Spring Salad

May 17th, 2017Tina2 Comments

I don’t like naming a recipe after a season because no one but you knows what that really means. However any other title that I came up with was just too dang long and I don’t like that even more. This is a Caprese salad with lettuce, chickpeas, and pasta with a balsamic vinaigrette dressing. See what I mean? It’s a mouthful. Now that tomatoes and basil are in season around here I’ve deemed this a Spring salad. You can call it what you like, but at the end of the day it’s a bowl full of deliciousness and that’s …

My Favorite Recipes

May 10th, 2017Tina0 Comments

One of the most frequently asked questions that I get is “what are your favorite recipes?” In case you might be wondering the same, I’ve put together a list of my top favorite recipes of all time so far (in no particular order) with some photos that you’ve never seen before. I have so many favorites that narrowing it down to just these few was very difficult. Chocolate Chip Pound Cake. Need I say more? Fudgy Brownies. These are hands down the best brownies ever. Ever. This has been my go-to brownie recipe for over 10 years. Italian Bread. Is there …

Small Batch Banana Muffins

May 3rd, 2017Tina2 Comments

What do you do when you have one overly ripe banana left and it’s gotten too gross looking to eat? You make a small batch of banana muffins! A batch of four muffins is the perfect amount for me and my sister. If you’re like me then you already have all of the ingredients on hand, even that handy dandy last banana that’s been sitting on the counter begging to be used. You don’t even have a lot of dirty dishes to wash when you’re done. That may sound silly but sometimes I’ll skip a recipe if it looks like …

Triple Peanut Butter Blondies

April 28th, 2017Tina0 Comments

The more peanut butter the better, right? I’ve made thick peanut butter blondies and I’ve made peanut butter blondies with chocolate candies. Both of them are amazing, but these triple peanut butter ones are my favorite, by far. Yup, I said triple. All three recipes start with the same peanut butter blondie base. Do you know what that means? I’ve got a good thing going here. However, each recipe has its own twist. The blondie base is so versatile. I mean, hello, it’s a chewy peanut butter cookie in a bar form. Nothing about that sucks. These blondies are loaded with peanut butter. Really, really, loaded. You’ve …

Currently Craving

Happy Wednesday! I haven’t shared a non recipe post in a while so I thought I’d mention a random bunch of stuff that I’ve been into lately. Sneakers. I’ve been eyeing these Adidas’ Superstar sneakers since last year, but I was hesitant to buy them because they remind me of my high school days. (Yes, I’m dating myself.) With some reservations I finally bought them last week. Guess what? I’m obsessed with them! They are comfy and they go with almost any outfit. They come in several colors but I chose the all white ones. Pineapples. It’s about that time of …
