Friday Favorites – Episode 114

FridayFavorites_new.jpg

Thanksgiving is now less than one week away! Oh my! Despite the fact that I’ve been thinking about food for Thanksgiving for a few weeks now, it seems that I haven’t really made many decisions regarding what I’m actually making. Fortunately, I did remember to order a turkey ahead of time, so I’ve got that much covered. But,…

Kitchen Bootcamp Roundup – Custards, Creams, and Mousses

This month was one of my favorite challenges since I started Kitchen Bootcamp last April (can you believe it’s been over a year now?)…  We all know that I am a big fan of desserts (especially ice cream), so I had great hopes for this challenge. While I didn’t have nearly as much time as…

Coconut Cream Cheese Cookies

I ambitiously bought a large bag of coconut the week before Easter.  I had great plans to make Easter candy with it, but that never happened. Instead, I decided to throw together some cookies at the last minute.  I didn’t really have a good recipe, so I just made it up as I went.  I…

Friday Favorites – Episode 86

Another week has come and gone!  It’s hard to believe it. After enjoying the gorgeous weather last weekend while I was in New York City for a few days, it has gotten cold and rainy again… In fact, we are supposed to have lows in the 20s overnight and I’ve seen some flurries. That’s not really my…

Coconut Banana Bread

It seems that no matter how often I make banana bread, we always seem to have a few brown bananas hanging out on the kitchen counter. Sometimes I put them in the freezer for later, but then I end up with a giant collection of frozen black bananas in my freezer. Don’t get me wrong, I…

Friday Favorites – Episode 82

I don’t really have a long elaborate story to tell this week… It’s been a fairly ordinary week. I’ve been cooking, baking, writing, and taking photos. It’s been nice, but also uneventful. So, instead of dragging things out any further, I’ll just tell you about my favorite blog posts from the past week! I love doughnuts, but…

Friday Favorites – Episode 68

It’s Friday again, and fall is officially here. We’ve had a rather cool and dreary week this week, and I’m really not complaining.  It’s been nice to pull out the sweaters, do some fall baking, and drink hot cider in the evenings!  So, as you might have expected, a lot of this week’s favorites have a…

Kitchen Bootcamp Roundup – Vegetables

It’s that time again… Time for this month’s Kitchen Bootcamp roundup! This post is a few days later than I had planned due to my trip to Seattle for IFBC.  While I had the greatest intentions of being able to post the roundup right after my return, I decided to post a few thoughts on…

Friday Favorites – Episode 60

Before I get into my favorite posts of the week, I wanted to give one last friendly reminder about the Kitchen Bootcamp challenge for July… Today is the last day to submit your salads and dressings.  I will be posting the roundup tomorrow! Now that my little reminder is out of the way, let’s talk…
