Jump to recipe It's been a long time. Needless to say, life happened. We had another baby, we moved, we moved again. It's easy to lose track of things that once made you really when you have a lot of new things that make you really happy and really tired (see: the literal definition of … Continue reading Thank You Scones

Orange Blossom Brioche Pull Apart Rolls
I'm in a bread phase. I'm enjoying making and baking bread, which is a new thing for me. I usually shy away from the yeast - rest and proof - beat back - second proof - roll into something - and finally bake. It just...seems like a lot. And it is, but boy, fresh bread...it … Continue reading Orange Blossom Brioche Pull Apart Rolls
Under 45 minutes: Shakshuka-inspired Brunch
Brunch is fun...it's even funner if you can make it under 45 minutes. Seriously -- when you have people over, it's key to make sure you're not in the kitchen the whole time. It's part of why I love this recipe, and my easy vanilla-almond baked french toast: fast, delicious, and you won't have to … Continue reading Under 45 minutes: Shakshuka-inspired Brunch
Brunch Time! Easy Vanilla-Almond Baked French Toast
It's been a struggle to sit still recently and just enjoy the moment. Most doctors tell me, "Enjoy medical school, you'll never get the time off that you do then!" but then I everywhere I turn, friends are publishing papers and going to conferences, getting involved with all kinds of research, and I'm...petting my new … Continue reading Brunch Time! Easy Vanilla-Almond Baked French Toast
Peach Toast
It's been a while, I know. Things have been hectic over here. We are getting ready to move, so we're selling ALL of our furniture (moving to Texas? Need some furniture? I'm selling it all for $250), making plans for our 3 week stay in Paris (!!!), contacting real estate agents in Boston to search … Continue reading Peach Toast
Green Eggs
Let me tell you about my allergies. I have never really had them before. In Arizona, allergies aren't crazy because it's too hot, and in Boston...well, I don't know why I didn't have bad allergies in Boston. But good heavens, in San Antonio...it's a whole new world! I didn't have allergies last year, but then … Continue reading Green Eggs
Coconut Cherry Millet Muffins
Most of what I post is pretty healthy. Well, in small portions at least. But this takes the cake, or the muffin I guess, for being most healthy. Millet Muffins. Before you turn away grossed out, I will tell you have made and finished these more times than I can count. More impressively, my husband, … Continue reading Coconut Cherry Millet Muffins
Raspberry Breakfast Bars
My perfect weekend usually involves a tasty dinner on Friday night. Saturday morning kind of early with coffee, a slow and tasty breakfast with the dog and the hubby, grocery shopping, reading a good book in a coffee shop, then walking the dog around our neighborhood. Lazy Sunday, more reading and coffee, some baking, some … Continue reading Raspberry Breakfast Bars
Nigh Kayaking and Pecan Pina Colada Oats
So for the past few weeks, Tyler has been going kayaking/boating with our friend Raleigh. He'd always come back desperately tired, but full of smiles and stories of how many times he rolled over in his boat in the water, or how he went down a rapid upside down...my thoughts were always...yes, fun. Upside down … Continue reading Nigh Kayaking and Pecan Pina Colada Oats
Garlicky Greens: Kale Edition
Kale is amazing. Seriously, I love it. Flash-cooked, sauteed, steamed. It's got an amazing crunchiness that makes it like candy to me. Kale is a part of the cabbage family, and is full of calcium, beta carotene, and other vitamins. Quite healthy, and very versatile. It makes an excellent side-dish. Anyways, this is my favorite … Continue reading Garlicky Greens: Kale Edition
