Over the next few days we are going to have the coldest weather we've had all winter, which means I plan to make lots of cozy soups. Growing up in Chicago and going to college in New York, I'm unphased by winter weather. That being said, we have five kids now so I need to keep them entertained in all kinds of weather! Typically I fall into the camp of belief that there is no such thing as bad weather just bad clothing, but with an 8 month old I do need to be aware of those chillier temps. We ... continue reading...
Kale and Brussels Salad with Bacon
Oh how I love a good hearty salad! And while I love a mixed green salad, sometimes if you're entertaining you want a salad that holds up longer with a good dressing.

We have had a few favorite pasta recipes over the years, but I really wanted to commit to making the best ever baked ziti. A pasta recipe we love from a cookbook uses sundried tomatoes and balsamic vinegar in the sauce and those two things really take this recipe to the next level. With a hearty meat sauce, creamy ricotta filling, and a whole pound of noodles, this is a recipe to make for so ... continue reading...
Chocolate Peppermint Shortbread
It's the final day of cookie week for 2023! I love shortbread as a Christmas cookie because it's so classic and perfect with an afternoon cup of tea. Shortbread isn't overly sweet, but paired with the chocolate and peppermint it has the perfect texture and subtle sweetness. This chocolate peppermint shortbread can be baked in a square pan and cut into rectangle cookies as shown here, in a round pan and cut like a cake or pie, or refrigerated in long rolls and made as a slice-and-bake ... continue reading...
