A guide to making life a little more fabulous
So, I think y’all know that I’m semi-obsessed with this fruit salad with mint sugar.
Do you like Creamsicles? Dreamsicles? Orange-cream slushes at Sonic? Anything with orange and cream together? I love them all.
Delicious white cake bursting with rainbow sprinkles and covered in coconut buttercream -- the perfect cake for a birthday party!
Rainbow sprinkles and coconut were perfect for my birthday, but for Toby’s birthday? I obviously needed something spiked with bourbon.
Biscuits can seem tricky, if you’ve never made them before.
Many years ago — when I was young and single — I used to spend whole weekends reading.
We’re more than halfway through October and it’s starting to feel a little more like fall… and that means it’s decorative gourd season (don’t click that link if the F-word bothers you) and it’s time for some pumpkin recipes up in here.
Happy Halloween, y’all! Are you dressing up this year? Toby and I are at the airport, on our way to Kentucky for homecoming festivities at his alma mater, Centre College, so I am not wearing a full-on costume, but I am wearing some leopard-print items.
In honor of the Marine Corps' birthday, I baked and decorated some camouflage cookies! The pattern looks like a cross between traditional and digital camo.
Are you on the pumpkin train? Have you been ordering pumpkin spice lattes like it’s your job? Or are you, like me, a bigger fan of pumpkin foods that actually contain pumpkin, like pumpkin pie, pumpkin snickerdoodles and pumpkin pancakes? Either way,.
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Yes, I love pie and sweet potatoes and Fair Isle sweaters and reindeer… but what I REALLY love about this time of the year is cranberries.
Pie is a must-have for Thanksgiving, but you don’t necessarily have to stick with pumpkin, pecan or apple… or limit yourself to one.
“Sticky toffee pudding” is a bit of a confusing name for Americans (like me).
You’ve got your turkey, you’ve got your mashed potatoes, you’ve got your sweet potatoes and the pie… but what are you going to drink for Thanksgiving? Sure, you could stick with wine, champagne or beer.
Thanksgiving is full of browns and oranges, with the occasional pop of red.
While I would have been perfectly happy with a bunch of cinnamon rolls for breakfast, I thought it might be nice to have some options, including fruit.
You can have your raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens.
