Pie is most certainly my favorite thing to make. Often on afternoon making pie dough, getting my fingers into the cold butter and flour, it’s like a beautiful mental trip or therapy session. It soothes the soul. Can I say that’s really the secret to any yummy flaky pie dough. And when it comes to…
Classic Peanut Butter Ice Cream
There are certain desserts that I wholeheartedly believe are year-long delights to bake and enjoy. Their simplistic essence that only needs a handful of ingredients to naturally and wildly transform according to the season, the ingredients available at hand or whatever imagination is setting the mood. And yet these desserts are sought out and devoured…
Salted Caramel Ice Cream
Ice cream makes everything in life that much better. I wholeheartedly live by that mantra. The comfort a creamy sweet scoop brings when a random craving hits or whenever you’re feeling sad, the joyful memories of hearing the ice cream truck sing its tune when you were a child or the times spent enjoying a…
Chocolate – Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Ice Cream
Where most would say January felt long and dragged, I on the other hand felt it was long in every perfect way! The kind of slow and long that allowed time for work, free creative time, time for personal stuff and simple relaxing things like stitching, cooking, baking and reading. But February.

d’Anjou Pear + Marmelade Tart
I confess, I much prefer a pear tart over any form of a pear pie. The thinly baked slices of honey like pear, often layered atop a thing layer of the seasonal jam of choice, the mid autumn, well into winter, it’s Marmalade. I quite like Quince marmalade, particularly when it’s homemade, and even better…
Mango Curd Ice Cream
And just like that, another summer month is coming to its end. July where did you go so quickly? I didn’t get to enjoy and make nearly enough ice cream to commemorate National Ice Cream Month. This food holiday isn’t just a fad either, it’s been around since 1984 when President Ronald Reagan declared July as…
Apple Cider Granola
Apple cider, it’s everywhere come Fall. And I’m not complaining one bit, in fact I can’t get enough of it. Warmed in a mug and swirled with a cinnamon stick for cozy movie nights, baked into fresh from the farm soft and cakey donuts, and cooked into a decadent caramel. The other thing I’m loving, granola….
