  • Listen - it’s been snowing 🌨 and gross allllll day long here, so I just had to bring all the brightness into the kitchen with this golden beet and blood orange salad with pistachios. Was out of goat cheese, that would have been delicious too. Kinda sad about that, but this was still my jam today. Stay warm, chilly-willys! . . . . . . . #onmytable #verilymoment #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #mycanonstory #firstweeat #fromscratch #seasonalfood #tv_stilllife #f52grams #petitejoys @food #hautecuisines #foodstyling #foodwindwomen #tastespotting #foodfluffer #eatseasonal #gimmeabeet #bloodorange
  • Happy Sunday, lovelies! I made this tangy blood orange loaf cake with a blood orange glaze his weekend, and I.JUST.CANNOT.BELIEVE this luscious pink color. To quote Sir Mix A Lot, “I’m hooked and I can’t stop staring 😲 oh baby, I wanna get wit‘cha and take yo pictah!” And so that’s what I did. • Have a wonderful start to your week! • • • • • • #onmytable #foodandwinewomen #rslove #mywilliamssonoma #kitchenbowl #hautecuisines #firstweeat #foodtographyschool #fromscratch #tv_stilllife @food #f52grams #petitejoys #bloodorange #frommyoven #imsomartha #sweetlife #homebaker #thebakefeed #thesugarfiles #pgminseason #bareaders #beautifulcuisines
  • Happy Sunday, sweet thangs! Speaking of sweet thangs, you might have seen on my stories a super zoomed-in photo of a new first for me: MACARONS! Certainly not the first time I’ve eaten them (hello, @maisonladuree, you may remember my face from my repeat visits a couple years ago 🙊) but my first time making ‘em, and they almost look legit! These are mint chocolate macarons - the vanilla flavoured cookies are stuffed with a chocolate mint buttercream. I’d say I cracked it with my first go, and I’m pretty chaffed! (Clearly I’ve been watching plenty of @britishbakeoff and practicing my British-isms, right @grace.gracious?!) 😊 • Anywho, I must give a HUGE shoutout 🙌🏼🙌🏼 and big thanks to @cloudykitchen who’s amazing detailed blog posts and tips on macarons were life savers to help keep my sanity in check. She’s right - macarons aren’t difficult, bu they can be finicky, and there are really really important steps to follow closely. Thank you, Erin! I can’t wait to practice with more fun flavors and one day perfect these lil gems. • I hope you all enjoy the rest of your weekend, and that you are warm and toasty wherever you may be! Unless you’re in the Southern Hemisphere, in which case I hope you are remaining cool near a beach 🏝 😎 • • • • • • #onmytable #foodandwinewomen #rslove #mywilliamssonoma #kitchenbowl #hautecuisines #firstweeat #foodtographyschool #fromscratch #tv_stilllife @food #f52grams #petitejoys #frommyoven #imsomartha #sweetlife #homebaker #thebakefeed #thesugarfiles #bareaders #beautifulcuisines
  • Celebrating #nationalbananabreadday with these mini banana 🍌bundts! You can find the recipe for these on my blog if you search ‘banana muffins’ - I just baked them in a mini bundt pan instead of a muffin pan. Same baking time and everything. Exceeeeept oooooone small surprise ingredient in this version: 2 tablespoons of ground espresso! Adds a rich nuttiness offsetting the floral cardamom. And if autocorrect changes the word bundt to ‘Bundy a’ one more time, I’m going to scream 😤. Okay goodnight, sleep tight, don’t get frostbite!🥶🥶🥶 • • • • • • #onmytable #foodandwinewomen #rslove #mywilliamssonoma #mycanonstory #firstweeat #foodtographyschool #fromscratch #tv_stilllife @food #f52grams #petitejoys #frommyoven #instabake #sweetlife #homebaker
  • Happy Sunday, lovelies! I know I've been absent for a while here, but the beginning of 2019 brought a few fun hurdles and new challenges, and I'm so happy to say I'm finally settling down a bit! On Jan 2nd I started a new job at a new company. They are so very wonderful - all super smart, full of energy, and they've been nothing but kind and welcoming to me. • On top of the usual day-job chaos, I came down with ANOTHER head cold after the awful “Early December Disaster” (its official name, where I had to✈️ across the country, and I thought my ears were going to explode, while I desperately yet unsuccessfully tried to make the Bozo the Clown look fashionable). This time, I managed to have EVEN WORSE sinus/ear congestion. I'm definitely feeling so much better, but the residual congestion left me pretty much deaf in my right 👂🙉 like, I can't hear my husband when he's speaking to me in his normal voice. 🗣 NOT FUN. I'm really hoping my right ear pops in next day or so, because I really don't want to add "go to Urgent Care" to my list of things to do on Tuesday🙄Lastly, I managed to pass this lovely cold along to my poor hubs. He's been under the covers all day sleeping off and on for the last 24 hours. 😞 So I've asked him a few times if I can bring him anything, and like a deaf old woman, I have to turn my head when he answers so he can speak into my left "good" ear. We are officially turning into Archie & Edith Bunker👴🏻👵🏼 • I've so missed posting on here lately, and since we’re rooting for the Saints right now, I thought this fun pic from Jan 1st when we enjoyed home-shucked fresh oysters couldn’t be more perfect. I have some big plans for this week and weekend that involve baking and lots of comfort food, especially since the temperatures require a heavy rotation of sweatpants, thick socks, and the wooliest itchiest sweaters. Stay warm and enjoy your Sunday evening, friends! #GoSaints ⚜️ • . . . . . . . #onmytable #verilymoment #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #mycanonstory #tv_stilllife #f52grams #petitejoys #foodwinewomen @food #firstweeat #hautecuisines #forkfeed #lifeandthyme #foodadventure
  • Hey lovelies, Happy Monday y’all! Life has been incredibly hectic lately so I haven’t photographed much, but I’ve been itching to, and so here I am! It’s been consistently in the 30s here in the northeast, so basically FREEZING 🥶 , and I ain’t ready for it. Despite the hostile winter weather tryin to beast on my favorite autumnal days 🙅🏻‍♀️, I managed to stay productive this weekend and even dinner-prepped a bit yesterday - this spicy Harissa Chicken recipe is on my blog, just search for ‘harissa chicken.’ It’s spicy and tangy, and this go round it’s a little sweet since I used sweet potatoes because I was out of regular potatoes. Still delish, still delish! • With all of the craziness I’ve been dealing with recently, the stress starting taking a bit of a toll on me. I was sick as a dog last week with the world’s worst head cold 🤧. I’m finally feeling much better now, but it reminded me just how much stress really can harm not only the mind but the body. So for the remainder of the year, I have resolved to slow down a bit, saying NO to unnecessary and frivolous activities, commitments and general spread-myself-too-thin-ness. This is the perfect time for some self-care and self-recentering, ensuring I am ready for the new year and new challenges I am soon to face. • One of those challenges is a new day-job. I’m still in the process of locking everything down, so I can’t share anything just yet, but I think it’s finally all coming together. I’ve been relying on lots of prayer and remembering that stressing myself out over it doesn’t help the situation, it only dulls me and makes me a wreck. And gives me nasty head colds. I’m finally seeing some light at the end of this tunnel, and lord, am I ready to exhale! 💆🏻‍♀️ • Have a wonderful week, my friends! 💕 . . . . . . . #onmytable #verilymoment #RSlove #mywilliamssonoma #mycanonstory #firstweeat #fromscratch #seasonalfood #tv_stilllife #f52grams #petitejoys @food #hautecuisines #foodstyling #darlingweekend #foodwindwomen #tastespotting #foodfluffer
