Every year, I have a group of girlfriends come over to watch The Oscars. We drink lots of wine, we all bring an appetizer or dish to share, we all critique the styles of the rich and famous on the red carpet and wager who will or will not win each award.

Pie is one of my reasons for living. You all know this. I have been so spoiled by my Dad’s homemade pie my whole life that I will almost never eat pie that isn’t homemade. I’ll occasionally eat a piece of pie from Snohomish Pie Company, which is a wonderful little local bakery here, but… Continue reading Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

Seriously, how cute are these? I made them in 15 minutes with 2 ingredients and some sprinkles. What an adorable thing to bring to a Christmas… Continue reading Chocolate Covered Strawberry Christmas Trees
I realized recently while pinning some Christmas stuff in May (yes, I am sick) that I have a huge board chock full of Christmas recipes, many that I make, but few that I have taken the time to photograph and blog and share with you. Oddly enough, November and December are the two months of… Continue reading Red Velvet Crinkle Cookies
