The other day, we had something really special to celebrate with my youngest. It was something super important to her and she asked for a little ‘family celebration’. I wanted to make it feel extra special to her, so I made some cupcakes with her favorite chocolate frosting. A rich, creamy, deeply chocolately frosting. The […]
Hello, friends! I’ve been quiet on here the past month as I’ve been taking a break after the holidays. I’ve been making some of my tried-and-true recipes and have finally decided to get a bit creative again! We’ve had so many soups on rotation so I was ready to have something a bit hardier. Now, […]
My cold-weather cooking continues with another soup – this time, a deliciously creamy broccoli cheddar soup! I love to make a warm soup this time of year. Even though it’s not always cold in Florida come November, we have our cloudy, rainy and slightly cooler days. That’s when I love to make one of these […]
*Updated October 31, 2023. It’s snowing out West and up North today and we’re having hurricane like storms down in the southeast east. So wherever you are, it’s a good day to stay in (especially since Corona is still in full force #stayhome #staysafe). So, I decided to make a yummy soup with some of […]
It’s Fall, ya’ll! October is here and so are the warm comfort foods. Soups and stews, breads and casseroles and all the delicious desserts. It’s truly my favorite season! I’m kicking off this month with a yummy lentil soup! Lentils are often confused with beans, but they’re actually a legume. They are one of the […]
It’s Rosh Hashanah time, the Jewish New Year, where we eat a lot of sweet foods to bring on the sweet new year. Apples and honey are a big celebratory food, along with some other tasty dishes (these are some of my favorites!). One food we should eat for Rosh Hashanah that I learned about […]
Ever get a craving for a chocolatey, decadent dessert but don’t know what to make? This. This is the recipe you should make! It’s like brownies, but a bit better in my humble opinion. It’s warm. It has its own sauce, and it’s light and fluffy. In England and Australia, this would be a warm […]
It’s summer break and while we’ve been traveling and the girls have been in and out of camp, we have also been relaxing a ton in between. My way of relaxing is baking and it seems the girls have picked up on that as well. It can be anything from sweet to savory but this […]
Yesterday, I went to the farmers market and picked up some super yummy yellow gold small, round potatoes. These have a very thin skin and a buttery taste. They taste absolutely AMAZING roasted, so I knew that’s what I wanted to do with them tonight. But, for a slight twist, I decided to smash them […]
Happy Valentine’s Day! How was your day? Was it filled with candy and flowers? Friends and drinks? Curled up with a good book under a blanket? However you spent your day, I hope you felt loved. My day was filled with surprises for my girls. In our family, our love language is food, so we […]
