Brown Butter Banana Bread

So I’m currently at the airport. I just finished the best week of my life. What did I do, you ask? Well, I’ll make a post about it, so you’ll just have to wait until then. Also, this is the best banana bread ever.  No joke.  Enjoy, dolls! BROWN BUTTER BANANA BREAD From the ever-fabulous Joy […]

Vegan Cinnamon Swirl Pancakes

So I’ve got a couple of things I want to talk with you guys about today.  Daft Punk and these chummy pancakes. Let’s talk about Daft Punk first. So I’ve known about Daft Punk for quite a while (upon a smidge of researching, I found that they’ve been around since the 1990s), but for the […]

Cinnamon Rolls

Christmas came and I must say, it was pretty spectacular.  It was simple, but I like simple.  Just us and our lovely little animals enjoying each other’s company while enjoying Christmas specials (A Christmas Story!), munching on special treats (cinnamon rolls, anybody?), and staying up into the wee hours of the morning knitting Christmas gifts.  […]

Cinnamon Sugar Popovers

THE FOLLOWING CONTAINS SPOILERS.  READ AT YOUR OWN RISK. I watched Day of the Doctor today.  Hello!  Amazing. Before we dive headlong into that, though, let’s talk about everything leading up to it. To begin on a personal note, I have always been a wildly avid Doctor Who fan.  The Doctor has seen me through so many […]

Heidelbeerkuchen

Lately I have been branching out in my musical tastes.  My usuals have always been Coldplay (duh), Muse (smashing), Kimbra (so darling), Florence + The Machine (empowering), and the Killers (let’s get hype).  Nowadays I have branched out a bit more.  BOY (the Hamburg-based band) has definitely been my go-to, as well as Of Monsters and Men, Bon […]

Green Brilliance Smoothie

So today’s post is a bit of a revamp of the Banana and Kale smoothie that I posted sometime last year.  This one has a lot more to offer than the last one did and is bursting with more greens, healthy bacteria, and a boost of protein. Whenever I drink this smoothie, I feel like […]

Goldenberry Chia Bars

When I was reading Fellowship of the Ring, I was immediately drawn to Goldenberry.  She was just such an organic and angelic character that I found reminiscent of the faerie queens I had read about when I was younger.  The name Goldenberry also brought to mind a delightfully sweet and tangy golden berry.  At the time, […]

Cherry Almond Galette

CHERRY ALMOND GALETTE Slightly adapted from Sara Forte at Sprouted Kitchen, http://www.sproutedkitchen.com/home/2013/6/9/cherry-almond-galette.html.  I could imagine this being equally delicious served with some crème fraiche infused with vanilla and almond extracts and gingerly sweetened with some clover honey. 110 grams / 3/4 cup unbleached all purpose flour 70 grams / 1/2 cup spelt flour 1 tablespoon unrefined cane […]
