Meal Planning and Meal Prep on White Table

Most of us have the best of intentions when it comes to cooking at home more and eating out less. (Or avoiding the drive-through on the way to or from work!) But unless we give ourselves some practical tools, meal prep can seem like a huge chore. I’m simplifying it, making meal prep approachable, and giving some real-life solutions that will help make meal planning and meal prep as effortless as possible.…

How to Make Natural Purple, Teal (Blue-Green), & Fuchsia (Purple-Pink) Food Colorings {Using the Red Cabbage Method & the Blueberry Method}

June 27, 2013 by Faith 27 Comments

If you follow me on Instagram, you might already know that yesterday I made natural food coloring. This is because I recently got the idea in my head that I absolutely had to make blue frosting. I’ll tell you all about why I needed it soon, but for now, here is a big hint…...

December 20, 2012 by Faith 283 Comments

In some cases, you might want to try something new, but have no idea where to look for ingredients…...

Whipping Up a Tasting Platter on a Whim

November 7, 2012 by Faith 16 Comments

Eggplant Dip, one of the many dips that might be found in my fridge at any given time. (Recipe can be found in my book!) I love taking a peek inside someone’s fridge. I’m not the only one who is secretly (ok, maybe not so secretly anymore) a little bit nosy about what other people like to eat, am I? Come on, admit it, you like it too, lol....

How to Make Butternut Squash Purée

October 17, 2012 by Faith 15 Comments

When I was a kid, every Thanksgiving I tried to hide from my mom the fact that my plate was bereft of squash. (Not veggies, mind you, just squash…the nemesis to my 10-year-old self.) My mom didn’t miss a beat though. Before I knew what had happened, she’d have spooned a “no thank you” helping onto my plate that to me felt very much like a “thank you, I loved it so much I think I’ll take seconds”-sized helping. Now I do love squash and don’t mind a second helping....

How to Roast Chestnuts

December 30, 2011 by Faith 25 Comments

Mike and I have a strange Christmas tradition.  Every year during the week between Christmas and New Year’s Day, we watch The Godfather and roast chestnuts.  I’m not sure how or why this became our tradition (as far as I know The Godfather has no ties to Christmas), and I have no idea what the relationship between the movie and roasted chestnuts is, but Mike always insists on chestnuts along with the movie.  And so, because I love him (and roasted chestnuts), I oblige him....

Concord Grape Jam

October 30, 2011 by Faith 15 Comments

This is part two (here’s part one) of what I did with my Concord grapes, and I wanted to get this recipe posted before Concord season is too much of a distant memory.  Eating this jam makes me wish for a jar of homemade roasted peanut butter and a loaf of fresh baked sourdough bread.  PB&J with a grown-up flair…and I’d be one happy girl. Instead, I found some fresh rosemary bread at my local grocery store (thank you, Wegmans, for having a fantastic in-store bakery!) which was a lovely pairing with the jam....

Natural Solutions for Daily Needs

August 30, 2011 by Faith 30 Comments

These easy natural solutions for daily needs are made from things you probably already have on hand! Brown sugar exfoliates and olive oil moisturizes in a homemade scrub that smells like cookies. For a while now I’ve been a big fan of natural solutions for daily needs. Call it herb lore, home remedies, or just good housekeeping, it’s been going on since long before our grandparents or our grandparents’ grandparents were alive. What I love is that once you start to explore this, you’ll open up a whole new world of uses for what are thought of as everyday kitchen items (that you probably already […]...

Eid Mubarak & My Macaron Story

November 16, 2010 by Faith 73 Comments

Eid Mubarak!  I want to wish everyone a very happy Eid al-Adha!  You might remember that for Eid al-Fitr (which is the Eid celebration at the end of Ramadan) I made Syrian Ice Cream, which was flavored with lovely things like pistachio and rose.  As a play on those lovely flavors I wanted to remake them into another dessert, Pistachio Macarons with Rose Buttercream.  I chose macarons because they’re special and very celebratory, and besides, with all my failed attempts and macaron-making woes, I thought it was high time I mastered the recipe.  Without further ado, I give you my macaron story....

The other day Dan and I were at an antique store a The other day Dan and I were at an antique store and we happened to find one of the vendors who was putting out #vintage #valentinesday cards she had found in one of her storage units. 💌 These are from the 1930s/1940s! She was a third generation antique dealer and she said she still has several full rooms to sort through! (I love the treasure hunt of that, it’s like exploring in your grandparents’ attic.) Anyway, I had to buy a couple cards because they’re completely charming. #happyvalentinesday, lovelies. 🥰 #valentines #romantic #flatlay #valentinesmood #vintageprops #propstyling #propstylist #photography
#ad If you’re looking for a romantic meal to mak #ad If you’re looking for a romantic meal to make for your sweetheart for Valentine’s Day this weekend, you’ve come to the right place! This meal is easy, fast (no one will guess it whips up in less than 15 minutes!), and impressive. And soooo good. 🥰
 
What’s on the menu? Pan seared chicken in a savory cream sauce. Steamed green beans. And Fresh Blends Ready to Cook Idaho Potatoes!
 
Let’s talk sides first. Steamed green beans are easy, and they round out the meal well. Or you could go with broccoli if you want.
 
The real star of the side dish show are these flavorful @eagleeyeproduce potatoes! They’re family grown in Idaho. Fresh-cut, never cooked, never frozen, with no preservatives. And they cook up easily with a one-step cooking process (just 8 minutes in the microwave, or you can do them on the stovetop to get them crispy). Check out their website to find their store locator to see where they’re available near you --> https://eagleeyeproduce.com/store-locator/
 
And now the chicken! Inspired by the famous “Marry Me Chicken”, this recipe checks all the right boxes and has all the bells and whistles. Chicken cutlets cook up quick on the stovetop, and then a luscious cream sauce flavored with garlic, fresh herbs, and sundried tomatoes cooks in the same skillet. Take a look at the recipe in the comments below.
 
Who says a beautiful, romantic meal has to be complicated, right? ❤️

This small batch recipe of Red Velvet Cupcakes is This small batch recipe of Red Velvet Cupcakes is the perfect dessert for you and your sweetheart this Valentine's Day, and it's even more special because it was made for a cause. ❤️

This is the 5th year in a row that Julie from @thelittlekitchn has organized the Cookies for Kid's Cancer Valentine's Event to raise money and awareness for childhood cancer, and I'm honored to be part of it.

Cancer is the top cause of death of children by disease in the U.S. There are 40,000 U.S. children actively battling cancer right now. And the National Cancer Institute’s budget for childhood cancer is less than 4%.⁣

You can help make a difference by donating to @cookies4kids. Our goal is to raise at least $3000. Thank you to @OXO, @Mediavine and @Dixie_Crystals who have each pledged to match our donations raised through this campaign up to $3000!⁣

I developed this recipe last year on a whim one af I developed this recipe last year on a whim one afternoon when I really just wanted a slice of chocolate cake. 🎉🙈 I wasn't going to post the recipe, but it was pretty and one thing led to another and I styled and snapped a few pictures. It really is crazy delicious and it whips up in just 10 minutes in the microwave (and it has just 5g net carbs per serving!). And so here it is, lol.
