Ok, so here’s the deal. I live in Texas and summers here don’t mess around, which also happens to be the only season I have made these delicious cookies. While in normal or moderate temps I’m sure these cookies crisp up to the traditional lace texture, humidity here just isn’t concerned with my baking activity….

As we’ve been driving around the state on our mini mountain trips, I’ve noticed something. Every road sign in Colorado announcing you’ve entered a new town, displays not only the name of the town, but also proudly list the town’s elevation. Do other states do that? I have to admit I don’t know for sure. But, I’m guessing not….
*Note: If you Googled dairy free Brazilian Cheese Bread you came to the right place. There are notes in the recipe on how to adapt it for dairy free results! School is back. I absolutely can’t believe Aiden is a first grader now; and away at school for a full day! It’s so strange not having…
Ok, there is something that is really, really distressing me and I need to tell you guys about. Have you guys seen the clothes this year? So, at the bringing of the summer I found myself in need of some new summer tops (as I often will near the beginning of a new season). Logically, I decided I’d go…
Some love for my dairy free / gluten free peeps today! Yes, I totally just said peeps. But, seriously. I made some absolutely amazing decadent chocolate brownies for Valentine’s Day last week, and I couldn’t leave the people dealing with food allergies or intolerances out. As I mentioned a while back I have a lot of people…
Chicken is not my favorite food in the universe. I’m particular about the texture. I hate it when it turns out dry. I hate it when it’s bland. But… when chicken is done right, it’s amazing. Juicy, tender, flavorful. Yep. That’s my chicken requirement list. I’ve found that one of the best methods to achieve…
A little while back we had dinner with Kyra and Matt (of wedding catering project fame). I was cooking for everyone, and as I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, Matt is a vegetarian. I’ve gotten better at coming up with vegetarian main dishes, but always worry Matt will get stuck with a dish he doesn’t like, or no…
As I mentioned Monday, like many, I am working on eating healthier. It’s not a New Year’s resolution per-say, I’ve been trying to head this direction even before Christmas, you might recall me talking about eating better in conjunction with my goal of coming up with more healthy vegetable recipes. More recently however, I’ve been…
You guys, if you’ll indulge me, I’m going to complain for a moment about something that is horrifying me: I just watched an ad for a bluetooth enabled stuffed animal. Yes, SERIOUSLY! Bluetooth puppies, bears, and bunnies. How ridiculous is this? I love technology as much as the next girl, in fact, probably more then…
A while back I was at my in-laws and they pulled out a jar of moonshine soaked cherries for me to taste. They had purchased them somewhere or another on one of their rides. Maybe on the way to or from Sturgis? I don’t really remember. Boozy maraschino cherries, kind of a brilliant idea! Unfortunately,…
I’ve been reading a lot lately, in one form or another, about finding balance in life. I’ve avidly made my way through, Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less, The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up: The Japanese Art of Decluttering and Organizing, The Joy of Less, A Minimalist Living Guide: How to Declutter, Organize, and Simplify Your…
You guys, I’m currently on a sugar detox and it’s totally making me completely bananas. Ok first a little aside, because I should give a little back story to that statement… I’m not on a “real detox” plan per say. It’s just that I have decide to give up sugar for a week. Actually, to…
