These may be my new favorite wine o’clock snack. For serious. Can anything make you feel more adult and grown up than a glass of crisp delicious wine and a few homemade nibbles to go with it? I found this recipe for Cheese Herb Crisps on Sargento’s website and immediately knew I’d be making it …

Last year, I got to visit King Arthur Flour’s Baking Education Center with a slew of other bloggers. I’d never met any of them before, but there’s something about baking together that will make a group of folks instantly feel like family. Fiona from A Boston Food Diary is one of the bloggers I got …
If you’re reading this, you most likely like to dabble in the art (or science) of baking. And if you’re into baking, I hope you know all about King Arthur Flour and why they’re the best flour for consistant results, in my opinion. The big news in baking right now? King Arthur Flour has created …

Sometimes inspiration comes in the form of the desperate need not to waste food. Sure, I could throw those bananas in the freezer, but there they would languish, forgotten, until they become freezer burnt beyond all recognition. As I was baking up treats for the Great American Bake Sale I looked around my kitchen and …
This past Saturday, a few other bloggers and myself put on the central New Jersey chapter of the Share Our Strength Great American Bake Sale. What is the Great American Bake Sale, you ask? Well, it all starts with the fact that 1 in 5 children go hungry every day in America, one of the …
James and I are huge fans of brinner. This hybrid of breakfast and dinner, brinner typically means we’re having bacon and eggs or breakfast tacos around 8 p.m. One of the highlights of brinner for me is that typically it takes little to no effort to accomplish, and we’re always left feeling happy and full. …
This giveaway is now closed. Congratulations to Sharon O.! Sharon, I hope you enjoy all that wonderful coffee! I never cease to think of how blessed I am to have fallen head over heels in love with Green Mountain Coffee. Little did I know when we bought our Keurig back in 2007 that before …
