Earlier this week I shared this recipe for Spiced Yogurt Molasses Bread that I made for a Game of Thrones watch party. It turned out beautifully. But before I knew that, I was worried it was going to be, well, shitty. And when you're worried about shitty...
About this time last year, Steve and I had our first bonding moment. It was completely unromantic - in a group email for a newly-formed sand volleyball team. Steve was the odd man out - the only team member that was not an employee at...
I made these cookies this weekend for my Steve. My darling, lactose intolerant Steve. Because sometimes I feel bad that my, erm, lifestyle forces him to pop Lactaid like they're Skittles. And since he's sweet enough to be my taste-tester, even at the threat of gastrointestinal...
I had a bad blog day, and it's got me down. I've got hurt feelings. It doesn't happen very often, but once in a while I get a negative comment on one of my recipes. Most often it's because I've failed to proofread a recipe and...

Confession. I'm terrified of working with yeast. I'll take on the tallest of layer cakes and the most delicate of cookies, but when it comes to yeast, something inside me shrinks away. It's actually on my list of things to tackle in 2014, but with Fat...
I don't have much to say today. Which is not a promising way to start off a blog post, I know. But I'm completely exhausted. After an almost 12 hour day at work, then a 6 mile run, my brain is running on low. The thought...
