Winter Wednesdays Vol. 13

Welcome to the last of Winter Wednesdays! How the hell did it take so long to get here. I feel like you can see how cold that water is above.

BAKING

Made the Magnolia banana pudding for the millionth time. Stellar as always. It’s such an incredible (and easy) dessert to any gathering.

COOKING

I also made a sausage and mushroom strata, but with chicken breakfast sausage this time and it still tasted as good as it did with pork sausage.

CRAVING

I need to make this spring panzanella salad with crispy shallots immediately.

DRINKING

Attempting to make lavender vanilla iced lattes this week to usher in the springtime.

EATING

I’ve eaten so much cottage cheese lately (the good Trader Joe’s one) that when I had a bite this morning I audibly went, “Okay, it’s too much” so I think I need to take a break.

EXPERIENCING

On a weekend trip away, we stopped at the Friday the 13th diner again. Our fourth time. We might have a problem.

Winter Wednesdays Vol. 9

No one is happier than I am with how fast this month is moving. Yesterday felt like the beginning of spring and I can’t describe what it did to my mood. I want tulips everywhere and I want them now.

BAKING/COOKING

I found a great way to cook mushrooms that really did make them taste restaurant-quality.

CRAVING

The new spring felt friends from Target just came out and surprise, surprise: they’re perfect. The chokehold that these guys (below) have on me should be studied.

DRINKING

Gotta make this dark and stormy slushie.

EATING

The hunter chicken at Jack Astor’s remains incredible.
