Vegan Schaum Brötle (German meringue cookies)

Writing about those cookies had my mouth-watering, so I decided […]

One of the reasons that I love fall is that it is apple season and I love apples. I’ve been wishing for a bite of a Japanese apple (a little over a year ago I was in Japan experiencing the famous apples of the Aomori region), so decided that a good apple dessert would have to […]

Happy Friday Pie Day my friends! (And how is it possible that it is already September?!?) I am both loving and hating having my older girls back in school. I love it because it lends a bit more structure to our days and gives them more opportunities to see friends, but I hate it because […]

During summer I always find myself wanting to be outside and out doing stuff, rather than stuck in the kitchen, which is kind of ironic, considering how much I love all of the fresh summer produce. There’s just too much fun to be had, and to be honest, […]

Last year I worked on a recipe for chocolate chip cookies that were gluten-free and Paleo. After many rounds of cooking and tweaking, I finally had a cookie that I loved and so did my family. I said that it was probably my favorite chocolate chip cookie recipe. Earlier this year I decided to take […]

We’re spending time with extended family tomorrow afternoon, and then my family and my in-laws are all coming over for Christmas Eve dinner. I love getting to be with everyone for the holidays, […]

Excitement is running high at our house. We are huge Star Wars fans at our house and are really looking forward to the new movie coming out next week. What better way to celebrate than with pie? So I whipped up a pie inspired by a character we all love to hate: Darth Vader. I […]
