These are really easy, you guys. So easy I feel a little guilty sharing them here. But please, try them. They are perfect for Valentine’s Day, and are the perfect sweet treat to help keep you warm during the polar vortex.

Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Sweetheart Cake.
Yum This weekend, I was looking for a PROJECT. Something big that would let me make a huge mess in the kitchen, distract me from the laundry I was supposed to be doing, and involve my favorite activity: slowing walking down every single aisle at the grocery store and impulse-buying everything in the baking section.

Disconnecting Self-Worth From Professional Success… Why is This So Hard?
I am a choir director working in a mid-sized high school on the outskirts of Indianapolis, and if you know anything about the Indy high school music scene, you know that means one thing: SHOW CHOIR. As a choir enthusiast with an extensive dance background, an over-active ambition mindset, and a lover of sforzandos and […]
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.
Peanut Butter Cheesecake Brownies and the numbness of Quarantine
Warning: this recipe is really rich. Every time my man-friend watched the video when helping me edit he would remark “that’s…. a lot of sugar,” while watching my hands dump in a ridiculous amount of that delicious and cavity-creating substance.
You win some, you lose some.
For some reason, the top two layers of my cake decided to take a dive into the bottom of the fridge. I am unsure as to the reason for this architectural failure, although I suspect that the culprit is, as usual, my own impatience. The sponges probably weren’t cool enough.
Focaccia Rectangle/Blob. And an egg casserole that I made up based on what is in my fridge.
Today is Saturday, hallelujah. This was a great week at school but also a looooong one, so I have really been looking forward to some downtime. I started my day by delivering donuts to some awesome volunteers for the DCHS Show Choirs that were working on the set, which meant that I got to go […]
It’s ok to be too busy for a layer cake.
Yassss look at that fudgey goodness. I know what you’re thinking. That doesn’t look like something I would normally blog about. It isn’t layered. It doesn’t require a bazillion techniques and dirty dishes. It isn’t even very cute. Normally I would be way too competitive with myself to post about this super humble chocolate cake, […]
Misshapen But Delicious: Paul Hollywood’s Pecan Loaf
I always enjoy returning to what is, realistically, my favorite and most-used cookbook, Paul Hollywood’s “How to Bake.” The pecan loaf pictured above was made from that book, and I’ll get to that particular comedy of errors that somehow miraculously yielded something yummy in a bit. Matt and I are slowly approaching our wedding, which […]
