Cooking Without Dishes?

Our Prague kitchen had very few pots and pans, so we had to get a bit creative…

Bake Off Binge (part 2/2)

We bought ourselves one month of Netflix for Christmas. First order of business: catch up on The Great British Bake Off!

Seasonal Fruit

Fall in Croatia means it’s pomegranate season! We picked up our first pom at a fruit market and that thing was huge! This single fruit got me thinking, though. Could we put it in food?

Hi Again!

I’ve been taking an unannounced and unplanned hiatus from the blog. I’d been feeling overwhelmed (and discouraged) by how I’d been living daily life, and the blog had become an obligation that hung over my head rather than the joy it used to be. So, I let it go for a while. And it’s been good. Now I feel ready to be back.

Pizza for Better or Worse

I’ll leave you with this pizza dough that has quickly become a favourite of ours. We made it a few weeks ago, on a rainy Sunday evening after an entire week of rain. It was a very bright spot in a very dark time (literally), and so here’s hoping it will cheer you up as much as the memory of it cheers me.

Layers of Butter

The last time I made puff pastry was almost five years ago. That was pre GBBO obsession, before I identified as a baker. After watching all the seasons of GBBO (no shame), I like to think I know what I’m doing now.

Tarts by the Sea

When you like to bake and cook with your fiancé, Valentine’s is no longer just a day but a weekend event. We began Friday night and carried it through dinner on Saturday.
