I’ve held off for as long as I could. Pumpkin-everything is coming, and it’s coming in hot; so go ahead and yield to it. I, personally, have been on a slow cooker kick lately. Since the use of my stove or oven heats this apartment up to ungodly temperatures, I’m forgoing their use as much…

Make Ahead Western Omelet Baked Potatoes
Today is my 20th wedding anniversary. Guess what I’m doing? I’m recipe-testing and trying to discourage my 14 year-old daughter from changing her writing style from Laura Ingalls Wilder to E.A. Poe. American Literature has somehow caused her to want to make a change to the macabre. Yep! Life only gets more glamourous the older…
Mango Lassi with Rosewater and Cardamom
Do you need a break from the world (I’m looking at you “the Media”) right now?!? ‘Cause I sure as heck do.

Oatmeal-Carrot Cake Muffins with (or without) Nuts
Update on the moving: putting a house on the market is a p.i.t.a. Seriously. Normally, I keep a very neat and orderly home, but when you’re trying to sell your house, it has to be neat and orderly on 100. Meanwhile, I’m trying to use up all of the food in my pantry so I…
Chorizo and Egg Breakfast Nachos
I sat in a corner looking around to see if anyone was judging me. Having just finished a full plate of these Chorizo and Egg Breakfast Nachos, I was feeling a wee-bit scandalous. These things are on the verge of being slutty- they’re so indulgent. I think what IÂ wanted to feel was guilt, but that…
Churros with Dessert Dipping Sauces
This post is sponsored by Danish Creamery, but all opinions are my own. Cinco de Mayo is a pretty festive time food-wise…at least for me. No, I’m not Mexican, but who doesn’t love Mexican food? And who says you have to be Mexican to appreciate the simplicity of churros? No one sane, that’s for sure….
Concha Bread Pudding Breakfast Bake
Cinco de Mayo and Mother’s Day are fast approaching, so I’ve developed a recipe that fits both bills! This Concha Bread Pudding Breakfast Bake is a perfect blend of sweet pastry and quick assembly. Basically, it’s everything mom wishes she could have on a regular basis. If you’re in charge of preparing mom’s morning meal this…
Guava-Banana Oatmeal Breakfast Smoothie
Blueberry Lemon Scones with Lemon Glaze
Scones are like biscuits that have an English accent and sip tea with its pinky extended. They’re subtly humble, while being bougie at the same time. Naturally, I love them because they remind me a lot of myself. These particular Blueberry Lemon Scones- with their zingy Lemon Glazed tops- are going to make you pine…
