orange-buttermilk cake doughnuts + chocolate-orange glaze

whole wheat chapati {giveaway}

Holy snowfall, Batman! That’s right, we had our first snow here today (well, more like a rain/snow snot — yes, snot — but snow was involved). We also had the most insane wind gusts ...

buffalo wing beer bread + creamy ranch dip

It’s been a long month. I feel like I say that a lot. Or maybe, I’ve just been saying it a lot to myself these past few weeks. The truth is, I’m amazed I came out of October without...

cardamom-cherry jam quick bread

I can’t tell you the next time it will rain. I can’t tell you if the way you see orange is the same way I see orange, and I can’t tell you if you’ll get a pony for Christmas. ...

rutabaga fries

Perhaps these aren’t the prettiest things. Perhaps they look a little bit bland, or boring, or like they were covered in rocks. Fortunately, none of these are true. But this is most definitely ...

cinnamon raisin swirl bread

I’m trying to get back into the swing of things. Life is slowly getting back to normal — well, a new normal, that is. Grief is a funny thing, because even if you’ve been through it ...
