Roasted Fennel and Butternut Squash Soup
Oh, butternut squash soup. I could wax poetic about how much I love it and how happy I am each year to make batch after batch. This year I decided to try something a little different by combing the butternut with fennel and roasting it in the oven. It’s pretty amazing what a little roasting […]
Roasted Potatoes with Lemon and Capers
I went to New York for a week in September and when I came back, summer had all but disappeared and autumn was here. And now it’s been autumn for weeks and weeks and it’s actually already snowed here! We’re heading into the last few days of October and I’m wondering how my favorite month […]
Fig Brown Butter Frangipane Tart
So this Fig Brown Butter Frangipane Tart. It’s pretty much amazing. I fell head over heels for figs this year. I like them in salads. I like them made into jam and served with cheese…and with prosciutto. I like them in desserts. I just finally decided that I really, really like them. And now I’m […]
Peach Buttermilk Bread Pudding with Caramel Sauce
Peach Buttermilk Bread Pudding. Could there be a more perfect comfort food? I think not. It is nearly impossible to compete with my husband’s very favorite bread pudding, but this comes pretty close.

Strawberry, Fennel and Arugula Salad with Cacao Nibs
After I took the pictures, I pretty much ate the entire platter of this Strawberry, Fennel and Arugula Salad with Cacao Nibs by myself. And as much as I want to feel sorry about that, I kinda don’t. This is yet another in a series of many clean-out-the-fridge salads. I love those because they are […]

Before we talk about how glorious the flavors are in this Cashew Dulce de Leche French Macaron recipe, we need to talk about macarons. Why are they so difficult to make properly? Egg whites, ground nuts, sugar. Doesn’t seem like it should be so complicated, right? But they are. Read on, friends. I’ve made macarons quite a […]
Citrus, Avocado and Quinoa Salad with Cilantro-Lime Vinaigrette
Yes, it’s another quinoa salad. And you better believe I put avocado in it too. Can’t get enough avocados ever. Someday I will have an avocado tree in my yard. Oh, yes, that is going to happen. Avocados are in season right now and because we love them so much, we buy them four at […]
Easter Coconut Cake
Every year when Easter comes around, I am reminded of my grandmother and her colorful Easter Coconut Cake. There were two layers of light and fluffy white cake filled with fruit or cream and it was frosted with a basic white frosting. The topping was the most magical part – otherwise it would have been […]
Review of Liliha Bakery in Honolulu, Hawaii

Kraft Fresh Take Challenge 2: Butternut Squash Ravioli Lasagna with Leeks and Baby Portabello Mushrooms
Have you seen lasagna made with ravioli? I know it’s been around for a long time, but I only recently saw it and thought it was brilliant. As you know, I’ve been participating in a recipe challenge using Rosemary and Roasted Garlic Kraft Fresh Takes. I thought the Fresh Takes and frozen ravioli would the […]
