I can’t even remember what I originally made these pickled veggies to go on, but now I love them on pretty much everything, from fried rice to carnitas to barbecue. They add the perfect crunch and a hit of punch of acidity and ginger flavor and they only take a couple minute to pull together. […]

I have thrown in the towel on my sourdough starter. And by that I mean it’s gone to the bakery in the sky via the garbage disposal. While sourdough certainly has it’s merits – it’s delicious, it can be easier to digest than traditional bread, it’s a fun in a food-science-y way – it also […]
I started my sourdough journey for the bread, but I’m staying for the crackers. These crackers specifically. They’re light and flakey and buttery. I could probably (definitely) eat an entire batch by myself in one sitting. So, without further ado, Salt and Pepper Sourdough Discard Crackers. (This is adapted from a King Arthur Flour cracker […]
My husband, Alex, has been making these margaritas for years when we have company over and they’re always a hit. The ingredients are simple – limeade concentrate, water, tequila, triple sec, orange juice, and agave nectar. Just mix in a pitcher, fill to the top with ice, and you’re ready to go.

This is the second batch of jumbo cookies we’ve made in the last week (#quarantine) and these were way better than the first version we made. That extra egg yolk makes all difference in the world. Side note: I love getting recipes from […]
My husband and I have been making these Thai boats for years and they always hit the spot. The peanut sauce makes them super filling. The romaine lettuce, lime, and cilantro mean they taste super fresh even in the dead of winter. Serve them up with a side of cilantro lime rice. And preferably a […]
Do I ignore the fact that I haven’t posted anything here in almost six months or do I acknowledge it? Follow up question: is it reasonable to blame the holidays for disappearing from September to February? I shut down for a few weeks in September because my basement, including my office was under construction. Then […]
There’s something about fall always feels like the time to declutter, organize, and just get my life together in general. I think it’s the result of years of my Type A self trying to get ready for school. Luckily, I’m not in school anymore, but that leaves me trying to channel all this energy into […]
