The “Everything is Awesome” Totally Amazing Lego Party!
If you have a child between the ages of 3 and 13, chances are, you've seen The Lego Movie and have endured enjoyed endless hours of "Everything is Awesome" being sung, hummed, whistled and generally trapped in your subconscious. My little rugrats can be found most days sprawled on the floor singing as they create… Continue reading The “Everything is Awesome” Totally Amazing Lego Party!
Cranberry Upside Down Coffeecake
Confession. I'm a giant bookworm. It's a condition that dates back to my early childhood. My parents have time-lapse video from Christmases long past where I don't move from the same armchair for over 10 hours. I'm a constant figure as the room buzzes with holiday activity around me. Motionless, except the occasional turning of… Continue reading Cranberry Upside Down Coffeecake
Honeycrisp Dutch Apple Pie
A mournful thick rain is pelting my office classroom playroom window tonight as I sit typing with a belly that is full and happy. Full because it's stuffed with layers of perfectly spiced apple, buttery flaky crust and crunchy crumble topping. Happy basking in the glow of warm friendship and thankfulness. My girlfriend Rachel brought… Continue reading Honeycrisp Dutch Apple Pie

They are… Continue reading The World’s Greatest Cinnamon Rolls

Fall is here. Fi-na-lly. Seriously, this has been the longest summer I can ever remember in Seattle. So hot. Yes. I'm a heat complainer.

I love making pumpkin spiced deliciousness during… Continue reading Pumpkin-Oat Chocolate Chip Cookies
Mom’s Chocolate Zucchini Cake Perfection
My mother has been making this cake as long as I can remember. As a child, the thought of a vegetable baked into a cake was just supremely odd. Now I know that little flecks of zucchini melt into the chocolate batter making the texture and richness just perfect. My kids don't have any of… Continue reading Mom’s Chocolate Zucchini Cake Perfection
Oooey Gooey Sinful Caramel Pie
This pie indulged my sweet tooth, and my highly closeted rebel nature. You see, this recipe makes dulce de leche out of sweetened condensed milk. And does so by boiling the cans. Yes. Boiling them. If you are looking to add a little danger to your life, this is the way to do it. I've… Continue reading Oooey Gooey Sinful Caramel Pie
