I don’t know how it happens, but I seem to always be busy. Every week I think that “next week will be the week where things slow down.” And, one of these weeks, that’s going to be true. I’m sure of it! However, this is not the week! After a week in Cape Cod and…

Garlic Scape Pesto
I am a firm believer in the fact that food can be trendy. When I say that in the presence of my non-foodie friends, they give me a funny look… But, how else can you explain the recent surge of interested in the formerly-hated, slipped under the table to the dog vegetable, Brussels sprouts? I…
Graduation Cookie Cake
You may have noticed that I’ve been a bit distant in the past week… You’re not just imagining it! I have neglected to update my Project 365 photos on Flickr, I haven’t been posting as much, and I haven’t been keeping up with everyone’s tweets! I do have a good reason, though… I was working…
Friday Favorites – Cape Cod Edition
Last week, my husband and I started off the summer with a trip to Cape Cod to celebrate our 5 year wedding anniversary. It was great to relax and spend time with Yellowdog (our yellow lab and my sous chef) splashing on the beaches and exploring the Cape. This week, instead of my usual links…
Basil Cupcakes from Mele Cotte
This summer, I thought it would be fun to mix things up a bit. Summer is a great time for traveling, spending time with friends, and enjoying great food, so I thought I would bring a little bit of that here to the blog. Throughout the summer I will be giving you the opportunity to travel with…
Fresh Cherry Tomato Salsa
During the summer, I love to make fresh salsa. We don’t have fresh tomatoes from our garden yet, and we’ve only had a few tomatoes from the CSA. So, I picked up a pint of organic cherry tomatoes at the store to make some salsa. I’ve never made salsa with cherry tomatoes before, but it…
Homemade Sandwich Bread Video (Kitchen Bootcamp)
I had hoped to post this video last week, but I chose relaxation over video editing. Even though this is my third video, it still takes me quite a while to edit and prepare the videos before I get them up here on the blog. So, since we were on vacation in Cape Cod last…
Friday Favorites – Episode 57
It’s Friday again, which means it’s time for my Friday Favorites! I’m doing my best to get back to posting a weekly favorites post (despite a busy summer schedule), so I’m making a special effort to write this week’s post a bit early. We’ve had a busy week of relaxing (isn’t that always how it…
POM Yogurt Pops
You know that I love to cook and bake… And I’m not usually intimidated by recipes that might be considered “complicated.” There’s something about hot weather that just makes me lose my steam in the kitchen, though. I’m not a hot weather fan, and when it’s hot out, I find myself gravitating towards easy and…
Amazing Chocolate Chip Cookies
Have you checked out the cookbook section at your local library? I’d highly recommend it. I love looking at cookbooks, but I really don’t have the budget to buy every cookbook that I look at and I definitely don’t have the space to store them all in my house! So, to feed my cookbook addiction,…
