Gingerbread Tart with Cranberry Curd

While I technically did not finish off the month by posting everyday I still consider my crazy attempt a success.
In this current season of life my time is very limited and more structured then I ever would have wanted it to be. I have two little sweet b...

Cranberry Pecan Rolls

Last year we started a Thanksgiving morning tradition. We eat a Pomegranate.
It just so happened that we had one lying on the counter as Gabe and I were discussing traditions we want to start with our young family. Suddenly a simple and delicious traditi...

Gingerbread Cookies

As a little girl I wanted to be Martha Stewart.
My best friend and I took it upon ourselves to create a publication for young girls, such as ourselves, who dreamed of being the crafter, cook and exceptional decorator that Martha is. Our magazine was call...

Meringue Mushrooms

I’ll be honest – I really have no idea what possessed me to make meringue mushrooms.
Maybe it was my new found love of foraging? Nah. I think it’s because they are so fun to look at and much sweeter than their real life counterpart.
I&#...

waiting

I’m waiting.
The recipe that I have to offer you tonight is still in the oven.  I thought maybe we could wait together.
Sooooo…. what’s new?
How have you been since the last time we talked?
Was it really just yesterday?
Have you seen th...

candy gifts – caramels and sticks

In the corner of our living room there are stacks and stacks of December issues of Martha Stewart Living.
There is the December ‘05 issue with a wreath studded with red glittering birds that hangs on a door painted the color of mint ice cream. Dece...

tripping
I am so happy I married someone who knows his way around a computer.
Currently he is sitting to my right designing, programming and all-around creating a new website for me. Don’t worry – I’m not doing a complete overhaul of the blog ...

quince brandy

Christmas came early this year in the form of quince. A friend, who has a friend, who has a tree, was unloading some of her bounty. I was there to happily collect and welcome the fragrant beauties with open arms and plenty of ideas.
I am fairly certain t...

Masters

I arranged for a babysitter before I knew what the evening agenda was. My husband knew and that was all that mattered.
The night before our less-than-ordinary evening away, Gabe handed me a glassine envelope thick with papers. In years past these strange...

Flavoring coffee

The last and final day of the coffee series. I really am quite sad about this actually. It turns out that not only do I love to drink coffee but I love to talk to you about it too.
Although we’re not standing face to face, this world is indeed a cr...

a pass
I’d like to cash in my “Get out of Posting Free” card. Those exist right?
It’s not that I don’t have things to share. Because I do. And it’s not that I don’t want to spend time with you kind people. Because I do. ...

Coffee and bars

We’re getting into the good stuff tonight. Not that I don’t enjoy the drinks we’ve talked about previously. Each drink has its time and place but tonight we’re discussing some of the lesser known yet incredibly delicious drinks. L...

Guide to espresso drinks, cont’d.

Boy do I need coffee today. It’s grey outside, I stayed up far too late and woke up far too early. On top of that I am going to dinner tonight in a room filled with people I don’t know. Eek. I’m going by myself. Double eek. You see I am...

A Seattleites Guide to coffee




I fit the Seattle stereo-type through and through. I love coffee. In the morning, afternoon, evening and well into the night I enjoy this jitter inducing, sleep-preventing, delicious drug.
I love coffee’s smoky complexity. It fascinates me that ...

Tired, but i’m here

Oh man. Eek. I’m cutting it close tonight. 11:12pm my computer is telling me.
So let me just start with a little disclaimer – this post won’t be an award winner, it won’t be prolific  – in fact I have no idea what I am going...

More mushrooms for me

I interrupt the regularly schedule apple post to bring you an excursion in the woods. A heavy on photos light on words sort of a post that marks the – wait – what day is this? 6th post of 31. *gulp*
On Wednesday I went mushroom hunting. I rea...

Winter White Salad

I know I may be jumping the gun a bit by posting a “Winter” recipe as it seems Summer has just recently said its final goodbye. But as the wind currently wisps outside my windows and the rain pelts down on the fragile jewel-toned foliage I ju...

Applejack Rabbit circa 1965

It’s day four and I’m ready for a drink. How about you?
I guess I should have made this a bit more clear in yesterday’s post but we are talking about apples here – in all their splendor. We’ve turned apples into candy (or pa...

Apple Pate de Fruit

“This is the best fruit roll-up I’ve ever had” was my reaction after the first taste of a Pate de Fruit. Which was in fact the best compliment I could have given these little jewels.
Finding a fruit roll-up in my brown paper lunch bag a...

Pumpkin Pie
I love that I’ve posted two entries that have both deviated from my NaBloWriMo plan – and it’s only the second day. Typical. But I assure you over the next few days you will get your fair share of apples.

This past Saturday I found myse...
