out for pancaking on the quick! So, why not have a cookie that tastes like that breakfast favorite? Why not stack them and eat 8 at time, snack-style? Basically I’m into maple-y…
To me, Christmas should be a two-meal day. GIANT breakfast served with mimosas. Cheese, crackers, and charcuterie for snacking all day. … with more champagne, of course. And then a BIG dinner. So, let’s do this, waffle-style. You see, these waffles look pretty festive, yet they’re simple! So let’s impress our Christmas guests brunch-style. Hope your holiday is everything you want it to be. Full of puppy kisses, twinkly lights, and waffles. Lemon Poppy Seed…
These shortcakes have me thinking all kinds of things. Like, I definitely need to have a shortcake party. And that there’s a chance I could be open to love with greek yogurt. And where has this deer plate been all my life? I really love it, even though everyone knows bucks are deadbeat dads. Not cool, bucks. Not cool, at all. Now the beginning of Bambie is even sadder, ya know? Jeez. But let’s refocus.…
Let’s restart. Let’s toast to the new year now! I’m not going to lie. I keep thinking that I can’t wait for this year to end. Too many crazy things have happened that I no longer want to share a year with. But my friend mentioned that maybe I should start my new year now, ya’ know? Toast now! Instead of wishing the year away, take a fresh start immediately. So let’s put champagne in our…
Because dessert needs to happen with a picnic lunch, and because I had a bunch of hay in my boots when I got home. You see, Friday, I took the day off and headed to Upland Hills Farms. My friend’s niece had a field trip, so a couple of us ladies went too! We made a giant Italian sandwich and a tasty orzo salad for our picnic lunch. And since this particular little girl loves…
Saturday night I had brussel sprouts for dinner. Sunday morning I had these guys. A breakfast fit for Marie Antoinette. If only I would’ve paired pink champagne with this stack of heaven. So there you go! I’m on the vegetable and pancake diet. I’ve wanted to make ricotta pancakes since I had some dreamy ones at Five Leaves in New York. I guess I should be adding ricotta to every pancake I eat from now…
The truth is, I’m going to New York tomorrow. It’s my first time and I’m pretty much bursting with excitement! I think I’m going to go to Baked, and Momofuko, and I have plans to eat giant slices of pizza and wear party dresses for no reason. (!!!!) I’m going with a lady friend and staying with this one! Let’s just say that good food will be happening. But first, waffles! I made these for my…
I’ve been listening to Halo by Beyonce lately because of that part in Girls where Hannah does the dance from the video. I’ve been sleeping in as late as possible before work. I’ve paid too much attention to my snooze button. I’ve worn hot pink pants, and called my mom because I miss her. And I’ve made you guys this cornbread. I sprinkled it with giant sweet blueberries* and crumbled goat cheese. I’ve eaten it for…
I’m a cereal monster. I’m like Jerry Seinfeld. I love it. It probably has a lot to do with my carb-love. Because of this fact, I knew I needed to make this granola! Cindy’s been raving about it to me, and she knows what’s up. Granola is super-simlple and so tasty! It also looks cute in a jar out on the counter. It has the looks and the personality. Be sure to to sample this…
