Easy Mother’s Day Breakfast: Chocolate Butterscotch Croissants

Monday, May 6, 2013

You know what are not nice? Geese. When I was probably 14 or so, I didn’t know they were so territorial. There was a flock of them…a gaggle? Anyway, a lot of them on the hillside by the pool at the church camp I attended. I was all, “Heh heh. Watch this.” I ran at ...

Lemon-glazed Raspberry Lemon Muffins

Tuesday, April 9, 2013

It’s official. I’ve found myself on the road to being a Crazy Doll Lady. Which is a slightly more creepy, way less stinky, second cousin to a Crazy Cat Lady. What exactly makes a Crazy Doll Lady anyway? I mean, I think it’s pretty safe to assume that a Crazy Cat Lady meets at least ...

Chocolate Caramel Liege Waffles

Tuesday, March 5, 2013

I was going to talk to you guys about something today. I think it was gonna be funny. I don’t even remember. I don’t remember because I’m sitting here, trying to write this, minding my own business, when I see something out of the corner of my eye. About three inches away FROM MY FACE. ...

Cinnamon Swirl French Toast

Wednesday, January 30, 2013

This is a post of few words. Because cinnamon swirl french toast speaks for itself. And because I’m exhausted. The Hubster was on duty this past week. It’s a Tuesday to Tuesday thing. He has to stand duty, like, every three weeks or something…I forget the rotation. They’re always weird. Anyway. He was on duty ...

Pumpkin Gingerbread Muffins

Friday, November 23, 2012

It’s Black Friday today. Here, in the U.S. Stupid, stupid Black Friday. You may recall that I ventured out on Black Friday last year. I was in Minnesota, and things were pretty tame; nothing as wild as I anticipated. This year, though, I’m in Oregon, and all signs point to there being high levels of ...

Gingerbread Liege Waffles

Monday, November 12, 2012

* Before I say anything, I feel duty bound to tell you: these waffles were in the top three biggest hits list with my entire family. Huge deal here, people. I thought you’d want to know. * When we lived in Vermont, there was some really fun places to ski. The mountains are smaller, but ...

No-Rise Banana Nut Sticky Buns

Friday, November 9, 2012

I swear, it’s like my family doesn’t even appreciate how much I love them. I take the time to think about them, to remember their needs, to get them the things they like, and how do they repay me? They let bananas rot on the counter instead of eating them. It’s not just bananas, though. ...

Harry Potter: Pumpkin Cheesecake Pasties

Monday, September 24, 2012

Did you guys know that it was Hermione’s birthday last week? September 19th, to be exact. Technically, she turned 33 years old this year. You may recall that I have established that, had my letter not been lost, the Trio would have been the Quatro. Whatevs. Last week, on the morning of Miss Granger’s birthday, ...

Caramel Apple Bread

Friday, September 7, 2012

I’ve decide to embrace the cooler autumn weather we’ve started having. I’m sad that, with all the moving and such, I haven’t enjoyed much of a summer, but I adore the autumn, so there’s nothing to complain about. It’s all cool weather, the smell of warm fires in the air, crisp leaves crunching underfoot, cozy ...

Baby Brown Sugar Butterscotch Scones

Friday, July 20, 2012

Ever since the Hubster started back to work a couple of weeks ago, he’s been using my car. This has led to me becoming all European and walking everywhere, which I’m totally loving. I feel so French, walking home from a little market with my fresh produce and flowers. Next time, I’m buying a baguette, ...
