Weeknight Ramen

It’s been almost two years since my last post. Two years!!! When we moved from Nashville to Michigan in 2019, I had planned an epic return-to-my-Michigan-foods-roots post. Maybe beef pasties (which are meat pies – get your mind out of the gutter) or pierogis? Or paczki for my first Fat Tuesday back? Welp, that didn’t …

Farewell Nashville: Cheddar Yogurt Biscuits

It’s true; this is my final post for our Nashville lives as we’ve accepted an offer on the house and we are moving back up north to our home state of Michigan!  The hubs defended his thesis and achieved his doctorate this past week!  It’s over and we can all collectively breathe a huge sigh …

Scalloped Potato Roll

I definitely made this recipe before we all got whatever plague my son’s pre-school passed along to us this week. Pre-school has been great for P’s social development and terrible for mine!  We are sick all the time, I swear he misses like 50% of pre-school from being sick.  It’s a ruthless cycle of life …

NYT Cranberry Curd Tart

This post is my Thanksgiving recipe offering to you! A brightly colored (and gluten-free if you follow the NYT recipe) super (and I mean SUPER) tart, tart.  Full disclosure, P did not like it.  This is a fun dessert to try but do be sure to also have a separate pumpkin/apple/chocolate pie on hand for …

Being an old-ass mom of a newborn and extremely active 3 year old, I’m allllll about the speediness of dinner.  Bon Appetit put out a super weird (and quick) recipe for a smashburger; that is, a burger you make on the grill but in a pan (on the grill).  I had been making BA’s “smashburger” …

Hummus Beyrouti

I had baby O!  He’s a healthy, hungry and happy little guy who made his debut into this world with wide eyes open and a full head of Show Hair. We are all adjusting to life as a family of four with a new baby, but there are three things I’d forgotten about having a …

Rosemary Focaccia

Things are moving along in our household at the pace of a bullet train as we count down the days (24-holy moly!!!) until the arrival of baby number two this month!  I’d love to say our environment is a calming one for these final 3 weeks of pregnancy, but with my three year old becoming …

Speedy Sugar Cookies

Christmas is almost upon us! 🎄 You’ll know this if you leave your house because the frenzy is real! Speaking of frenzy, everyone wants to make sugar cookie dough faster than fast, right? Cook’s Illustrated November-December issue has a recipe that does just that. It’s so fast you don’t even have to let the butter …

Homemade Cheddar Bunny Crackers

I do realize the last three posts I’ve written are carb laden.  I don’t know what to say other than this baby in my belly loves carbs! P’s current favorite snack is cheese crackers, so what better snack to bake together than his favorite one?  My toddler is a great (ok, somewhat messy and wild) …
