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?…
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)
This ice cream is basically Apple Pie a la Mode, but it’s all in the Mode. I feel as though there is a joke to be made here. But if I call it something like “Just the Mode,” will people think that means just vanilla ice cream? Why do we not call ice cream “mode”…

Butternut Squash Sausage Soup

Black Sesame Banana Bread
Last week was all about apple butter, this week is all about black sesame butter. Because I realized I still have some in my pantry from a while ago, and I should use it up. So I threw together this black sesame banana bread and used up 1/4 cup of it! The banana isn’t too…
