Indian Spiced Pear Honey Sorbet
I had a busy weekend. Do you ever have those weekends where you’re glad to see Monday come? Nah, me either. I’m never glad to see Monday come. :) My birthday is tomorrow. I will turn 31. This year I am feeling much better about getting older than when I stared 30 in the face […]
Strawberry-Pear Salad with Creamy Mustard and Fennel Pollen Dressing
I’m ready for Spring. Anyone with me? The past week has been a foggy blur of fevers and coughing so hard I wet my pants too many times to count. It snowed and was downright dreary. I spent the days trying to sneak a nap in where I could. Then my husband picked up some […]
Cream of Fennel and Zucchini Soup with Fennel Pollen
Fennel became one of my favorite vegetables a few years ago. We like to buy a bulb or two every so often as a special treat. It’s not always easy to find at the grocery stores here in Utah like it was when we lived in New York. Sadly, all the fennel I planted drowned […]
Lemon Ginger Cupcakes with Honey Cream Cheese Frosting
My oldest daughter has been begging me for weeks and weeks to make sugar cookies or cupcakes for her so she could decorate them. There are times as a parent, specifically as a mother, when you have to ask yourself: Just how much colored sugar am I willing to clean up today? And the answer […]
Matsumoto Shave Ice.
For my whole life I’ve wanted to go to Hawaii. It was such a lucky trip thanks to generous people in my husband’s family. We needed a little break from our woes for a few days. (Still no job. Boo.) When I e-mailed Damaris and Hannah about places to eat while we were in Oahu, […]
Creamy Roasted Red Pepper Pasta
Remember when I made a batch of Cashew Sour Cream from The Vegan Table? It made a lot of sour cream and for days I was dreaming of ways to use it. One day I looked in my fridge and did some quick math. Baby arugula + red peppers + cashew sour cream + x + […]
Cashew Sour Cream.
Have you ever heard of cashew sour cream? I have to confess that I love cashews before I go on. It would be unfair to not get that out in the open. I’m already biased, you see. Nuts are my best friend. They make me feel so much better about giving up dairy. I feel […]
Orange-Almond Cake with Grand Marnier Buttercream
Hello again, dear friends. I’m so happy to be back and I thank all of you for your kind comments and e-mails welcoming me back. Thanksgiving Day happened to be Aunt Khalie’s birthday. I simply had to make her a cake to go along with all that pie on the menu. I went with Dorie […]
Creamy Peach Tart
I’m looking forward to August and when the heavenly local peaches magically appear by the bushel in roadside stands. I can taste and smell them if I close my eyes. Until then, I will settle for the early peaches that are available now. There’s always been something enigmatic about peaches. When I was a little […]
Blood Orange Cupcakes with Faux Buttercream Icing
I finally figured out what to do with my two blood oranges! Why not make cupcakes? I sort of threw this recipe together from a couple of recipes I like to use. The cupcakes are super moist. You can use your favorite cupcake recipe and just add some zest. I’ll be honest, the cupcakes turned […]
