I remember doing a project on Australia when I was in middle school. I think middle school might be the time when you start realizing that there’s a world outside of your own little bubble, and that maybe people do different things outside of your tri-county area. And while I’m pretty sure that I always…
jamwiches.
Welcome to another day of cookies! Since my first day of cookies involved peanut butter, it’s only appropriate that today’s cookie involves jelly. Marionberry jelly, in this case. For those of you who aren’t privileged to dine on this delectable west coast treat, marionberry jam is the best jam in all the land. I first…
salted dark chocolate and peanut butter cookies.
It’s that time of year again, folks! Each year, my dear friend, Becca, and I tackle the Food Network’s 12 Days of Christmas Cookies, baking at least 6 varieties each. Sometimes this turned out awesome (thanks to any recipe from Paula Deen), and sometimes it was a huge disaster (I’m looking at you, Alton Brown)….
cinnamon apple scones.
It’s kind of a British day in the Ringer homestead. Perhaps the gloomy weather is bringing about feelings of England. I’ve never been to England, but obviously I’ve seen enough movies to get the idea that it can get pretty gloomy and rainy, which is pretty much Oregon in November (of course, as I am…
nutella cheesecake for two.
So, it’s raining. And unlike everything that Oregonians claim about the rain around here, it is not just drizzling. It is pouring down rain. I went on a run this morning, fully expecting to enjoy a light Oregon sprinkle, but it full out poured down rain for the entire run. I literally rung out my…
azteca salad.
Some days you just need a win. Like today, when the super simple bread recipe didn’t rise (darn you, Pinterest, for getting my hopes up for some no knead, no effort bread). And when the fabric paint washed out of my art project when I put it in the washer (even though fabric paint is…
peach upside-down cake.
I have an obsession with fruit. I tend to get attached to the current fruit of the season, and then I’m incredibly sad when that short-lived season ends. Perhaps that’s why winter is so hard for me. No fresh (in season) fruit. But that’s why summer is the bomb. The farmer’s market is exploding with…
watermelon salad.
I’ll be honest with you here and say that I spent the majority of my life not enjoying watermelon. I know, right? What’s that all about? One magical day last summer, I ate an incredible cube of watermelon and my life has never been the same. It’s just so good. How on earth was I…
oreo cupcakes.
I love my husband because he will watch Gilmore Girls with me when it’s Monday, and I’m tired, and all I want to do is pretend we live in Stars Hollow. And I love Gilmore Girls because Lorelai and Rory talk at the same speed as my sister and I. And they love to eat….
strawberry pretzel salad.
We started this week with a gallon of strawberries (from our weekend in Clarksville). And you know that strawberries can’t just sit around for long without getting super nasty and squishy. As of Wednesday afternoon, our strawberries have either been consumed plain (although, what’s plain about a strawberry?) or baked into something awesome. Let’s talk…
apple gruyere panini.
Have I ever expressed to you how much I love our panini press? It is one of my favorite appliances of all time. When you own a panini maker, it’s like you’re eating at Panera every day. We go through phases where we use this brilliant piece of machinery every day. And then it finally…
spinach quesadillas.
First of all, I want you to know that I’m typing this post on an iPad. Just typing that sentence broke the record for the most words I’ve ever typed on this thing. Call me old school, but I really enjoy the click of the keys on my laptop. You can also call me old…
fudgy chocolate chip toffee bars.
This should come as no surprise to anyone, but I love chocolate. I may or may not live a life controlled by my sweet tooth. And it’s time to face the fact that Pinterest is an enabler in my life of addiction. Also to blame? Tastespotting, which I believe led me to this particular chocolate…
shrimp tacos.
Happy Monday, folks. I’m pleased to report that the sun is shining on this Monday afternoon in Lexington. After a weekend where I’m not sure the sun even rose, blue skies are a welcome reward, even if they had to come along with the first day of the work week. So let’s jump back to…
peanut butter banana smoothie.
There are just a few things I’m excited about today: Old-school TV shows: Okay, so I just discovered that The Wonder Years is on Netflix. I haven’t seen this show since elementary school. I like to think of it as the Boy Meets World of the 80’s (set in the 60’s), you know? Plus, how…
