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 […]

Focaccia Pizza / Bev Cooks

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. […]

Pistachio Brittle

Pistachio Brittle / Bev Cooks

Brittle! I made candy! What even IS 2025. I have zero desire to be a candy maker, or to even make candy on a regular basis. But! I did promise a couple of recipes out of the back of First Frost, and Bev’s here to deliver on that promise. (third person obnoxiously included) I have […]
