It seems like I had myself an apple tasting one afternoon. I spent another beautiful fall morning at the farm picking apples and pumpkins, but the best part about going again is the abundance of many more varieties. There were endless rows of colorful Macintosh, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious that were still green, Macoon, and my…
Caramel Apple Cheesecake Ice Cream
Inspired by a caramel apple cheesecake I have made for several Thanksgivings, I decided to continue with my apple baking, and make an ice cream that paid homage to that fall dessert my family enjoys so much. Caramel apples are so synonymous with carnivals and harvest festivals, the decadent rich caramel and crisp apple are perfect for…
Pumpkin Ale Caramel Sauce
Aside from apple butter and pumpkin, the one of thing you need on hand this fall is caramel. I first became hooked on salted caramel after I made this boozy version, and this ale one will make all your seasonal favorites even richer. I like the depth of flavor the pumpkin ale gives the salted dark amber caramel. Caramel…
Raspberry Ice Cream
I just can’t let summer go. I was staring at two pints of fresh raspberries I picked up at the farmer’s market, and I knew pumpkin or apple flavored recipes would have to wait a bit, at least until I got over my summer berry binge. I could’ve done anything with these ripened berries, I thought…

Sweet n’ Salty Cookie Crunch Ice Cream
To be honest, I think it took me longer to come up with a name for this ice cream than to actually make it. It’s more than just cookies n’ cream, or chocolate chip, or cookie nut pretzel crunch. It’s the ultimate snack time ice cream, but how does one give it a name without sounding…
Golden Egg Hunt Tablescape & A Natural Textured Egg DIY
Easter egg hunts weren’t really a tradition in my family, but I know they can be quite fun having seen a few in college. So I wanted to recreate my own egg hunt with a playful centerpiece. I hid eggs, big and small throughout, which makes looking at the centerpiece like an egg hunt itself. “The Golden…

If the chilling weather, and endless houses decked in holiday lights haven’t assured you that it’s the end of November, then that the fact that Thanksgiving is just a week away, sure will. The holidays can become quite daunting and frustrating for most. Instead of it being a time to celebrate with loved ones over…
