Hello and welcome back! I am so excited to share another post in “Cooking with…” series. Not only it is the best cheesecake ever, but this time I can also provide you with a link to its recipe. My husband came across this video (Kitchen and Craft: Basque Cheesecake) on […]
Hello and welcome back! Don’t be surprised by my apparent jump over Thanksgiving. I am still getting (and carving) pumpkins, dressing up for Halloween, and I plan on eating cranberry everything in November. But I am also starting to get really excited about the best holiday of the year – […]
Hello and welcome back! Back in July, I shared with you some ingredients I consider my must-haves. I mentioned at the end of that post that I was transitioning from non-stick pans to cookware made with more natural materials. Overtime, I got better at getting the same results with stainless […]
Hello and welcome back! Awhile ago, I shared few posts highlighting several cheeses I love and use a lot in my cooking. If you’d like a look back, you can find them in the Cheese category. This time, I thought about focusing on another food that I simply cannot live […]

This is an unusual post as it is not a recipe. Well, it has a recipe but you absolutely can not eat what you make. Even though it is “technically” edible, I wouldn’t try it. Intrigued? Disappointed? Excited, because your waffle iron needs cleaning and that is why you clicked […]
It’s beginning to look a lot like we’re going straight for Christmas this year and skipping Thanksgiving! I don’t know about you, but the thought of all things Christmas brings me so much comfort – this year especially. If your family and friends are asking you for your wish list […]
