dalreach house sandwiches
my maternal grandparents used to live in london, and every thanksgiving when they weren’t able to go back to the states they would travel up to scotland with all of their expat buddies and stay at a manor called dalreach house (pronounced dal-reek). they would enjoy the holiday amongst other texans, drinking scotch, eating too…
brownie crackle cookies
so i guess my food blog might turn into a desserts-only blog. well, at least for the duration of my pregnancy. i’m telling you, it’s ALL i crave. and i am OK with that. i hope you are too. i messed with this recipe a little bit, one i found over at the craving chronicles….
bourbon nectarine ice cream sundaes with pound cake croutons
ok, i know… i know. all i post these days are sweets. but honestly it’s ALL i can think about and all i ever want to eat these days. i’m pregnant. no judging. i made this last week for girls night and i’d like to say we all couldn’t shove it into our mouths fast enough,…
gingersnap cupcakes with vanilla bean cinnamon buttercream
these cupcakes are to-die-for, y’all. they also rivaled little she for top billing at her first birthday party. i made the mistake last time of making them in mini cupcake cups instead of the standard size. read: i ate way more than my share of these babies. dude, i was fighting people off most of…
cinnamon coffee cake
this coffee cake is is becoming my go-to for brunches and celebrations, one that will never fail and never fail to please a lot of people. also, one that will never fail to make me eat half of the pan and fight people off for a piece. it is perfectly moist and the thick crumb streusel…
itty bitty cinnamon rolls
this is genius. really. and i owe it all to a very, very old southern living cookbook that i thumbed through while staying at my dear friend, tanna’s house in okc. this recipe has come in handy a lot this summer when we are not home very often and our kitchen food supply is hilariously…
pear & blue cheese salad with champagne vinaigrette
this is such a refreshing summer salad and one that i crave often. maybe it’s the crisp pears. maybe it’s the creamy blue cheese. methinks it’s probably the sweet & tart champagne vinaigrette that marries so perfectly with everything. if possible, don’t substitute anything else for the champagne vinegar – it is so worth it….
homemade chewy granola bars
the little she loves them. i have been craving them like crazy (pregnancy does that to you, apparently). but store bought granola bars have so much unwanted junk in them, i wanted to make my own version. and when it comes down to it, it is WAY more cost effective to home-make your own. so…
mexican style roasted corn-on-the-cob
i haven’t always been the corn-on-the-cob’s number one fan, you might say. i like my corn to have a little sumthin’ goin’ on, if you know what i mean. so there i was, looking for a summer corn recipe that would light my fire. then the lights shone down from heaven and lit up this…
minted mandarin & strawberry coolers
summer is meant for relaxing out on the back deck with a cold drink in your hand. and this is becoming one of my new favorites. i made these for the little she’s 2nd birthday brunch party last weekend and they went pretty fast. they are simple (with only 3 ingredients) and super flavorful –…
pesto turkey burgers
ahhh, pesto. there isn’t much that i wouldn’t enjoy if it has pesto on it. the little she and i were on a road trip recently and we stopped at a friend’s house on the way for the night. my dear sweet friend made us a wonderful dinner that night (i seriously expected delivery pizza…
