Coconut Cake

Processed with VSCO with a6 preset

I almost called this Afternoon Coconut Cake because there’s such a feeling there, right? It’s a whole mood. It’s not just blah coconut cake blah. It’s a treat! It’s a little bite! It’s something special! Did you leave? Also, I’m not into cake. We all know that. But this kind of cake feels totally different […]

Frrrrrrrrrrrrring break! I mean spring break! Speed Queen washer and dryer users: what settings do you normally use? Yes I read the manual. But I want to know what normal people use when they do normal laundry. For now I’ve been using the eco setting, warm water, extra rinse so that I can use fabric […]

Frrrrrrarrrararararar! (<—?) What do we think 3am means? I mean, I KNOW what 3am is, but what do you think it means? (besides an odd way to start a blog post.) Like, why do people wake up specifically at 3am on the dot? Or do you ever? Or have you never? Or do you always? […]

snow day / bev cooks

Frrrrrrrrrrrrreeedeee. This is going to feel a bit different today. Partly because I don’t have much silliness bouncing around up in the noggin lately, but also I’m kind of in the mood to just be real with you all. Not that I’m not ever not real. Not really. (huh?) But this is definitely a season […]

Ummmm it’s another snow day, so we’re making BREAD, gosh darnit. Yes please. I don’t know how you’re all faring over there on your end, but this is snow day #75,924 and we are holding on by a frozen thread. I’m keeping an upbeat attitude though, because WARMTH IS ON THE WAY ALL CAPS NECESSARY. […]

Frrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrappy Valentine’s Day! Remember when I used to call it Balemtime’s Bay and you were still my friend? I’d like to apologize for putting you through that. …hello?

Orange Yogurt Bundt Cake / Bev Cooks

Let them eat . . . orange yogurt bundt cake! I’m going to tell you right now, this is not my recipe. It’s STRAIGHT from the exquisite Manon’s IG reels, and I about died when I saw her post it. I’m obsessed with her beautiful videos, her calming French voice, her angles and lighting and […]
