It’s soup season! My life is a little different these days so I don’t necessarily need “travel friendly” meals like soup as much – but it is just so hard to fight the urge to make soup. When people say they don’t like cooking for just one person, I feel like they haven’t tried soup…
At some point before Thanksgiving I discovered the “Great British Baking Show” on Netflix… and since then I haven’t really looked back. I like it so much that I won’t watch it as I’m falling asleep because I need to pay attention to who is star baker and who doesn’t quite measure up each week. …
I haven’t been cooking nearly as much in recent months so when I saw my friend Becca was coordinating a cookie swap…. I signed up fast. I needed a push to experiment… and what better than to try and impress strangers via the mail. This recipe is a combination of two forces. One? I did…
It has been quite a while since my last batch of scones. I just haven’t really been cooking much this summer – and I normally make scones when I’m having people over for breakfast. My traditional scone recipe is rather intensive. It yields incredible results – but you are at it for a while. Lots…

The weather today screamed for soup – and so I made ramen. Saturday was a completely gorgeous day. I checked out two trails, had a turkey sandwich picnic, and cleaned out the garden. Home run of a day. But today I woke up to gross sleet hitting the windows followed by copious amounts of rain. …
I was headed to the grocery store this weekend rather casually and figured I should grab something for dinner. In an effort to prevent a lot of aisle wandering and salty snack purchases, I grabbed a sticky note to make a list. And in that minute I dreamed up this recipe for a seared fish…
I will always be a meat lover – but I do enjoy the challenge of crafting good meals without any meat. And meatballs have always been one of my favorite meals. There is something so incredibly comforting about meatballs for dinner. They used to be one of my favorite “after work, when I lived in…
