Overnight Cinnamon Rolls

July 14, 2011

If you were on Twitter Tuesday night, you may have noticed I spent the entire night baking and prepping breakfast for my first meeting with my new department staff at work the following morning.

Banana Coconut Muffins

June 23, 2011

Brown banana strikes again!

Eep! (Before) It’s a testament to our growing “foodie-ism” that we’re very quickly growing out of our kitchen, particularly the pantry.

Breakfast on the Third Snow Day…

February 3, 2011

We are on our unprecedented third snow day. I didn’t even know it was possible for adults without children to have snow days. Of course we’ve been working from home, but still AT HOME. Although I’ve enjoyed doing things on my own schedule, I know now that I could never work from home full-time, or [...]
