Grilled Asparagus
Saturday May 12, 2012
There is something to be said for simplicity... and vegetables.
Grilled asparagus is like the perfect relationship. It's good for you, requires a bit of seasoning, but the road is smooth and rock free with no tears or arguments. Perfectly low maintenance.

Monday May 6, 2012
I have a confession to make. I totally have a crush on scones with dried fruit. Kinda like how I have a crush on thunderstorms... and boys who hold doors for me.

Chocolate-Ginger Spice Cookies
Saturday April 28, 2012
I don't often make cookies. I don't find them particularily pretty to look at or interesting enough to make. However, my roomates LOVE cookies, and when they politely request I make these ones- I give in.
Actually it's more of a "chocolate ginger cookies?....chocolate ginger cookies?...................chocolate ginger cookies?" repeated OVER AND OVER again until I finally turn the oven on.

Lemon Poppyseed Loaf
Friday April 20, 2011

For the most part when I create a new recipe, it turns out alright. Theres the occasional masterpiece right off the bat, but I do end up making a lot of things I deem subpar and I work on to perfect... and then there are the misses... I like to pretend I never have those...
This lemon loaf took me a few tries. We had a battle of epic proportions.

Sushi Hand Rolls
Wednesday April 18, 2012
The weather is playing tricks on me. Yesterday was so nice and warm in the morning. Like summer. Then there were the tornado like winds and rain that almost blew me off my bike. Biking in a tornado - bad idea.
Lets boycott the crazy weather. Stay in and make sushi - good idea.

Easy Artisan Breads at Home
Thursday April 12, 2012
Do not fear the bread. Make some tomorrow. Impress your friends and family. It's the right thing to do.
My cousins came down for Easter this year and it was so great to have them around! Also great because they shared a bread baking method with me that I had never considered before. Cooking bread in a Le Creuset! Usually I use my pizza stone when I make bread but this idea intrigued me and I had to give it a try.
