Spiced Apple Cider – Perfect For Fall

Spiced Apple Cider – Perfect For Fall

Nothing says fall like a warm mug of apple cider. I tried making it from scratch for the first time recently, and found the result to be really tasty, though I’m not 100% sure it’s that much better than just buying some high quality stuff from the grocery store. But it’s easy enough to make, …

Breakfast of Champions

Breakfast of Champions

In my euphoria over the election results (rendered all the more gratifying because election night did not go as planned, so my joy was paired with relief), I inadvertently published twice on Friday.  (The pumpkin bread pudding was supposed to be for today – if you missed it somehow, it is worth scrolling back to …

Autumn Decadence:  Pumpkin Bread Pudding with Spicy Caramel Apple Sauce and Vanilla Bean Creme Anglaise

Autumn Decadence:  Pumpkin Bread Pudding with Spicy Caramel Apple Sauce and Vanilla Bean Creme Anglaise

Often I post about recipes that are deceptively easy and garner oohs and aahs for minimal effort on your part.  This is not one of those recipes.  Not that it is crazy hard or that any of the steps are particularly challenging, but there are many components and in that sense it is quite time …

Leftover puff pastry?  Tarte Tatin!

Leftover puff pastry?  Tarte Tatin!

I was recently in Palm Desert, California so I decided to take advantage of being on the West Coast to surprise my mom (in Bend, Oregon) with a quick visit.  Noah was with me when I hatched the plan and he pointed out that hopping over to Oregon from California, two very large states, is …

Spinach and Pesto Lasagna Rolls – A New Take on Lasagna

Spinach and Pesto Lasagna Rolls – A New Take on Lasagna

So here’s the thing… I am not a huge fan of tomato sauce.  I prefer a white pizza to one drenched in tomato sauce, even a really good one, and I will always opt for a pasta with a sauce that is not red.  So these lasagna rolls spoke to me because they have spinach …

Crispy Calamari Pizza… and Rolling with the Punches

Crispy Calamari Pizza… and Rolling with the Punches

I have started my travel back up because I think it is essential to keep cancer on the front burner during this pandemic.  It is estimated that 80,000 cancers have gone unscreened and undetected while COVID has taken center stage.  So sharing my story and making sure that we don’t add more tragic loss to …

Cue the Oohs and Aahs… Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes

Cue the Oohs and Aahs… Molten Chocolate Lava Cakes

Just like brunch is my favorite meal because I can indulge in sweet and savory in one fell swoop (often in one dish!), molten lava cakes also scratch several itches.  You get cake, you get gooey puddling-like filling, and you get cool whipped cream or a scoop of ice cream to pair with the hot …

Tired of Salmon Fillets?  Try Salmon Fried Rice Instead!

Tired of Salmon Fillets?  Try Salmon Fried Rice Instead!

I think I have firmly established that I love rice.  I probably have seven different varieties in my closet, taking up an entire shelf.  It is such a great vessel for leftovers or, in the case of this stir fry, a really tasty way to switch up how to serve salmon. I also love a …

Cooking up a Better Future

Cooking up a Better Future

As I mentioned in a previous post, Noah is going to take a brief hiatus from his culinary pursuits to focus all of his free time on his political duties.  As Chair of the Democratic Party for his Congressional District in Wisconsin, he is busy helping local candidates and doing all he can to get …

A Pandemic Latte

A Pandemic Latte

My work travel is decidedly less enjoyable these days.  Wearing a mask for hours on end is tiresome and uncomfortable.  (I am aware that health care workers and teachers and everyone else on the front lines of this pandemic must wear masks and protective gear for much longer stretches and I can only say that …
