When you are shopping for the ingredients necessary for this recipe – which if I had to guess ( based on what was in my grocery cart) you will only need to gather a bit of unsweentened coconut flakes and more butter – you should probably also grab a roll of TUMS. I am not sayingContinue reading “Coconut Chocolate Pecan Bars”

Walnut Brownies with Flaky Sea Salt
Have you been basketballing this weekend? Fun fact…this weekend, the opening weekend of the NCAA basketball tournament, is the most common time of year for males to get a vasectomy. Get snipped and recover with an ice pack placed just perfectly so, basketball on the tube, and a beer in the hand. I find this toContinue reading “Walnut Brownies with Flaky Sea Salt”
Chocolate Glazed Walnut Brownies
I know. What the world needs is not one more brownie recipe.

Strawberry Jam Lemon Bars
I can not leave well enough alone. Never have. Well enough…doesn’t mean it’s OK. It means that there might be room for improvement. Even though attempts at this have real repercussions and can ultimately ruin and unravel ‘well enough’, but what if… There are always two ways the road can diverge from ‘well enough’. ItContinue reading “Strawberry Jam Lemon Bars”

It is September (oy!) and I have already pumped out a few pumpkin desserts. It doesn’t seem right. A pumpkin freakazoid, I am not. I am not one of those chicks just waiting for Starbucks to roll out their limited edition Pumpkin Spice latte (it is like Disney releasing Beauty and the Beast or TheContinue reading “Brown Butter Peach Raspberry Bars”

I love Ina Garten. This post might as well be called ‘ an ode to Ina”. I adore everything about her….even her button down shirts – that are tailored made just for her (why do I know this?) – with the popped collar – which makes me think of spring break and the cruiseContinue reading “Raspberry Jam Bars”
Post Disney Funk and Carmelitas
The week following a vacation is generally just a melancholic blur of work and laundry and grocery shopping and laundry and healthier eating and memories of warmth and sunshine. This goes for vacations lasting the usual 7 days or those extending towards two weeks and/or particularly those cut short at 3 or 4 days, the so-calledContinue reading “Post Disney Funk and Carmelitas”

Happy New Year’s Eve! So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night, 2012. Let’s be honest… this isn’t a good-bye forever…I will continue to write you on checks and various other papers until at least February. I mean, just last week, I wrote 2010 on a receipt at the car repair shop, so I am guessing I will seeContinue reading “Peanut Brittle Blondies”
