Way back in the spring, Easter-time to be specific, I made a ham with an improvised pineapple honey glaze that turned out to be a show-stopper. You don’t have to wait for Easter, though. Make it for Christmas! For New Years! For Jimmy’s birthday! For any ol’ time you decide you neeeeeed a glaze that’s …

Thanksgiving be coming, y’all! Like I had to remind you. What kinda pies are you making? Pumpkin? Check. Chocolate Pecan? Check. Pie in a Jar? Um, say what? To be clear: this has nothing to do with mason jars; I think we all know how I feel about food in a jar. ~ A gentle …
WAKE UP! You’re totally not dreaming, but these bars are what dreams are made of…sugar and spice and mmmmm, everything nice. I know you’re starting to think about your holiday baking. You’ve got cookies out the wazoo (yeouch!) But do you have an easy and elegant recipe that you’ll want to hoard for yourself as …
I first wrote about these cookies last year and I wanted to share them again, because they are that good. When Boy was a kiddo, I made these filled cookies every year for Halloween.

When I think of French bread I suddenly speak with an extremely embarrassing French accent and imagine myself in a beret. Oui Oui! ~ugh~ If you have never had homemade French bread, let me weep a little for you (yes, again in the French accent). If you have never made homemade bread of any kind, …
You’ve spent all day perfecting your light and airy cupcakes, that buttery pie crust, those dense amazeballs brownies, but are you hip to the last step in your perfect perfection: how to store your baked goods? This step often gets overlooked in baking. How you store your delectable creations can mean the difference between …
OMT has been baking with buttermilk again, y’all. It’s so Southern, don’t you think? When I first found this recipe, I immediately printed it out. Then, I promptly forgot about it. I blame my peri-brain fog. When I ran across it again, I made a note of the ingredients, ran to the store for buttermilk, …
Roasted French green beans sounds so, so, French, oui? I love a roasted veggie, no doubt, but have found the veggies I’m not particularly fond of (like steamed green beans) are delicious when roasted. I’ll actually go back for seconds. Recently, on a trip to Boy’s, he made roasted asparagus, which I love any way …
Cake! Cake! Cake! I think by now we get it…CAKE! Gratuitous pic of CAKE: I love all things cake and know you do too. I love when I come across something new about cake, yet there are so few things that are new about cake. So, I was startled to come across a video that …
