French Onion Soup is something that I always thoroughly enjoy when given the opportunity to order it at a restaurant. A stunningly white crock full of aromatic, brothy onion soup topped with a chunk of baguette and smothered in bubbly, browned Gruyere cheese that is dripping over the top and down the sides. I love [...]

Does your freezer look like this? Do you wish it looked like this? (Images above courtesy of Google Images; neither are my freezer, that is coming up!) I think we’ve all had a moment when we’ve unearthed something from the depths of our freezer only to wonder not only when it was put there, but [...]

Macaroni and cheese is a perennial favorite among kids and a safe fall back for parents with picky eaters. However, most adults will tell you that they still consider the ooey, gooey dish to be one of the ultimate comfort foods. One of the best things I could have ever done was learn how to [...]

Quiche Lorraine is a quintessential brunch favorite. After all, what’s not to love about eggs, Swiss cheese, bacon and green onions in a flaky, buttery crust? I personally can devour anything involving bacon and cheese in seconds flat. It can be anything – quiches, sandwiches, burgers – you name it, and if it has bacon [...]

Happy 3rd Birthday to my Golden Retriever, Einstein! Since I find an excuse to bake for just about every other occasion I couldn’t let my dog’s birthday pass without letting him enjoy a special cake. I went looking online to find a dog-suitable recipe for a cake and can you believe there are whole bakeries [...]

These muffins reignited an as-yet unresolved internal debate I have about chocolate muffins. I mean, are they really muffins? I tend to believe they are more on the order of chocolate cupcakes sans the icing. I think perhaps the benefit of calling treats of this nature muffins is to ensure that they can be eaten [...]

This is somewhat of an embarrassing confession. I have never eaten a scone that hasn’t originated from my kitchen. I don’t do the Starbucks thing and I don’t really frequent bakeries all that often, and when I do I’m typically more drawn to the sugary-sweet and chocolate confections, rather than breakfast-type treats. So all I [...]

Holy Cannoli, these are awesome!! As a good Italian girl, I’ve been enjoying cannoli for a long time, but I had yet to learn how they were actually made, until this holiday season. Sure you could buy the shells and fill them with a homemade filling, but I’m talking honest-to-goodness homemade, from start to finish. [...]
