A Song of Place

I know I’m a bit late to the party, but I finished Where the Crawdads Sing on the flight back. Delia Owen’s novel is beautiful. The descriptions are *chef’s kiss.*

Last Minute Baking

I threw together another batch of scones. This time, however, I had to get a little creative since we were out of fresh fruit. And since we’ve been on a bit of a lavender kick I finally worked it into a bake.

More (or less) Time

I’ve been doing a lot of baking – it’s a good de-stressor for me. The honeymoon is next week, and my next freelance article is due the day before we leave. I think it’s all getting to me in some way, so I keep turning to the kitchen.

Don’t Blink!

Look, I did a magic trick! All those M&M’s in the candy dish? I’ve turned them into a super healthy snack! A snack that’s *almost* better than the M&M’s themselves. 

Motivation…and Rice

Onigiri, or rice balls. My boss’ wife has made me a few over the past year, when nights get long and the donuts pile up. And they’re soooo good. And also super simple.
