The Bread and Breakfast
Just a foodie, making her way through her baking bucket lists!
Here we are, on the second Sunday of March Maple Madness. Here I am, already wishing it was going to last longer. Why? Because this week’s recipe has me seeing maple in a whole new light. When most of us think of maple, we think of pancakes. Fluffy, stacked as high as your head, indulgent …
This summer, when I went traveling solo, I honed quite a few skills: navigating new lands without a guide, striking up conversation with friendly looking people, learning to enjoy time doing me, and most of all, window shopping. Throughout my journey, there were so many reasons why I found myself just gazing through the windows …
Can I tell you about one of my favorite movies? (That was rhetorical…of course I can!) Inception. First, and foremost, Leonardo Dicaprio. Enough said.

I’m not sure if you remember, but, a few months ago, we talked about BFFs. There are a few people/things in life that go hand in hand, always. For example, Ree and Hyacinth, peanut butter and jelly, ice cream and the beach, leggings and boots, bananas and bread. The list goes on. Well, today is a day …
Happy National Oatmeal Day! That’s right. Today is a day to celebrate the fact that oatmeal is SO much more than that bland gooey mess your mom used to serve you for breakfast every morning.
