Wedge Salad
At least once a week, I make something in my tiny kitchen for a group that ranges from 6 to 18 people. Everyone brings a little something. We have a lot of fun, and it’s always a challenge to cook a large quantity of food from my kitchen which isn’t a casserole and can easily […]
Wine and Cheese
What started as a thought and urge to build a cheese board turned into an extravagant event. I started seeing cheese boards that were so aesthetically beautiful, I just wanted to make one of my own. This journal was still in the works, and I thought I’d do it. Then I spoke the idea out […]
Brûléed Rice Pudding
I grew up with a mother who cooked a lot of meals from scratch. She made most of the food, but there were certain evenings where my dad had to fulfill his crazy sweet tooth. He’d make rice pudding, and this brûléed rice pudding reminded me of those school night evenings. There aren’t many memories […]
Buttermilk Panna Cotta with Berry Compote
I love making panna cotta for dinner parties. They’re so delicious and you can make them in advance. If lazy fancy was a category, that’d be my life. I made these special for the Feedfeed’s SnapChat take over. I love SnapChat because I love to see behind the scenes of my favorite food bloggers. I […]
Brown Buttered Cinnamon Rolls
For the longest time, I would only make cinnamon rolls twice a year. Once for my gentleband’s birthday, and again on Christmas as a request by the gentleband as one of his presents. Can you tell who liked cinnamon rolls? He loves cinnamon rolls. I don’t mind cinnamon rolls, but I really hated making them. […]
Tartiflette
Baked goods are so much prettier than entrees, but I didn’t want to just write about all of my baking endeavors. Mostly because I eat all of those baked goods and I need a break from all the sweets. I honestly prefer savory over sweet, but those macarons are so precious to photograph. I wanted […]
Almond Scones with Lemon Curd
Starting this journal has been so much fun and has really pushed me to do more research and cook and bake more. I love talking about food, and I love sharing food. My introvert self can hold a conversation quite some time when the topic is food. I wanted this to be a journal where […]
Earl Grey Chocolate Ganache Macaron
I sat in the car this morning listening to a man who hears music in the distance at all times. It was medically proven that this is an actual condition. He spoke about how in the beginning, the conductor of his mind would mess up the tempo to certain songs and it drove him nuts. […]
Chicken Tikka Masala
I lived in a three bedroom condo with 4 other girls. It was such a sweet time in my life and we lived in community. What that meant to me was sharing what we had with each other. This included food. One of those girls put curry powder on everything. I ate the dishes she […]
Blueberry Cardamom Galette
I’d much rather have a bowl of vegetables than a bowl of fruit. I would rather have savory over sweet most days. That’s what I love about blueberries. They aren’t so sweet that I can’t enjoy a giant bowl of them. This particular entry was inspired by my friend Ashlyn! She is one of the […]
