Snickerdoodles.... a childhood favorite.

He surprised Rusty and me this past week with a shoebox filled with fresh-caught Dungeness crab. Have I mentioned one of my love languages is food? Anyways, [...]

Blackberries are especially prevalent right now, and we've truly enjoyed the abundance. The bounty of berries has been my inspiration for all kinds [...]

I am clearly on a summer dessert kick right now. Maybe it's because the weather has been absolutely gorgeous for the past two weeks. Because of the weather and the season and my general proclivity for being outdoors, we've been spending most days outside. I've even got a work station set up on our back porch. [...]
