I totally need to go to the grocery store. Big time. I've been stalling for days. I don't know why. Maybe because in the summer all I want to eat is fruit. Or maybe I just needed something to procrastinate about that would make me actually fold the 5 loads of clean laundry sitting on… Continue reading Braided Spaghetti Bread

Double Glazed Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake
I simply adore the bright fresh flavor of lemon. It just makes for happy food. I'm not really sure what the right label for this treat is. It's too sweet to be a bread, too light to be a true pound cake and too bread-like to be a cake. It's fabulous, whatever it is. Filled… Continue reading Double Glazed Lemon Blueberry Pound Cake
Super Moist Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Baked goods involving zucchini are considered a vegetable in my book. I've been exercising like a crazy person lately and watching my calories, so more vegetables is exactly what I need. This amazingly moist absolutely decadent tasting chocolate bread fit the bill perfectly. I don't feel too badly about it since it's reasonably low-calorie and… Continue reading Super Moist Chocolate Zucchini Bread
Monkey Bites
No monkeys were harmed in the making of this dessert. I guess it's called monkey bites because it has bananas in it, but really it should be called moist-delicious-awesomeness-banana-bites. Yeah, I guess Monkey Bites rolls off the tongue a little easier. I prefer my baked goods as ladies, not gentlemen. As in, no nuts. But… Continue reading Monkey Bites
Snickerdoodle Bread
A few weeks ago my grandmother gave me four mini loaf pans. She knows me so well. I've been trying to use them ever since so I can bring her something delicious as a thank you. Yes, that's what happens when you give me a baking item as a gift. I use it to make… Continue reading Snickerdoodle Bread
Cinnamon Toast Twists
Morning people, I salute you. However, I will never truly join your ranks. Mornings are just not my thing. I remembered that today as I dragged my sleepy self out of bed for a 6am yoga class. I'm hitting my stride with my couch-to-5K program and my muscles need a little extra stretching out. Since… Continue reading Cinnamon Toast Twists
Hot Cross Buns
These light, gently spiced buns are one of my favorite Easter week traditions. I make them every Good Friday, always bringing them to my mom for sharing with a cup of tea. This recipe from America's Test Kitchen is a little time intensive, but not difficult and, it has never failed me. You get big,… Continue reading Hot Cross Buns
Apple Raisin Breakfast Bread
Breakfast can get boring easily. At least for me. I'm not a morning person. Actually, I'm currently blogging at 2am - so that should tell you something of my preference between day and night. Also, should make you cut me some slack if anything in this post makes no sense. Since I don't drink coffee,… Continue reading Apple Raisin Breakfast Bread
Lemon Monkey Bread
Every monkey bread recipe I've ever seen is made with butter and brown sugar resulting in a caramel covered pull apart bread. This recipe intrigued me because of its main ingredient. Lemon. Lemon? Yes indeed. It is a bright fresh citrus bread drizzled with butter, lemony sugar and a sweet glaze. Lemon is so vibrant… Continue reading Lemon Monkey Bread
