These cookies are all about our old Kentucky home. Kentucky is pretty proud of its bourbon. And since moving to Oregon, I think we’ve thrown bourbon into more foods than we ever did back home. So far, whiskey cinnamon rolls are still my favorite bourbon-infused treat, but these cookies were pretty delicious too. I made…
blueberry oat bars.
Let’s talk about jam. Jam, jelly, preserves, whatever. Jam is the foundation of mine and Becca’s friendship. (For those of you who haven’t been following along, Becca and I are currently engaged in a very exciting 12 days of cookies baking extravaganza.) You see, when we met working at a summer camp near Seattle way…
monster cookies.
If my college experience could be wrapped up in one food, it would be this cookie. This was the cookie that I believe allowed my college roommates to grant me pardon when my art projects took over the living room (because yes, I was, at one point, a lousy, untalented art major), when I insisted…
peanut butter buckeye pretzels.
Okay, so today’s cookies were awesome. And probably not good for those of us who lack self-control when it comes to chocolate and peanut butter. It’s been about 24 hours since I made these, and I’ve consumed at least 10. Part of that was stress eating. You see, we’ve been watching Chuck on Netflix. I…
coffee toffee thumbprint cookies.
It’s that time of year again, folks. Cookie time. Each year, my pal Becca and I bake up 12 different cookies in celebration of the holiday season. We started doing this several years ago alongside the Food Network’s 12 Days of Christmas Cookies, but after discovering that we had no interest in baking a lot…
apple pie.
I think we can officially call ourselves Oregonians. It has been raining non-stop here for days, but we didn’t let that stop us from visiting Detering Orchards for some seriously wet apple picking. We took our pals Jordan and Megan along for the adventure, and the four of us picked those apples like it was…
whiskey cinnamon rolls.
Eric is back, folks. And although he’s suffering from some serious jet lag (i.e. he falls asleep almost any time he’s in a seated position), it is SO good to have him home! In an attempt to keep him from ever leaving the country without me again, I whipped up one of Eric’s favorite treats…
veggie tater tots.
I needed some veggies today. It could be because I’ve been eating pizza every night since making an enormous batch on Sunday. And while I did put a few veggies on that pizza (I can call broccoli a topping when Eric’s gone), I wanted something different. I had a sweet potato, kale, and a few…
quinoa and berries.
What did we learn today? Quinoa doesn’t photograph well. For real. It looks gross. Particularly when combined with yogurt. But we’ll get to that later. As you know, we’ve been eating berries like they are going out of style (or like they will start molding quickly, which is far more likely). We’ve been working them…
fruit pizza.
Bad news. The peaches we bought during our fruit binge yesterday (which were not yet ripe when I put them on the counter yesterday afternoon), completely rotted and molded overnight. Before we got to eat any of them. Total bummer. We pulled ourselves together and made some fruit pizzas with some of our zillion berries,…
spring salad with roasted asparagus, shallots, and feta.
It has been far too long since we’ve shared any recipes around here. It could be because we scarf our food down so quickly that I never think to take a photo. We’re working on slowing down a little. Hopefully summer will help with that. We’ve also been trying to increase our veggie intake as…
homemade nutella.
Saturdays are my long run days. Yesterday’s long run was 9 miles. Nine miles, people. And the thought that I am eventually going to run almost 3 times that distance is mind-boggling. But I suppose that at some point in the future (hopefully within the next 3 months), that distance is going to seem attainable….
cashew coffee biscotti.
This is my final cookie of the year. I’ll finally put away the cookie sheets, the flours, the sugars. And I’ll finally stop eating a cookie after every meal. Today’s cookie may have been my favorite of the whole bunch. These were perfect to have around during Eric’s finals week, as they pair perfectly with…
fancy schmancy s’mores.
So, it was bound to happen. With 6 different cookies, something had to go terribly wrong with at least one. And that was today. I guess I should’ve known better than to get a cookie recipe from Food & Wine. After all, their photo of the finished product showcased the cookies next to a glass…
grandad danner’s favorite peanut butter cookies.
I’m pretty sure my body is about 50% peanut butter, 30% coffee, and 20% apples. As I mentioned in my first day of cookie madness, when I was selecting recipes for 6 different cookies, I found myself pinning every recipe involving peanut butter. Since moving to Oregon, I think I’ve eaten more peanut butter than…
