Just because I can.

Yes, I’m posting. No, this doesn’t have anything to do with food. Well…unless you count all the super awesome foods I plan on having whilst in Hawaii. Like this and this.
No, I’m posting to get out all the OMGIMGETTINGMARRIED giddiness that I’ve got rattling around my birdcage today. You see, today is [...]

Cinnamon Raisin Swirl Bread

As I mentioned earlier, I was in a baking/cooking frenzy this weekend. Yet another item on my 101 in 1001 list of things to do was “Bake really awesome bread from scratch” or something like that. So I figured I could make focaccia or something similarly easy and mark it as done. [...]

Red Velvet Cuppin’ Cakes

So since I haven’t been cooking all that much recently I decided that I’d go all out this past weekend. Not only that but I wanted to try new things. Lots of fun stuff that I’ve been meaning to try but haven’t. It also helps that a few of them are on [...]

Smokey Stovetop Macaroni and Cheese

Okay y’all. I’m posting this because I tried something the other night that literally knocked my socks off. That was so amazingly delicious that when I ate it I nearly swoon’d at every single bite. I would have taken pictures but it was mostly the product of me digging out what I [...]

Ivonne’s Lawsuit Muffins

Being the budding domestic ungoddess that I am, frequently I get the hankering for some muffins. Not just any ordinary muffins will do. It needs to be from scratch blueberry muffins. The recipe I use is one that I found via Kitchen Wench aka Ellie who got the recipe from Cream Puff’s [...]

Top 5 - Guilty Pleasure Foods

For someone who cooks on almost every night, most of my guilty pleasure foods are ones that require little to no cooking. Be it fast food, freezer food, junk food, etc. Stuff I absolutely love to eat but feel guilty about having because I’m not serving a home made meal.

Pasta e Fagioli

Being my mothers daughter, there are very few things I love more than a good steamy bowl of soup and some nice crusty bread for dipping. If you need further evidence see here. The difficult thing is that I don’t always have 2 hours to spend preparing said soup. Sadness and woe [...]
