This is weird, guys. I don’t normally make a recipe over and over and over without sharing it with you, but that’s exactly what has happened with these sandwich buns. I’ve made these four or five times now — loving them each and every time — and I realized the last time I made them … Continue reading
I decided to make this bread as a yummy weekend baking project (and, spoiler alert, it was outstanding). While I was in the kitchen putting everything together, I kept hearing my husband chuckling to himself on the couch. What was so funny!? I demanded to know from the kitchen. Well, it was this. Do you … Continue reading
Is Thanksgiving breakfast a thing? No, right? You eat the smallest breakfast possible so you have maximum stomach room later in the day, right? Well, shoot. So, if Thanksgiving breakfast were a thing, this would be what you would make for it. This is like…stupid good. Ever since I got my Kitchenaid stand mixer, I’ve … Continue reading
I’ve gotten lots of good feedback lately on my little bloggy-blog, and the consensus seems to be clear: too many recipes that take way too long, have too many steps, and too many ingredients. Listen. I hear you. If I were the kind of person who hated cooking and wanted to spend as little time … Continue reading

Part of that is because we’re supposedly consuming 350 more calories per … Continue reading
When my husband and I were planning our wedding, I got disproportionately stressed out about the whole bridal registry thing. I tried very hard to register only for things that I thought we’d actually use — we asked for plain dinner plates instead of china, I skipped registering for a blender even though my current … Continue reading
I’m only slowly becoming a decent cook, but I’m not a baker at all. I think cooking and baking are left-brain, right-brain things. Baking is for mathy-sciencey people, for people who can handle precision and attention to detail, for people who like following rules (you know, for NERDS!). Cooking is for us creative types, us … Continue reading
I think I’ve made pretty clear on this blog that I loooooove carbs. Carbs on carbs on carbs. I’m a carb monster. Us carb-monsters can usually be subdivided into smaller, carb-loving groups — some are pasta people; some are potato lovers. My mom, for example, is a pasta and potato lover, attacking mac-and-cheese, spaghetti, wavy … Continue reading
The first time I ever had an Italian beef sandwich was when I was visiting my husband’s family for one of the first times. When I heard what we were having, I was a little apprehensive because I’m not a big red-meat eater, but I should have known better — like everything my now-mother-in-law makes, … Continue reading
