Raspberry Brownie Bites

I’m one of those people who likes Valentine’s Day more than I should admit. While feigning apathy and even disdain for this so-called Hallmark Holiday, I secretly love the idea that there is one random night every year where you are justified in splurging on a date night dinner, even when the remaning 364(ish) days of the [...]

Toasted Coconut Macaroons

Hey, everyone. I feel like it’s been forever, though in reality it’s not even been a week since my last post. There have been so many developments and changes in my life, I don’t know where to start! As far as news goes, I did manage to get a job that I really love. The bad news [...]

Sour Cream Coffee Cake Muffins

I’m hesitant to post on the weekends, since I know most of you will be checking your feeds come Monday morning. I’d hate for such a great recipe to go by the wayside. Then again, I thought I’d reward the few who, like me, carve out some time on, say, a Saturday morning to saddle up [...]

Crispy Gingersnaps

To say that I’m a homebody is something of an understatement. I’ve said before that my favorite part of a night out is coming home to my pajamas — and I much prefer a night in at that. I spent most of the summer — against all advice to the contrary — studying for the bar [...]

Cranberry Gingerbread

If you live in New York City, you know that one of the bravest things a New Yorker can do is to tackle Trader Joes during the rush hour. And by rush hour, I mean pretty much every weekday after 11 a.m. and weekends (except Friday and Saturday after 9 p.m.). It’s a scary place, that Union Square Trader [...]

Pumpkin Ice Cream Pie

Having many unanswered questions in my life these days (like, when will I get a job? for example), anything that’s certain is a good thing. And if there’s one thing I’m certain of right now, it’s this: in my next life, I want to be Gwyneth Paltrow.

I mean, is there anything that woman hasn’t accomplished? Oscar-winning actress? [...]

Cranberry Apple Crisp

Fall seems to have finally unpacked her bags and made herself at home here in New York, after weeks and months of t-shirt weather interspersed with a random, single chilly day. So when fall-inspired desserts were popping up on many a food blog, my mind was still craving ice cream and summery things. But now I’ve [...]

Key Lime Cheesecake

When I was younger, I was the girl who listened to exclusively broadway musicals, who didn’t have cable, and who read books like Jane Eyre and Wuthering Heights at the age of 10. So, when a friend invited me to a Bare Naked Ladies concert with her (yes, I still managed to have at [...]

Chocolate Chip-Pumpkin Blondies

I’m trying to pace my posts these days. After all, it won’t be long (I hope) before I actually join the 9-5 workforce, when testing 4-5 recipes a day is no longer a luxury. Then, I’ll wish I’d saved up some recipes to avoid the last-minute scramble for a post after a weeks-long hiatus.

All that said, [...]

Cran-Apple Cornbread

Balance. I think it’s something we all strive for in our diets, though doing so can require constant work and attention. It’s not always easy to monitor our sugar intake while diversifying the color of our vegetables, or the types of protein we’re eating. After cutting animal products from my diet earlier this year, I’ve sometimes [...]
