These wholesome banana nut muffins were a lifesaver last week. The short story: we went to the US Embassy. The long story… well, that’s coming. If you’re all about the eats, I won’t judge if you scroll right on down to the recipe. The rest of you, sit tight and hold my hand through my…
Quick Pumpkin Cinnamon Rolls
Warm, gooey cinnamon rolls are one of my favorite breakfast foods. In university I baked my first batch while living in the dorms with three other girls. Once those pillow-soft rolls with tangy cream cheese frosting met my lips, I knew my roomies would not be offered the pleasure of sampling. Selfish, I know, but…
Wholesome Spiced Carrot Muffins
We ran out of cereal. For Husband, this was a pretty big deal, since he’d been forced to eat overnight oats with Summer and I for three days straight. Oatmeal is his kryptonite. I made wholesome spiced carrot muffins to get him out of his breakfast funk. They’re loads more nutritional than the Lucky Charms…
Sour Cream Coffee Cake Recipe
My great Uncle Jim is popular in his hometown for the incredible sour cream coffee cakes he passes out to neighbors and friends around the holidays. He knows I love ’em so much that he always makes sure I get one, even if it means my mom totes it carefully through customs in her carry-on…

Passionate people 7. Travel 8. Snorkeling 9. Going to the gym 10. Muffins that have strong, lofty domes I…
Cinnamon Roll Muffins
Joy the Baker has a knack for taking our favorite treats and making them quick-fix favorites. A few weeks ago I baked scrumptious shortcut cinnamon roll muffins that she´d posted (originally from BakingBites). The clever ingenuity behind these muffins is that they are practically identical to their spiral twice-risen yeasty cousin, but with much less…
Holiday Friendly Banana Bread
Dear Friends, I realize we’re all in the same boat this holiday season, concerned about our dryers mysteriously shrinking our favorite jeans, double chin reappearances, and maintaining a svelte silhouette to impress relatives who can’t keep comments to themselves. With these things in mind, may I introduce you to your new autumn pre-Thanksgiving and December…
