Champagne Risotto with Peas and Parmesan
Can you tell that I’m tired of winter? I’m really laying it on thick with the warm weather dishes lately (hello, Tomato Tart). I’m just over it, in need of something that at least feels a little lighter. I know risotto isn’t a salad or anything, but it does pair well with one. […]
Dorie’s Honey Wheat Cookies
This week for TWD we got a nice break from all of the heavy chocolate desserts and got to try out these Honey Wheat Cookies, chosen by Flourchild. Wheat germ and honey take center stage in this recipe, so they’re basically a health food. I waited until the last minute to throw these […]
Waiting For Summer: Tomato Tart
Boys and girls, it has been quite the winter season. I think most of us would agree that spring and summer can’t come soon enough.. and it was in that spirit that I broke out this recipe for Tomato Tart. We’ve had a little break in the cold weather here in the last two days […]
Great Bread: Rustic Potato Bread
Are we really having another snow day in Dayton? I hope we’re getting every last bit of winter this week before spring comes out to play. I’d also like someone else to come out to play.. but that’s another story for another day. Today, we have an installment of the Great Bread series. I haven’t […]
Kitchen Sink Blondies
These don’t really look like blondies, do they? Well, joke’s on all of us. These bars are are blondies through and through. I know they look like brownies, but the only chocolate in these are the chips! This recipe is based off Jill O’Connor‘s recipe from Sticky, Chewy, Messy, Gooey called Big Blondes. I […]
Magic Oatmeal
Oatmeal is a winter staple in lots of homes. It’s the breakfast that keeps you going until lunchtime. Unless you’re pregnant. Then it just might be your first of multiple breakfasts. Regardless of how many breakfasts I eat, I’ve always had a pretty good relationship with oatmeal as a breakfast food. I would say I […]
Cheesy Broccoli and Potato Soup
I think I’ve started to nest. But not in the same way as most mommies do. Since my Yankee husband and I are headed to the south right after the baby is born, I don’t really get to prepare a nursery in this apartment. So my nesting tendencies have been geared toward general spring cleaning […]
Inside Out Pizza Roll
Pregnancy is kind of a roller coaster. Have you heard? Mostly, I say that because it’s my excuse for not posting so much. Even though I love food blogging, and I still check out other food blogs all the time, I’ve just been bad at documenting what’s going on in the kitchen around here. I’ve […]
Chewy, Fudgy Brownies
I had a craving for brownies today that would not let up. I tried to let it pass, but I just couldn’t. So I looked through my files for any brownie recipes that had the words “chewy” or “fudgy” in the title.. and BINGO. The Dessert Bible’s Chewy, Fudgy Brownies. I hadn’t tried the recipe […]
Looking Back at 2009
I know I’ve been pretty scarce with posting these days, but with baby on the way and the early winter darkness, I haven’t been able to get any prime photos of what’s been cooking around here. So, in honor of the year that was, and to confirm to my Oven Lovers that I’m still alive, […]
