Yum I love brunch. I really do. I am in a book club with several of my friends, and we frequently schedule our meetings as a brunch….or rather, we use book club as an excuse to have carbs and mimosas. These blueberry rumchata muffins are the perfect item for a boozy brunch. Packed with juicy […]

Goat Cheese Prosciutto Bread Twist: an irresistible tribute to cheese, the ultimate cooking hack.
Yum This Goat Cheese Prosciutto Bread Twist is a delicious combination of some of my favorite flavors. Enriched brioche dough (butter), prosciutto, chopped walnuts, figs, and of course, the ultimate answer to making any meal delicious: CHEESE. Why are all of my favorite foods so high calorie? Not interested in this list of all of […]
Easy Apple Cinnamon Pretzels with Caramel Drizzle: Comforting flavors for an emotional week.
Yum It was a huge week for me. I directed my first live performances in over a year, I started to engage in my new role as the choir director in another district for next year, we had daily dress rehearsals after school involving two hundred people, and I ran out of coffee on Tuesday. […]
Easy Italian Babka: SMASH this simple twist loaded with prosciutto, cheese, and bruschetta!
Yum I love making bread. Really, is there anything more satisfying? Such simple ingredients that seem to come together like magic to make BREAD, that carbo-loaded highlight of any dinner out. You people out there doing paleo? More power to you, but that’s a hard no from me. I need bread, I really do. It’s […]
Easy Cinnamon Donuts! Soft on the inside, crispy on the outside, and full of flavor.
Yum My husband loves donuts. Except, he’s incredibly picky, so it is more accurate to say that he loves one very specific type of donut from a very particular tiny donut shop in a little bitty town, the glazed donuts from Titus Bakery in Lebanon. He doesn’t eat any other donuts. However, this weekend I […]
Chorizo Stuffed Bread! Jalapenos, Cheddar, and the Best Bread-Making Tool.
Yum This Chorizo Stuffed Bread was really good you guys. Like. Much better than I ever expected it to be, considering it is something I thought of while in the middle of a queso-induced food coma after scarfing tacos at Condado. It has layers of cilantro, parsley, and diced fresh jalapeno mixed right into the […]
Easy Jalapeno Bacon Pretzels with Homemade Beer Cheese: a treat for gameday. Or any day.
These pretzels are a crowd-pleaser and are sure to vanish quickly whether you are cooking for a crowd or just one bacon-crazed man-friend.
A tropical bread to fight the gloom. Pina Colada Couronne!
This pastry ring masquerades as a bread, giving you every excuse you need to both pretend that it is adequate food for a full meal, and to smear copious amounts of butter, jelly, or icing all over it.
It’s fall if I say so.
School is up and running full swing again, which means that I am basically ready for Halloween and the Holidays…. so this is a post about a bread that is great for fall. If that’s not your jam yet, visit this post in a month or so when you are craving something to dip in […]
I Have a New Cookbook. But I Really Needed It, I Swear.
Hey all. It’s been a hot minute. Life gets busy. BUT! Look at this awesome new cookbook my man-friend agreed to buy me as a shameless way to work around my vow to remain purchase-free. It is almost the end of the school year here in my world. I’m not going to lie to you. […]
