• 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 […]

  It’s the first weekend of Summer in the Seattle area, and I’m so happy the weather finally reflects that! Happy Summer! These came about as I sat wondering what I have on hand that I haven’t baked with yet… Mixed nuts! Literally staring at me from the kitchen counter! My go-to snack lately. This particular […]

• International Peace Day and National Pecan Cookie Day

  

  Being that today is both International Peace Day and National Pecan Cookie Day, this was pretty much an inevitability that I repost, even though I made these back in July! Actually, peace was the farthest thing from my mind yesterday, what with all the ongoing news of horrible events and injustices in our country and […]

The world and US national news definitely felt overwhelming, and still feels overwhelming, but my personal life has been relatively good. Ben and I have been adjusting to the new permanent resident […]

• blueberry pecan chocolate chunk bread

  

  Have you ever had days where you want to bake something, but you don’t want to think too hard about it? I was having one of those days, and this recipe came about because of it. I baked this a few nights ago and literally just decided on the ingredients as I opened the cupboards to […]

• pumpkin burnt sugar cake with butterscotch pecan filling and chocolate molasses glaze

  

  I need to figure out how to name things without feeling like I have to include every single ingredient in the title. I guess I could just call this the Pumpkin BS Cake with Molasses Glaze. But I guess that wouldn’t really work, would it? I found a recipe for burnt sugar cake in the […]
