• raspberry pistachio bread

  

  How many times can you make a quick bread in a year? How many times can you make a quick bread in your life? What do you gain by making so many quick breads? How many quick breads have you made? Is it normal? What is considered an abnormal amount of quick breads that one…

• oatmeal pistachio cookies

  

  There are two other ingredients, aside from the pistachios themselves, that contribute greatly to the cookie in terms of making sure these cookies are pistachio-centric. One is pistachio flavor, which is often sold in small dram (3/4th teaspoon-sized) bottles and useful for making ice cream and baked goods. The other is pistachio oil. I purchased…

• pistachio cream cupcakes

  

  Greetings! Happy Spring! Happy St. Patrick’s Day! If you’ve been following me for a few years, this might look a little familiar. The only difference is that this time I’m making them look more like cupcakes, so I’m not calling them Moss Muffins, lol. But yeah, you could say I have a fondness for moss.…

• pistachio cranberry pretzels

  

  December is here! I wanted to make something that was only slightly sweet and with only small hints of the red and green colors of the upcoming holiday. Because that’s how I roll. I figured the next few weeks, we will see a bombardment of all things red and green. I tend to prefer the…

  Aaargghh! I got the flu bug. At least getting the flu shot back in October seems to have helped somewhat. I don’t seem to be having any gastrointestinal issues. Very grateful for that. But that’s why you’re seeing another post from me within the same month. My blog rule for this year was to just post…

• Has it really been four years!?

  

  Because it’s been a little over four years since starting this blog, I wanted to share with you my favorite posts. I should clarify that these are my favorites, not necessarily favorites in terms of post clicks, numbers, or even in being popular among people in my life. Because that’s what it’s all about! It’s all…

• Orange Pistachio (Russiagate) Cake with Impeachment Frosting

  

  This Independence Day, I thought I’d do my own take on Watergate Cake, which was first made popular in the mid-1970s, when instant cake mixes and artificial food colorings were all the rage. It was a popular cake to bring to potlucks and barbeques. The original called for a box of instant white cake mix…
