When I say that I’ve been excited to post this, I’m not kidding. I really have been. Crazy excited. And I know, it’s not quite warm enough yet to imagine yourself lying on a beach sipping a...
Don’t you love when you’re reading an old book & the author wrote it as ‘sirop’? It’s so old timey or foreign. I know sirop is the French way of spelling syrup, but it seems that a lot of books...
There are certain unalienable rights that i believe we have as humans- from the time we’re born until the moment our heart beats for the last time. You may know some of these from the Declaration...
This whole thing started when I encountered this recipe on Pinterest (you might laugh and say “I COULDA TOLD YOU IT WOULDN’T WORK” but I’ve had nothing but great experiences with both recipes and...
Want to know something sad? I can’t eat ice cream. I know. It’s very sad. I shouldn’t say all ice cream, because some of them are okay- especially homemade or high quality ones. But most ice cream...
There are a couple of things I’ve learned over the past few years that I honestly never would have thought of nor realized if it weren’t for this wonderful thing we call the internet. They aren’t...
Whoa! Today is the last day of April! Holy balls. Where the hell has the time gone? I really don’t know, because I swear on a Weck canning jar it seems as though only last week I was making pumpkin...
Most likely as you read that title, you thought to yourself, “Oh boo hoo. Rough life, baking/cooking & blogging about it. Cry me a river.” I wouldn’t be angry with you if you did, it’s a valid...
The Pickle Sisters, c. 1920′s, image courtesy of Retronaut A safe assumption here would be that you’re a new reader who doesn’t remember the previous version of these I created. That would be not...
Really, I’m not sure if there’s a more literal interpretation of “coffee cake” than this one… except for maybe a cake made with coffee. Seriously. You see a lot of coffee cakes, and they’re all...
Sometimes you just want a really quick dessert that isn’t chocolate. Or maybe you don’t, but other people might. Some people are fruit people. I know a lot of folks that, when given the option,...
You got it. It’s that time again. Time for a list of things that are giving me life right now. And you know, sometimes it’s really hard to find 15 awesome things. Mainly because there’s so much...
The weather here is finally getting warmer. FINALLY. Last year at this time, it was already warm. As a matter of fact, my herbs began growing in March of last year when we had a streak of 70°...
The busy-ness & craziness of my life never ends. I barely had time to post any recipes this week. Which sucks, I know. But week 22 of our awesome blog hop is here! I’m especially psyched this week...
Happy April! I hope you all had a lovely holiday this past week, regardless of which one you celebrated. Or at the very least, I hope you had just an all-around pleasant week/weekend. I’m exhausted...
Just in case you aren’t aware, I’ve been busy lately. Really busy. And on top of that? I got wicked sick last week and I was in bed for about 6 days with something way worse than your average cold...
Whoa. Week 21. Crazy! Time flies when you’re having fun & meeting awesome bloggers. Original photo & poster credited to MEANDTHIS. THE HOSTS: Cupcake Rehab Raised By Culture 3twentysix From the...
“It is spring again. The earth is like a child that knows poems by heart.” ― Rainer Maria Rilke Spring is (obviously) when the earth begins it’s life cycle again. Plants start growing & flowering,...
Whew. Could the holidays rush me any more than they are? I mean, there was over a month between Valentine’s Day & St. Patrick’s Day, but now both Easter & Passover are like, five minutes away....
Whew. Things are absolutely crazy around here. I mean crazy busy. INSANE. I feel like I have no time to sit down, at all. I barely have time to figure out what to make for dinner, or to come up...
The Irish (and English, for that matter) love their pies. And I don’t mean fruit pies, I mean meat pies. Hot, cold, warm or room temperature, they love them some meat pies. It’s a famous pub dish;...
Coming from a family environment where my main grandparental influence came from my maternal grandparents, I’m pretty well versed in all things Irish (and German- but that’s another post). My...
Something I always loved was the way layered, multi-colored cupcakes look. I thought I’d give them a shot a while back (I think when New York passed the gay marriage bill thingy) and never did. I...
Nothing I am about to show you today is traditionally Irish. Nothing. Actually… I’m lying. The Guinness is. Other than that, it’s a conglomeration of the Americanization of Irish culture; throw...
Can you seriously get over the fact that today is March 1st? I really don’t believe it. It’s impossible. Just yesterday it was October 1st, and I was baking with pumpkin, and it really seems like...
Come one, come all, to week 17 of Think Outside the Blog! Original photo & poster credited to MEANDTHIS. THE HOSTS: Cupcake Rehab Raised By Culture 3twentysix From the Kitchen of Mama Harris The...
Preserved lemons are probably as old as lemons & salt themselves. The version I’m giving you is the most popular on the internet these days: Moroccan preserved lemons. But there are other versions...
It’s kinda hard to believe it’s week 16 of our blog hop. Well, for me anyway. Time is seriously flying and it’s scary! I swear, it really does seem like just yesterday we started this, but it was...
Well since Valentine’s Day is over, and we’ve got some time before the all the green starts (although if you go by Pinterest/blogs it’s already starting), that means some time to bake things that...
Now that Valentine’s Day is over & there’s one whole month until you’ll be ingesting green beer, feel free to get sick. No seriously. After reading this post, you just might not mind it so much....
