I see you, September. There’s pie, yes. There’s a crisp. A crumble. A tart. Great, fabulous. But you have ever put a custard underneath your apples? Have you? Because you’re about to. But first let me admit something about apples, and I need you to hear me out. Don’t get mad. Here we go. Full […]
HAYEALTH! This is the conundrum with food blogging. Let me tell you. I’m going to tell you. Hold on, let me refill my coffee. And froth my milk. You know this has to be done a certain way. One sec. Okay! This is the conundrum with food blogging in this world. So often I get […]
I mean, you can see where this is going, right? But see, it’s not just a tart for this weekend. (but make it this weekend) It’s really an anytime tart! Tarte. Tart. Toot. I think they all work. First of all, what’s the temp going to be where you are on Sunday? Here? ONE. ONE […]

No that does not say TRAPEZE. But the weird thing is, the little penne pastas kind of look like little trapezes, don’t they? And I didn’t even plan that. THE STARS ALIGN ON THIS GLORIOUS DAWN, Y’ALL. Trapanese pesto is yet another Lidia-inspired recipe. And yes, I’m completely obsessed with her, thanks. I think it’s […]
Hiya! Actually, I don’t know what I think about saying “hiya.” It didn’t really feel like me. And it’s not like I even needed to open with saying hi or hiya or hello or what up or hey dude or grüezi or whatever. I guess it’s because I’m in Arkansas right now, at a different […]
Is your computer screen’s brightness turned all the way up? Check real quick. No? Okay turn it up. I’ll wait. I MEAN JUST LOOK. Sometimes when I’m editing on the sofa I won’t have my laptop plugged in and I’ll edit all these photos and think, eeeeh. And then I remember that since it’s not […]
