I could write a lot here about these muffins, but is that what you really want? A story about why I chose these particular muffins and the background of what I was feeling at the time? Probably not. You saw the title and you’re like, “Ooh, muffins – put that recipe in my face right […]

Recipe – Garlic Soup
Normally when I share a more formalized recipe, there’s a specific place I can point to and you can look and see for yourself what my source was. “Aha,” you’ll say, “Interesting recipe – I wonder what else that blog has to say about…” etcetera. The point is, there’s usually a live link. Today’s recipe […]
Recipe – Farro Broccoli Bowl with Lemon Tahini
So, this was the first recipe I made out of the New York Times Cooking app. It just looked so bright and colorful in the article and newsletter that I was transfixed. Plus, I liked everything that was mentioned in the recipe title. Farro? Yes. Broccoli? Hell yes. Lemon and Tahini? Yes and yes again. […]
App/Recipes – NYT Cooking
I love to cook – have you noticed? It’s the kind of thing where it helps me to relax (mostly if it goes well and according to plan – let’s not discuss the recent monkey bread debacle I had). Having a set of instructions, paired with the right ingredients and knowing that what comes out […]
Recipe – Cheddar Cauliflower Soup
I love soup. For me it is the best thing you could possibly have to eat when it’s cold and nasty out. It is the ultimate food for lazy people, because there is not usually much chewing involved, and because there are some soups that while they are full of vegetables, are secretly just vehicles […]
Recipe – Homemade Biscuits
I have been having a lot of breakfast cravings recently – and don’t worry, this is not a pregnancy hint. No, I think what it is is finding myself awake in the mornings on weekends earlier than I would previously have chosen (thank you, Baby Girl), and in the mornings I want breakfast, and that […]
Recipe – Steak and Sweet Potato Bites
I am always on the lookout for quick and easy weeknight meals. Things that the family will like that don’t require hours of prep time, which involve vegetables, and aren’t going to turn the kitchen into a disaster zone. Things which won’t cost an arm and a leg, and which I will be proud of […]
Recipe – Cheddar Walnut Scones
Apologies for the lack of post on Monday – we had a snowstorm, and I was home with the baby all day an didn’t have time to write. So no post. Next week will also be a two-post week because of the holiday on Monday, but if you’ve been reading this blog for a while, […]
Recipe – Greek Yogurt Pancakes
I don’t know about you, but sometimes I just have a hankering – to do a thing, eat a thing, make a thing. And a few weeks ago, that particular hankering was related to breakfast. It was a Sunday morning, and the baby had slept well, so I was feeling good. And I woke up […]
Recipe – Garlic Roasted Brussels Sprouts
Is it possible that I’m too predictable? When Thanksgiving rolled around this year, my aunt – who hosts – was assigning sides for people to bring, and I was given Brussels sprouts. Maybe it’s just known that I love them. I do cook with them often enough that it would be known. I’m pretty sure […]
