Haunted Pumpkin Handpies

Haunted Pumpkin Handpies

Queue the spooky soundtrack—it's that time of year again! I love pumpkin pie—proof here. I know, I know, it's more of a Thanksgiving thing than it is Halloween but I think it's safe to say that, especially in recent years, it obviously fits just about any day of the season (I'm looking at you, Pumpkin Spice People). And while I can't fully get behind putting pumpkin spice on everything—I mean, please tell me pumpkin spice gum or Kool Aid don't actually exist—I am totally all for a good ... continue reading...

Chocolate Banana Bread

Chocolate Banana Bread

In keeping with the theme and overall speed of this recipe, I'm keeping this post on the shorter side.   I love banana bread. I love seeing those dark flecks from the banana running throughout it. I love the aroma that fills the house when you bake it. I love the soft, tender, dare I say, moist yield of the cake—oops, sorry... bread—and I love when someone for whatever reason gives or serves me banana bread that they've made. It's been a long time since I've made banana ... continue reading...

Za’atar Chicken Flatbreads with Tomato-Mint Salad & Halloumi

Za’atar Chicken Flatbreads with Tomato-Mint Salad & Halloumi

This recipe was an accident—a culinary baby surprise, if you will. A few years back I made a huge batch of za'atar chicken, from a whole jointed chicken, and a massive bowl of tomato-mint salad with my garden-crop of cherry tomatoes. I knew it was going to be a busy week at work and I had a lot of packing to do as I was preparing to move 700 miles away in a few short weeks so rather than spending time puttering about in the kitchen after work as I would normally prefer I knew some ... continue reading...

Fridge Pickle!

Fridge Pickle!

I love pickling.   Notice I said pickling and not canning. It’s not that I have anything against canning—I’ve done it quite happily—but sometimes it’s too finicky for me. Too much can go wrong, too many standards and requirements, too much technicality. One wrong move, one little adjustment to the recipe, a few degrees off in the water and the whole thing goes bad. So it’s this impatience and my gravitation to not following the rules of anything that make me lean a bit more towards ... continue reading...

Peach Sangria

Peach Sangria

There's nothing quite like a peach in the summer. In more recent years I've been toying with peaches a bit—caramels, bourbon, spices. My favorite has easily been the roasted peach shortcakes I made last summer where, in addition to being served with a bourbon whipped cream, the shortcakes themselves are made with ground amaretti cookies in place of some of the flour. Their taste is out of this world. I went back and forth over what exactly I should do with the peaches I brought home not ... continue reading...

Lemon Cheesecake

Lemon Cheesecake

The last few months have been a little crazy. In addition to the routine insanity (yes, my insanity is routine) I’ve been spending every weekend for last month or so doing yard work. It was—the yard and garden—a major source of stress for me as of late. There’s a tremendous amount of hedges to trim and keep tidy, and trees to prune back. I’ve got a herb garden that was overrun with weeds for a time and now that it’s cleared and herbs and veg have their own space it desperately needs mulching ... continue reading...
