Apple Crumble

Let me tell you a story… Once upon a day in college, something in the air snapped. There was a chilly breeze, changing leaves, and the crisp smell of fall settled on campus. Students were suddenly pulling out their sweaters, having picnics on the quad, and sipping pumpkin spice lattes.As I watched a movie-like scenario of autumn unfold…

Orange Sweet Rolls

As you probably know, I have food allergies. And that for me, it’s hard to cope with those allergies sometimes. Okay, not sometimes. ALL THE TIME. I think it’s just the fact that I can’t have something I want and the feeling of no control really stresses me out. I’m a bit of a control freak, so food…

Chocolate Zucchini Muffins

I’m starting to learn that nothing is ever simple. On my blog, sometimes I feel compelled to portray myself as a pristine, top of the notch, person who has it all together like Giada.

As the third week of school comes to an end, I am left knee-deep in homework and with a dire craving for baked goods. Seeing as I’m a tad bit obsessed with breakfast foods, I knew as soon as I set my backpack down today that I had to make these waffles. The thought came during physics as I…

Two Ingredient Chocolate Ice Cream

I lost my ice cream maker. I don’t know how, and I certainly don’t know when, but what I do know is that I’ve been left to fend for myself in the field of homemade ice cream. Honestly, it’s not a huge deal. I’ve only ever used it once. But I mean, for those inexplicable moments…

Blueberry Muffins

When I was little, my parents used to take our family to blueberry farms to pick fresh berries. For me, the mere thought of a farm solely dedicated to blueberries was absolutely fantastic, and I couldn’t wait to bury my hands in endless buckets of fruit.

Sour Cream Doughnuts

This seems to be the summer of sweets. Forget bikini season, I’ll be in my apron.Although I do love to soak up the sun, eat watermelon by the pool, and relax with my friends, I’m always itching to get back into the kitchen. I want to create a new dish, bury my fingers into a…

Chocolate Cake

This is one of those classic chocolate cake recipes. The kind of cake that makes your heart a little lighter, and sends a smile to your face. It’s fun to get together and have something good to eat at least once a day. That’s what human life is all about — enjoying things. – Julia Child I like fussy…
