I am interrupting your regularly-scheduled Christmas baking posts to bake some cake to celebrate the release of Percy Jackson season 2!! I made these blue chocolate chip cookies for season 1, and I explained in that post how the whole blue food thing is from the books. It’s an inside joke between him and his…
A Tale of Christmas Hubris
I have said this before, but my fatal flaw is hubris. I have an over-confidence about my ability to do a lot of things. I think that I can do a lot of things better than the way they are currently done. I often say people should consult me on things. And you know what?…
Frosted Chocolate Gingerbread Cookies
It’s Christmas cookie season!! I’m always torn between making the classics and wanting to try a bunch of different kinds. I will of course get around to making the classics this year. But I’ve got to sneak in a few new ones as well! You never know when you’ll hit on a new classic. And…
Chocolate Gingerbread Banana Bread Muffins
When my family goes on a vacation that requires grocery shopping to stock up our place for a week or two, it seems my role is to be the one to take home the leftovers. Which is fine, I elect to take this role most of the time. But it also means I have to…
Apple Pie Ice Cream (Dairy Free and Regular)

(Just a few) Black Sesame Monster Cookies
Like I said a few posts ago, I’m in black sesame mode for a few bakes here, to use up some of my black sesame butter. My sister made some delicious monster cookie bars the other day, so when I was thinking of ways to use up the black sesame butter, monster cookies were top…
Butternut Squash Sausage Soup
My sister discovered this soup recipe a few years ago, and made it for my family. It became an instant keeper, and entered into our rotation. (It’s kind of a perfect soup. I know, a bold claim to make. But trust me.) I’ve made it a lot since then, and I’ve considered posting about it….
