The Bread and Breakfast
Just a foodie, making her way through her baking bucket lists!
For those of you who don’t know, this past week was a busy one. While busy is a pretty normal state of being around here, we were extra tight on time this week. Yes, we. “What do you mean, Erin? What happened to being all single independent woman who don’t need no man?!” Well, friends, …
Flash back 15 months ago. I was done. Done, with what I thought the weight loss journey of a lifetime. Over a year and a half; losing weight, getting thinner. At the end of this span of time, I looked back and thought, “Hot damn, 60 pounds down.” My entire journey, summarized and defined by …
Summer is an amazing season. Why? Because for teachers, it is the one time of year we get to do something remarkable: think and breathe. Having just finished the school year and curriculum work, I’ve started doing just that for the first time in about 9 months. Since I haven’t done it in so long, …
This year, I’ll be honest, I got to spring cleaning kind of late. Late, as in, I waited until the beginning of Summer to do it. What’s worse is that from the beginning of the year, until now, I’ve watched my cabinets slowly turn into monsters. Little by little, bags of M&Ms, chocolate chips, cereal, …
Okay friends, it’s confession time. When it comes to desserts, there is one that I love to eat ten times more than I like to make: pie. I take it back. Really, just pie crust. Don’t get me wrong. The steps to making pie crust are so easy, in theory. You simply combine flour with …
Happy Mother´s Day Eve Day! This one goes out to all of the wonderful mothers out there, AND their daughters who may still be looking for the perfect gift to get their loved one. While I wish I had inherited more traits from my mom (like her never-ending patience, and her always-positive attitude), my Mom and I …
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. Beyond Leo and his overall superiority, the concept itself is such a cool one! A dream, inside of a dream! It makes a gal think! While watching this flick for the …
Friends, it’s time we head back to the lab. In the past, we’ve done cookie experiments, international Kit Kat experiments, muffin experiments, macaroon experiments, puff pastry experiments…you name it. Well, today, you’ll need to break out your notepads, pencils, and goggles for yet another test. This time, we’re testing one of my favorite things…in the …
I know, I know. You’re rolling your eyes at me today. Like every other weekend, as you feverishly typed in this site address, which you clearly do on regular basis, you were excited to see something new. Something original. Something I haven’t been doing at least monthly for awhile now. Well, my friends, this week is …
Folks, I’ve made a decision. The rest of the month of January is going to be dedicated to finding balance. I started last week with my Coconut Mango Chocolate Granola, and now, it must continue. After looking at the recent additions to my baking bucket list, I realized that they all had something in common: …
