Could I have thought of any longer of a title? Maybe if I’d included the butter, eggs, and brown sugar? I was going to call them plain ol’ “Chocolate Chip Quinoa Cookies”, but given that the quinoa is a smaller portion and less of a texture contributor than the oats I couldn’t really leave out […]
First on the First: Dark Chocolate Soufflés
Confession: it’s First on the First time, when we try something new and scary in the kitchen, or something we’ve been putting off, or something we’ve just never done homemade, but this month’s challenge isn’t a first for me. Souffles are definitely the stuff of legend in my mind, but I’ve made these about half […]
Sarah’s Crescent Roll Buns
You know those people you read or hear about that you think you would kind of hate if you met in person? Those people who seem to do it all, and do it well, without a hair ever falling out of place? Those people who own two successful small businesses, work from home, have 3 […]
Saturday Sweets: PEANUT BUTTER CHOCOLATE CHIP SQUARES
So I have no idea what day it is, ever. One week into being at home and all semblance of routine seems oh so long ago. Now I’m understanding why my mom did laundry on Mondays and Thursdays, grocery shopping on Tuesdays, and housework on Fridays – she just needed something to mark which day […]
Perfect Apple Crisp
Can we all agree that apple crisp is the bomb? I could eat apple crisp every. single. day. And this week I did. It was wonderful. You know what else I did? Graham crumbs in the topping. I told you, I’m obsessed. This is going down in history as the best apple crisp ever made, […]

Saturday Sweets: Pumpkin Layer Cake
I’m losing it. Well, I may have already lost it, but I’m giving myself the benefit of the doubt. Besides, I can’t remember if I told you in a different post that I was losing it, or if it’s the first time. If it is the first time, then I can still get away saying […]
Pumpkin Graham Muffins
Lately I feel like I’m caught in a massive round of catch-up where you never quite get caught up. I’m holding on to the knowledge that by next Saturday I’ll be done the necessary papers I need to do for school and the articles I need to write for a magazine, finished with the welcome […]
Dark Chocolate Merlot Skillet Cookie / Brownies
When someone pointed out that my beloved skillet cookie, in both its original and peanut butter forms, had the equivalent ingredients to a whole BATCH of cookies, rather than think, “EW, you’re right, that’s excessive”, I thought “Oooh, you’re right, what OTHER cookie recipes could be baked in this wonderful way?!” What other cookies do […]
Homemade Multigrain Bagels
Oh Philosophy. Why do you have to be sooo… sooo… well… philosophical?? I am constantly reminded of how I felt in high school math: frustrated, uninterested, and counting the hours till it’s all over. Yes, I am real, yes God exists just because I believe it’s true, and yes, I realize I am difficult to […]
