Teaching a Two Year Old to Bake

This week I taught my daughter to bake! Kind of… I learned a lot more about myself than I did my daughter when I started teaching her how to bake. The first thing is, I really need to work on my patience. It was almost embarrassing listening to myself and how aggravated I got for …

My Apple and Blueberry Pie: A 6.5

Note: This isn’t a recipe/walkthrough. I kind of shy away from the food critic label, for multiple reasons. We’re all food critics in our own way. So in some shape or form, we’re always judging what we eat, whether it’s out at a restaurant or in our own homes. I never have any intention on …

Chocolate Chip Pancakes With Peanut Butter Sauce

So this is my typical pancake recipe which is mostly the Simple But Perfect Pancake recipe from King Arthur’s Baking Companion. That recipe calls for the following: 1.5 cups of flour, 2 Tbsp sugar, 2 tsp baking powder, 3/4 tsp salt, 3 Tbsp melted butter, 2 large eggs, 10 ounces (1.25 cup) milk, and 2 …

Back and Better than Ever!

I fully realize it’s been a literal year since I wrote my last blog post. No seriously, look below. I’ve been busy with many things, as we all tend to get from time to time in life. I’m not here to promise that I’ll write a blog post every number of days (or weeks). My …

Top Ten Tuesday: Video Games With Food

I love food, and I love video games. So it’s time to put together a list that combines these two loves. Whether your character is eating the food or throwing the food, video games have done some interesting things with cuisine. It wasn’t until today I had to really put some thinking into just how …

Top Ten Tuesday: Chocolate Candy Bars

I had a candy bar earlier so I decided this should be the subject of my next Top Ten Tuesday. I decided to go only with candy bars that contain chocolate, I’ll do a non-chocolate (and obviously inferior) list of candy bars at a later time. 10. Milky Way Midnight – I’m a dark chocolate …

Top Ten Tuesday: Talenti Gelato

I was going to write a about a very popular ice cream brand for my Top Ten Tuesday today, but they recently decided to get a bit too political with a new flavor, so I decided to take my business elsewhere. Instead, Talenti, a great company which makes amazing gelato and sorbetto gets to be …

Top Ten Tuesday: Childhood Breakfast Cereals

I had this idea to do a Top Ten Tuesday and I was set to write this up yesterday until I heard that the first shipment of my book arrived at RiverRun Bookstore. It kind of fell apart after that. Anyways, here is your delayed Top Ten Tuesday. Today’s top ten is my top ten …

Food Truck Day!!!

So last Saturday we went to Dover Food Truck Day, and thankfully the weather mostly held off, though it was windy and a bit dreary out. We had a great time; but, it was a pretty long day, especially with the baby and waiting in lines. Waiting in lines…that was really the biggest problem here …
