I’m obviously head over heels in love with the chocolate orange combo. I mean, I’ve sconed, brioched, frozen, and now cookied again. Can’t stop won’t stop. These whimsical guys should totally be a part of your holiday baking. And their swirly chocolate outfit makes them the fun cookie. The cookie that never irons its outfit, but makes it seem so cool. Not to mention, these are soft, dreamy, love-worthy cookies. Trust me, ok? Please note: this…
This brioche is delicious, but in the process of making it my mixer broke! Currently, my beloved Kitchenaide is sitting in pieces in the spare room, on the desk I never sit at, while I wait for parts to arrive in the mail. I’m crossing my fingers that it’ll be up in running in 3-5 business days. It all started when I used the paddle attachment for this here buttery yeast dough. T’was too much!…
These shortcakes have me thinking all kinds of things. Like, I definitely need to have a shortcake party. And that there’s a chance I could be open to love with greek yogurt. And where has this deer plate been all my life? I really love it, even though everyone knows bucks are deadbeat dads. Not cool, bucks. Not cool, at all. Now the beginning of Bambie is even sadder, ya know? Jeez. But let’s refocus.…
I ate one of these cookies before dinner yesterday. It was a cookie appetizer, and it was necessary. Then I made a salad for dinner, ate a truffle santa, and listened to Mariah Carey Fantasy the remix. Just an average night, really. But these cookies are the opposite of average. They are super lemony refreshing! One glance at their casual outfits, you wouldn’t suspect the tasty citrus flavor punch sandwiched in each bite. (Are you…
I’m not ready for December. You see, my Christmas spirit isn’t intact. My only decoration is this wreath. My only form of celebrating is brewing a cinnamon stick with my coffee. I tried to listen to the She & Him Christmas album and it made me feel weird. I had to switch to Tegan and Sara. Jeez, you guys! What’s a girl to do? I guess, I’ll just keep thinking it’s fall until February! I’m…
I don’t know what I’m doing, you guys. I occasionally walk into wherever to meet my friends and say, “What uuuuuup!” while doing the raise-the-roof hand motion. I get stressed about silly things. I’m awful at most paper crafts. (I cut things out all jagged-like.) I sometimes doubt the stuff I’m baking when it takes too long to set… But you know what? This ginger beer makes me feel like a super cool Hermione of…
Mushrooms are one of the cutest vegetables. They remind me of gnomes and fairy tails. So thanks, nature! Thanks for mushrooms, acorns, and mini pinecones. Nature’s just cute, you guys. So these cookies resemble a vegetable, but are just cookies. They’re late for the whole dressing-up-for-Halloween-thing. They taste like crumb-y good shortbread. I just might want to dunk them in jam like these guys. P.S. Mostly I ate two in a row, really quick, while these…
Let’s restart. Let’s toast to the new year now! I’m not going to lie. I keep thinking that I can’t wait for this year to end. Too many crazy things have happened that I no longer want to share a year with. But my friend mentioned that maybe I should start my new year now, ya’ know? Toast now! Instead of wishing the year away, take a fresh start immediately. So let’s put champagne in our…
Is it cold where you’re at? These cookies will warm you right up. They’re like that new coat you bought. You know, the one that goes swimmingly with your favorite coral pants. While the coat isn’t as warm as it is fashionable, these cookies are toasty and equally pretty. These would pair well with a cozy night in. Or a casual day when you need some cookies in your life. Call your neighbor and have…
I’ve been drinking pumpkin beer and eating sandwiches on pumpkin bread. I’ve been using pumpkin puree to get Elliot to eat his medicine. I’ve been pinning pumpkin-painting ideas. To say, I’m totally in love with pumpkin is an understatement. I just really hope you guys aren’t totally over it, because these crepes are super good. They’re worth breakfasting on, it’s the truth. These would be extra awesome with a maple cream cheese filling. I served…
