We were in serious need of some cookies last night, and Dave found this Martha recipe floating around. The cookies were fantastic!! Seriously, it’s all I could do to keep myself from sitting around eating them all day.
So, despite [...]

Not so much about the cold weather (at least not since yesterday and the day before..and cold is for sure relative here), but we did go apple and pumpkin picking this weekend, as promised! We had a big group of people this year, and it was a blast!

As promised..a weekly squash feature for fall! I love squash. They’re easy to cook, and you can pair them with basically anything to add fall flair to a meal. You could even (gasp) branch out and incorporate them INTO your dish. ..but I don’t.
This week’s squash is BUTTERCUP SQUASH.
Prior to cutting [...]

It’s finally fall in Arizona! At least..yesterday’s high was below 90. It’s going to go back up, but I’m hopeful that it’ll remain cool for a while soon. My busy schedule should calm down a bit after this week, hopefully lending to some relaxation, knitting, and REAL baking. In the meantime? [...]
