Easter reflections

Last year I don’t know what I was doing on Easter, but it was likely something indoors and snow avoidant.  This year I was hoping for a more cheery holiday. Not quite what I got.  Let me rephrase: not at ALL what I got. It took me a while to write this because I think I was (am) still in shock about the whole thing, even days after Easter Sunday.  What I do remember is feeling like I was having an out of body experience.  At several points I thought is this really happening?  Like,… Read more >

Maiden loaf

There’s nothing like a new food appliance to get you excited and inspired in the kitchen. After years of ooing and aahing over home-made breads, I finally made the plunge and got what I was lusting after.  I did a fair amount of research prior to buying one.  I wanted a reliable machine, but I didn’t wanna blow my bank account on some fancy schmancy professional breadmaker.  I’m not going on Top Chef any time soon after all. And so I settled on the Sunbeam 2 lb. Breadmaker – model 5981.  My maiden loaf was… Read more >

Intuition

You may have noticed that I took some time off from blogging this week.  Many people turn to rules and the likes to get back on track, but I prefer the opposite.  Personally, I equate rules with restrictions, and I’m not ok with that.  If that works for you, great.  For me, it’s just unhealthy.  Instead, I go the opposite route, listening (and I mean, really paying attention) to my body for guidance.  I think that being an intuitive eater is extra difficult if you have a food blog because it just increases the amount… Read more >

Who nabbed Nana’s?

I have a new favorite cookie by the way. [Yes, I know I already revealed that’s how I feel about every single one of Nana’s cookies, but this time I may be telling the truth] The chocolate crunch flavor has a sinfully delicious rich chocolate flavor with the crunch of rice crispies mixed in.  It’s fantastic.    Anyway.  Aside from the cookie food porn, I’m only popping in to announce the winner of the Nana’s giveaway. I really enjoyed reading everyone’s cute cookie memories.  And other drool inducing comments.  As for the randomly generated winner…congrats… Read more >

Cookie Sunday

This post will be especially appealing to the following people: people who are gluten free people who are vegan people who gave up sweets for Lent (and are now able to indulge) people who like cookies 🙂 If you are none of the above, then perhaps you should reevaluate your life stop reading.  For the rest of you… This is where the good stuff is. Nana’s cookies have always been my absolute favorite.  I’ve tried MANY dairy free desserts, and there’s always something a little bit off about the flavor/texture/whatever, but not with Nana’s.  They… Read more >
