Bake it up, Baby
I’m heading home for fall break in a week and a bit, and I’ve already started planning all the things I’m going to cook and bake, and which of my favorite restaurants I want to hit up.
And even though I made these muffins 3 times in one week and basically ate the entire batch, I’m still going to make sure these muffins are the first thing I stick in the oven next weekend….
Fresh pasta is just one of those things that sounds like a lot of work.
I mean, if you look at most traditional recipes, it certainly seems that way. Lots of kneading, resting, machine-ing, cutting… it’s a lot….
It may be in the 90s in Connecticut this week, but it’s September and that means pumpkin.
Since I’ve been recipe testing all summer, I’ve bought and consumed many cans of pumpkin already. But somehow it’s just different when it’s season of pumpkin spice lattes….
My first memory of Japanese food involves udon.
My dad used to take me to an Asian market/restaurant by our house that was surprisingly authentic. We would split a vegetable croquette (Think potatoes and vegetables, deep fried. I know) and each get a noodle dish. He would always get soba noodle soup (buckwheat noodles), and for some reason, I’d get zaru udon….
Peaches are kind of the ultimate summer fruit. (Sorry mango, you win almost every other time, but let peaches have this one)
So it’s kind of a shock to me that I have only one other peach recipe on this blog! Clearly I’m just an ‘eat them fresh’ kind of person. However, when I do bake my peaches, I love them with a little pastry….
There are a lot of fancy-schmancy desserts I want to try, but I’m a little intimidated by.
Macarons, for one. Homemade puff pastry. Croissants. Donuts….
I need a word for the feeling when you’re simultaneously relieved and disappointed that something is over.
This past weekend, I performed my arangetram, a 2-3 hour solo bharatanatyam dance recital with a live orchestra (that included my dance teacher, who is also my mother!)…
Happy Monday, people!
Today is an eventful day- preregistration for my first-ever college courses begins and AP scores come out! Plus, it’s a day of rest after an incredibly successful performance by one of my closest friends on Sunday (sitting through hours of those rehearsals and not even dancing was worth it!)…
Two no bake peanut butter and chocolate posts in a week? Must be Christmas in July June. You get it.
In all honesty, I wasn’t planning on posting the recipe to this, but it was just so damn good and got some love on insta, sooo….
