So I haven’t had a real win in the kitchen lately, and things have been busy with starting class, so instead of a new post today I’m doing a throwback to an old favorite! It’s September (despite my protests at the passage of time!), which means it is now acceptable to bring on the pumpkin!Read more
I don’t know about you, but I love pumpkin flavored things all year. It’s a shame that pumpkin gets a brief over-the-top highlight for two months in the fall and then basically disappears. So I bring you this recipe in protest of keeping pumpkin locked away until October. And since it has all the deliciousnessRead more

This comes together in about 10 minutes, so it’sRead more
It’s that time of year for pumpkin everything! These poppers are like doughnut holes. A little dense and super moist they’re a delicious fall treat. I made these for church last Sunday. Not knowing how many the original recipe made I decided to quadruple the recipe (me and my inability to estimate quantities). I alsoRead more
Mom had a no good, very bad day yesterday, so I told her I’d treat her today. When I saw this scone recipe I knew it’d be a great way to start the day and make her feel taken care of. These scones are very subtly sweet, so if you’re into sweet baked goods forRead more
