Arugula Salad with Blackberries and Chevre with Blackberry-Thyme Vinaigrette
Yesterday for lunch, with the help of my daughter, I made this gorgeous Arugula Salad with Blackberries and Chevre with Blackberry-Thyme Vinaigrette. I get pretty excited about salad.

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 […]
Caramel Hazelnut Gelato {Labor Day Ice Cream Social}
My husband’s cousins had just left my house. We’d had a fabulous day of making ice cream and lunch, and sharing it together. I felt happy. I went to the freezer to pull out the caramel hazelnut gelato so I could have one more tiny little taste. As I licked the spoon and closed my eyes, […]
Peach Balsamic Vanilla Vinaigrette
Salad is my favorite food, I think. I eat salad almost every single day. I even wrote a salad guide on Make and Takes a few years ago. I like to think I’m somewhat of an expert, you see. Salads are one of the best ways to fit in all your leafy greens, and as […]
Have You Tried: Arugula
I really love arugula, so when my CSA share came with a bag of two different kinds, I was ecstatic. I planted some in my garden, but it’s still very tiny. I’ve been craving arugula all winter long. If you haven’t tried arugula, you’re in for a treat. It’s incredibly flavorful–kind of peppery, but distinct. […]

Pear, Chocolate, Hazelnut Tart (Gluten-Free)
A few weeks before Thanksgiving I gave up gluten again. I was really wondering if I could be strong enough to resist all of my favorite Thanksgiving fixin’s that weren’t GF. I made a plan so it would be easier to be good. I looked for recipes on my favorite GF blogs so that I […]
Sometimes I Bake Wedding Cakes.
In January, I made a wedding cake for these two lovely people. Meet Samantha and Chas Kelly. Even if I wasn’t related to them (by marriage) I would love and claim them as my own. (Sam is an amazing artist, by the way. She has an Etsy shop called Can You Hear Me? You should […]
Root Beer Cookies
A long, long time ago when I was a little girl, my mother’s good friend brought us a plate of Root Beer Cookies. Clearly it was a memorable day because since then I have personally made these cookies probably a hundred times. They are one of my family’s favorite cookies now that I have […]
Hazelnut-Toffee Cookies
These Hazelnut-Toffee Cookies are very good. Veeeerrrrry good. Soft and chewy. Studded with chocolate, crunchy hazelnuts, and buttery toffee. Just the best cookies EVER. For reals. I’m kind of at a loss as to what else to say about them… Ha! The base of the cookies is from my favorite Root Beer Cookies recipe. […]
