Maybe someone has told you before that eating salad can change your life (cough, infomercials, your doctor, 1-800-Jenny, cough). But I’m not kidding this time. This salad is amazing. The idea for this salad came at the grocery store. I asked Nick what he wanted for lunch. He said, “salad.” And before you know it, […]

Staring at my fridge, full of leftover mini bread puddings and Iron Cupcakes and various sweet experiments, I wasn’t sure that I wanted to make another little dessert just so it would sit in my fridge. But, my love for Dorie and fear of being disowned by the other TWDers led me to these little […]

It’s been fun for me to put together these green recipes for you, and I hope you’ll enjoy them this spring and summer. The last recipe is great for breakfast, lunch or dinner- check out the Green Frittata! I loved […]

Apologies to my lovely readers: Sorry I’ve been absent for the past few days! Things were a little crazy with Tickled Pink. I had a last minute wedding order and a promo event in two days.. fun, but time-consuming! But now I’m back, and bringing the Green Series back with me. Today’s recipe: Green Pea […]

Since today is Earth Day, I thought it was only right to continue the Green Series. Today’s recipe is Spinach and Ham Souffle. This was my first attempt at making a souffle. I have always admired the way they look, all puffy and brown and yummy-looking. I love the look of both savory and sweet […]

This week’s Tuesdays with Dorie recipe comes from Lauren at Upper East Side Chronicle. It’s Dorie’s Four Star Chocolate Bread Pudding. I’m a bread pudding lover.. but this week I discovered that I’m not a chocolate bread pudding lover. I much prefer the toasty, creamy, cinnamon-y flavor of a classic bread pudding.. I feel like […]

I’m so excited! This is the first “Pre-Made, Our Way.” round-up! First, I’ll show you how my Wheat Thins turned out… I made three types: salted, sesame (pictured) and garlic herb. I tried to roll them out as thin as possible, which worked well on my Silpat with a plastic fondant roller (nothing sticks to […]

Back in September, shortly after I started Oven Love, my sweet husband wrote a little poem for me. He found it this afternoon, and gave me his permission to share it with you! Ode To My Oven Love(r)(by Mr. Oven Love) Everyday with thrift and zeal,She crafts the “bloggy” kind of meal;Martha gives her inspiration,Nattle* […]

I know this is the Green Series, but maybe I should be call this the P series! There’s an awful lot of of P’s in the title of this dish: Parsley Pesto Pasta with Peas and Potatoes.. whew! This is a fresh and tasty spring dish that is a little more interesting than your basic […]

Spring time is finally here in Dayton, and it’s about time! In honor of the new greenery outside, I’ll be posting a few recipes to bring the green inside. Look forward lots of green veggies like spinach, peas and asparagus- yum! The first recipe in the Green Series is an Asparagus Gruyere Tart. This recipe […]

Sorry, TWDers! I’m opting out this week. I haven’t missed a challenge in a while, but I’ve decided to take a week off. With all of the Easter treats and cupcakes around here, I think I’d go into a sugar coma! I also wasn’t able to find the amaretti cookies here in Ohio, but the […]

I’ve been meaning to make these bars for a while now, and Easter was the perfect opportunity. I saw them on My Baking Addiction, and the picture just had me drooling! I’m a fan of most blondies and brownies, but they have to be moist and chewy. None of that cakey stuff. These fit the […]
