Our tree is up, there is a mess of Christmas decorations all around the house – it seems like the perfect time to break out the eggnog. I can’t imagine a better way to have my eggnog than ooey gooey cinnamon rolls filled with nutmeg and cinnamon swirl and eggnog in the batter and in…

thanksgiving leftovers turkey enchiladas
I’m all about finding fun ways to use up Thanksgiving leftovers. In the past I have made Thanksgiving leftovers grilled cheese, with turkey, green apple, cranberry sauce, mustard, and gruyere, post-Thanksgiving biscuit sandwiches on sweet potato biscuits, and most recently, cranberry quick bread. These turkey enchiladas with butternut squash sauce might just be my favorite…
cranberry quick bread
Welcome aboard the Thanksgiving Express! I was going to name this Leftover Cranberry Sauce Quick Bread, but Cranberry Quick Bread had a slightly better ring ;) Unlike some bakers and cooks who love the food-centric day, Thanksgiving is not my favorite holiday. I enjoy spending time with family and relaxing in the midst of a…
pumpkin cream puffs with chocolate glaze
It is with excitement and imaginary falling leaf confetti that I welcome to the 2018 virtual pumpkin party! You all know how much I love pumpkin, so it should not come as a shock that I am absolutely ecstatic to take part in this year’s virtual pumpkin party across the internet and share a fun…
homemade everything pretzel bites
If you read my 60 before 30 list, you may remember that I have never successfully made yeasted bread on my own before. After making these fun homemade everything pretzels in one try though, I think I figured out part of it. I may have been using the wrong type of yeast. Facepalm. You may…
s’mores cookies
It is the week of 4th of July, which means it is high time for our annual s’mores inspired recipe! S’mores cookies are my new favorite way to enjoy the flavors of the summertime treat without having to start up a fire to roast marshmallows or going to bed with bonfire hair (you feel me?)….
roasted berry coffee cake
Our family has a Memorial Day brunch tradition. It started naturally. A few years ago, I came home from college for the summer and as Memorial Day approached, my family realized we would all be home for the holiday and didn’t have plans. As we like to do, we turned to brunch on the back…
caramelized lemon tart and the story of our lemon tree
This lemon tart has been two years in the making. Not to scare you, you will be able to make yours in one afternoon, but ours began when we brought a lemon tree home more than two years ago. We got the tree when we found out we were going to move and would have…
dark chocolate chunk espresso shortbread
In the past few weeks, it seems like everyone on the Internet has been making Alison Roman’s salted butter and dark chocolate chunk shortbread cookies. Cookies are my favorite baked good to make because of their versatility – there is always a twist, an addition, a substitution, or a tweak that can create an entirely…
healthy breakfast cookies
Tis’ the season for new resolutions and healthy eating. While I don’t really do New Year’s resolutions, I do like having a healthy reset after an indulgent holiday season. Healthy breakfast cookies are the perfect solution. Often times we struggle with healthy eating not because we are unsure of what is healthy and what is…
