• zucchini bread

  

  I’m sorry I haven’t been around to see and like of all your amazing blog posts! The last 3 or 4 months, I’ve been spending a lot of time painting. This zucchini bread only happened because we had received a gift of zucchini from someone who had a lot of zucchini to give. The end…

• gingerbread scones

  

  Even though the King Arthur Flour recipe that I used for inspiration is for ginger scones, not gingerbread scones, I went with the same spice combination, minus the coriander–ginger, cloves, nutmeg, cinnamon, cardamom, and black pepper–but I upped the amount of butter mixed into the dough and also added some whole wheat flour into the…

• The Nutty Irish Dutch Baby

  

  This recipe is based on a cocktail called the Nutty Irishman, which is Irish whiskey and Frangelico, but it is really just a small German Pancake. The term Dutch Baby stems from “Deutsche Pfannkuchen”, which translates to German Pancakes. A restaurant in the 1900s Seattle, owned by Victor Manca and called Manca’s, offered them on…

• morning glory muffins

  

  Lately I’ve been attracted to make simple, familiar things that aren’t too complicated. I think it’s probably in response to the complicated world we now live in, and a yearning for simple and homey things that remind me of a simpler time. This was a recipe I tried several years ago, and this time I…

• Banana Raspberry Bread

  

  A couple of days ago, Ben said that I never bake anything anymore that is specifically for him, and that I always giveaway stuff for other people, like my coworkers. So today I got up and decided to make something that’s all for him. This was to hopefully make up for that comment, and for all the…

• ginger fig muffins

  

  We are experiencing more typical Seattle weather, finally! Which is nice. I mean, I like the dry and sunny summery days we’ve been having, but this is Seattle, and it is winter, dammit. Rainy days and Mondays do not always get me down. Plus, it’s baking weather! Plus, the lighting on a rainy day is perfect!…

• Dutch Baileys

  

    This was something I made awhile back, before I had this blog. I had decided to substitute some of the milk in a dutch baby recipe with Baileys Original Irish Cream. Just because. I wasn’t able to find anything online showing it had been done before, so I wasn’t sure it would work. But…

• Croque Madame

  

  Croque-Madame! The French ham and cheese sandwich with the egg on top! I finally had the pleasure of going to Café Presse with a friend a couple of weekends ago. Café Presse is a small French restaurant and bar just east of the downtown area, right on the border between Capitol Hill and First Hill.…
