Everyday Fare With Extraordinary Flair
This easy homemade Butterbeer Popcorn is inspired by Harry Potter with a butterscotch vanilla flavor and the sweet crunch of caramel popcorn.
I wish all year could be autumn.
I’d be bundled up in a cozy scarf drinking apple cider and eating roasted winter squash every day. And that’s not even to mention how much I love car rides in the country to take in the glorious fall foliage, and pumpkin spice lattes, which, incidentally, always seem to taste best in fall.…
Butterbeer Pudding inspired by Harry Potter whips up on the stovetop in just 20 minutes for a fun festive treat! I’m in shock that tomorrow is November. To say I’m pinching myself is an understatement; I’m basically throwing my head against the wall and wailing. Because where did this year go?!...
I have a sketchy history with Halloween and costumes....
With that evil temptation of a holiday coming at us this Friday, I had to take preemptive measures. Otherwise, I knew I’d be doomed....
How many of you will admit to sneaking some of your kid’s Halloween candy when no one is looking? I don’t have kids (yet!), but yeah, I’d be guilty as charged. It’s the stuff we won’t buy for ourselves, but if it’s just hanging around, it’s fair game. If you didn’t buy it for yourself, the calories don’t count, right? ;) I like to have healthier treats that will still satisfy a sweet tooth at the ready....
Look…they look like fudge inside! If you’re trying to avoid regular (read: sugar-coma-inducing) candy, this recipe will be your saving grace on Halloween night. Halloween at my mom’s house is like a free-for-all when it comes to sugar. She always has an insanely huge amount of candy on hand for giving away to kiddos trick-or-treating. She fills a stockpot (which is about four times as big as my normal big soup pot!) to the point of overflowing, and then it’s a frenzied dash for stuffing your bag (and your face) with candy. It is so hard to avoid that evil pot of temptation....
Today I have a few exciting announcements! Announcement #1: If you haven’t checked out Lazaro’s blog at Lazaro Cooks! be sure to do so! He is one of the most genuine people I know, and he is incredibly talented and passionate about what he does.

Thank you so much, Lazaro! Update: I’ve seen Lazaro’s […]...
The first holiday Brandy and I are celebrating for our All Through the Year Cheer Event is Halloween! To Brandy and I, Halloween says apples and pumpkins, so this month we’ll feature several recipes with those ingredients. (For some reason, Halloween always puts me in the mood to watch the first Harry Potter movie…I think because of the scene where they show the dining hall of Hogwarts all decked out with pumpkins!) The first recipe I’m featuring is a Pumpkin Yogurt Pound Cake. This recipe is actually a 2-for-1, since I used the same batter to make two completely different cakes. The first cake […]...
