Lemon Ricotta Cookies

My new favorite weekly activity is going to the local farmer's market on Saturdays. This market sells the leftover "ugly" fruit and vegetables that groceries and restaurants have rejected. Usually this means incredible deals - whole boxes of fruit for a dollar, huge bunches of kale for a few bucks - so I've started to get all my produce from here. 

Chocolate Filled Donuts

The plan last week was to make donuts and then blog about them - except the donuts turned out...very funny looking. They were baked, not fried, and didn't have that nice golden color I was going for. In an attempt to add color, I used my kitchen torch on them. That didn't go over so well.

S'mores cookies

Last weekend, I had plans to go camping in Acadia National Park with the roommates. It was something that I was really looking forward to, but I somehow got terribly sick. It's summer and it was just a cold, but it left me barely able to get out of bed for days. So camping was definitely out.

Blueberry Cupcakes with Maple Frosting

The blog hiatus is over! It's been a pretty busy couple of months, and it was difficult to find time to fix up this blog. The recipe index was in dire need of re-organizing so it more visually appealing and easier to find older posts - it's finally done though! Check out "Recipe Index" above to look back through past recipes.

Blog on hiatus

Going on a break from blogging - combination of life things and my plan to overhaul my blog layout. Stay tuned!
