Cinco de Cupcake: Margarita Cupcakes

So I think one of the best things about America is that we can make a holiday out of anything. I don’t particularly like St. Patrick’s Day or Halloween and Cinco de Mayo is another one of those days that I didn’t understand until I was older that it was just an excuse to drink! [...]

Sun and Fun: Lemon Kiss Cupcakes with Whipped Cream Frosting

Ready for a super easy cupcake recipe that will get you a zillion compliments at a summer brunch. Or a party that you wear a sun dress to. Or maybe even late at night when you’re in your PJ’s. I’m a little tired. Amongst the final projects for the end of the semester, I’m a [...]

Summertime and the Living is Meyer Lemon Whipping Cream Pound Cake

Lemons are the perfect ingredient for summer desserts. Pound cake, however, seems like too heavy for a dessert in the sweltering heat. Add lemons and you’ve got a pretty great compromise. This cake is super duper delicious and, in my opinion, is so worth the $12 bundt pan- I promise! I am so looking forward [...]

Looking Forward to Lemons: Sneak Peek for this Week

I’m fairly certain that I have started all of the past few blog posts with the same ol’- “I’m sorry for being lame at posting- I’ll get better, I promise!” But things have only spiraled into things being due and projects taking over my life and looking for a new place to live for next [...]

Sweet Things: Tips for the Perfect Chocolate Chip Cookie

So I haven’t been as active on the blog front lately, I admit. A close family member of mine passed away this last week and my attention has been kind of diverted from blogging. Chocolate Chip cookies, to me, are a sort of comfort food. My mom makes them with oatmeal and that gives them [...]

I’m Fondue of You: Cupcake Fondue

So this semester has been crazy crazy busy. I should be working on things for Mr. Food, but I deemed this post more important, obviously. Spring Break is right around the corner but it says, “You have to earn it first! Nonstop busy-ness before a week with a puppy and the beach!”. What a cruel [...]

Deep Fried Love: Toasty Raviolis

My weekend was wonderful. It started off with a crazy win for FSU Basketball against Virginia Tech and ended with a fantastic wine-filled night with friends. It was great just getting back to the things that matter most to me: my friends. I made zucchini bread, somewhat made up for old times with a friend, [...]

Breakfast at Noon

Food is just so great because it is the ultimate get-together. Everybody likes eating, everybody likes good food and then everybody wins. It’s an infinite win-win! My Saturday morning/afternoon consisted of a clean kitchen, southern biscuits and the best slow cooked eggs I have ever tasted. My roommates and I got together, put on a [...]

Forever Friends: How Not to be Pathetic on Valentine’s Day

Not only is it my dad’s birthday which makes the day less about romance and such, I like to think of Valentine’s Day as friend-appreciation day Every Valentines day, I like to make little gifties for my friends, just to [...]
