Banana Whoopie Pies with Nutella Buttercream Filling

October 18, 2011 20 Comments

So, if you guys were paying attention, you’ll recall that I said there were four over-ripe bananas on top of my fridge. But, only two of ’em went into my banana cake. That means that as of 7pm last night there were still two mushy (quickly getting mushier) bananas laying around, attracting millions of fruit…read more »

Smoked Salmon and Mozzarella Crostini

October 15, 2011 8 Comments

Last month, Dan and I were up in Massachusetts for his cousin Pete’s wedding. It was awesome; possibly one of the best weddings we’ve ever been to. The weather was amazing, the outdoor venue was gorgeous, the ceremony was short and sweet, the dance floor was jumpin’, and there was an open bar + servers…read more »

Crispy Bacon and Onion Wonton Flowers

October 13, 2011 6 Comments

OK, if you want to get really technical, these “flowers” are pretty much just bastardized crab rangoons without crab meat. I didn’t think that was an appropriate or appetizing title, though, so I fancied up the name a little. But, just as a rose by any other name smells as sweet, a rangoon by any…read more »

Short Stack Cookies

October 9, 2011 7 Comments

Confession: I’m not crazy about pancakes. I’ll make ’em (for Dan, mainly), I’ll eat ’em, but I don’t love ’em. If there are chocolate chips involved, I’ll enjoy them more, but that’s mainly because of the chocolate. I have nothing against pancakes, really. It’s just that, given a choice, I’d far rather have something savory…read more »

Pepperoni Pizza Puffs

September 13, 2011 26 Comments

First Patriots game of the season was last night, and Dan was giddy with excitement. Me? Not so much. As dreamy as Tom Brady is, my favorite part of watching football is the eating. Chips and dips…wings…pizza. Mmm, junk food! I saw this recipe for pizza puffs on FoodGawker and knew right away that I was going…read more »

Zucchini Cakes

July 24, 2011 99 Comments

I think it’s safe to say that the zucchinis have won. Dan and I are officially sick of the stuff — we’ve eaten zucchini in some form or another every single day this week. Roasted, mainly, but also sauteed, mixed in with scrambled eggs, and cut into strips for fries. These zucchini cakes were a…read more »

Zucchini Bread

July 18, 2011 5 Comments

This past weekend a bunch of us piled into Dan’s tiny Mazda and headed into the boonies of Virginia for some good old fashioned fruit picking. The original plan was to pick peaches and blackberries, but once we got to the farm, we realized they had a whole lot more to offer than just those…read more »

Crab Rangoons

July 12, 2011 6 Comments

So last week I made crab rangoons for the first time. We were in Boston for 4th of July weekend, and one of our friends invited us over to make sushi. This, of course, meant crab rangoons were on the menu too. And crab cakes. And peach margaritas. I dunno, it made sense at the…read more »

Peanut Butter Cup Bars

July 9, 2011 3 Comments

A lot of people love chocolate and peanut butter, but my friend Emily really loves it. Like, “possibly bordering on an unhealthy addiction” kind of love. She actually refers to Reese’s peanut butter cups as “crack,” and goes out of her way to avoid the stuff because if there’s any of it around the house, she’ll keep eating…read more »

Dulce de Leche-Nutella Swirl Loaf Cake

June 26, 2011 6 Comments

There are still a few things Dan and I need to do to fully recover from our Great Beach Robbery — getting new driver’s licenses, for example — but everything is closed on Sundays, so we’ve been having a pretty lazy day so far. We slept in until the hungry meows of our kitties could…read more »
