Crispy-Chewy Salted White Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies

May 13, 2008 By Laura 2 Comments

Drat that Smitten Kitchen. This time I was perusing her blog myself when I came upon this cookie recipe. I was immediately intrigued because I like oats and I love salty with sweet. To be honest I originally intended to make these cookies with milk chocolate, because I am not a fan at all of…

Catching up from Computer Woes: Blueberry Crisp & Peanut Butter Cookies

April 30, 2008 By Laura Leave a Comment

When I promised pictures of Cheesecake Pops and commentaries on blueberry crisp, I should have remembered my husband was going out of town. Yikes. Things were further complicated by the fact that for some reason fixing our external hard drive wiped out an entire week’s worth of Microsoft Word (saved on the internal hard drive)…

April 17, 2008 By Laura 1 Comment

I just got back in town from being gone for a few days, but I made this recipe right before I left. Things were hectic and I never took any pictures, but I still decided it was better to get some recipe from me than not at all (and that is why you see Finnegan…

My Best Blondies

April 2, 2008 By Laura 6 Comments

Best Blondies: this has been my tried and true standby recipe for at least a decade. My family adores these with just about any chip, chunk, nut or candy mixed in--you choose!

My Best Blondies are like old friends in my kitchen; they are flexible to different chips, chunks and nuts, and are there when I need them. Probably one of the most made recipes in my kitchen, I have been asked for this recipe countless times. I don’t have anything savory to share with you for…

We’re Back! …and we’re all sick.

March 27, 2008 By Laura 4 Comments

Sorry about another delay between posts, but while we were out of town we picked up some major bugs. Before mine hit full on, though, I did make these cookies from my newly arrived Martha Stewart’s Cookies. They are solidly good–maybe not amazing, but nice for a change of pace. So hopefully they will tide…

I had grand plans for today. I took the kids to the community center toddler “Open Gym” (a sub in for the park during these gross weather months), got home, made them lunch. Then I started working on dinner: Alex and I made a really tasty looking bread with cheese and chile peppers, I got…

Hi! I’m Laura and I am a recovering history major who has re-channeled all of my passion for learning about the history of different countries to learning about their food culture. That doesn’t mean every dish on here is strictly authentic, but it does mean that even my adaptations are not undertaken lightly. My goal is to show you–by doing–that these dishes are possible in your kitchen. Including desserts because I have quite the sweet tooth! Read More…
