With 6 or so weeks still left in my pregnancy and it being the hottest part of the summer, I'm really enjoying a mocktail in the afternoon. The kids always want to be outside after naptime, but since I'm generally not in the mood to haul them anywhere in the car, we play in the backyard. They kick around the soccer ball, play in the water table, or take their diggers in the rocks, and I sit and sip a mocktail like this ginger raspberry mocktail. One of my favorite cocktails is a Moscow mule, and ... continue reading...
Raspberry Glazed Old Fashioned Doughnuts
When it comes to doughnuts, I usually want a chocolate one. Chocolate cake with chocolate frosting is my go-to. But then I tried the raspberry glazed old fashioned doughnut at a local doughnut shop and I was hooked.

Greek Tortilla Roll-Ups
This recipe for Greek tortilla roll ups is what I like to call a "non recipe." It's meant to inspire you to create an easy meal, but the ingredient measurements can be adjusted as you see fit!

Shrimp Caesar Salad
Caesar salads are great as a starter or side dish for a meal, but as an main course? You've just made yourself an easy dinner that will leave you wondering, "why don't I do that more often?" Making Caesar dressing from scratch is a breeze, even if you don't have anchovies (I leave them out of my dressing). Homemade croutons take this shrimp Caesar salad to the next level, and the shrimp are just a little bit spicy to pair with the creamy dressing. In fact, I make the dressing a little bit spicy ... continue reading...
Raspberry Lemon Cake
Happy birthday to me! I'm 32 years old today, and also happen to be 32 weeks pregnant this week with baby #4. Layer cakes are a lot of work to test, perfect, and photograph. But I like the tradition of posting a new cake recipe on my birthday. Last year I shared this Neapolitan layer cake, and this year I bring you raspberry lemon cake! Normally on my birthday I want a chocolate dessert, but this cake is so summery it's perfect for my summer birthday. This cake is also great for any spring or ... continue reading...
