Hey ya’ll. You’re not gonna believe this, but we’re back! Wedding month concluded yesterday with a super cute, DIY ceremony and reception that Pinterest only wished it had witnessed in the flesh. Of course I left my phone at home, so I can’t share a lick of it with you right yet, but if I can get my hand on some snaparoos, I’ll be sure to share. Suuuuuur cuuuuuurte. And now we can get on with a fall that’s nearly as full of festivities. Almost. Except guessat. I’m not ready for fall. So instead let’s keep eating salad like it’s … Read More
Salted Chocolate Creme Pie with Coconut Whip
I’ve been on a pie kick lately. Last week it was a smoothie that tasted like pie, today it’s a real-deal, legit dessert pie — and next week I’m even talking about quinoa pie. Well quinoa cake, but it’s kinda pie-y. Fuhrreal. It’s so cray I don’t know what to say. A few months ago, shortly after I decided it’d be worth my/your while to break out the good camera, I made a little dessert called Salted Mayan Chocolate Pots de Creme. And you guuuuyyyyyyyys, you ate them right up! Either that or my mom clicked the recipe about a bajillion … Read More
(Almost Vegan) Caramelized Onion White Bean Dip
I had such good intentions for how I was going to spend today. With Chris off traipsing around with one of his two-wheeled concubines, my Saturday was slated to begin with an early morning run (thanks again to that birthday gift we discussed), a jaunt to the market, several late-morning hours of intensive literary study via young adult romance, and an afternoon in the kitchen working on this week’s recipes for you guys. And then something deliciously derailing happened. I slept in. (If you didn’t gather, this is a rare weekend occurrence likened only to something as epic as the … Read More
Sweet Potato & Green Bean Salad with Maple-Mustard Dressing
{Reminder: our Saucy Mama Giveaway is open until June 29th! Win three mustards, or just take advantage of the P&Q coupon code. Have you entered yet?} In the past 96 hours, I’ve eaten pizza. I’ve eaten pastrami. I’ve eaten burgers and fries and snappy-skinned hot dogs that, while delicious, no amount of papaya juice can make go down easily. I’ve had pork belly upon pork belly upon pork belly: on sandwiches, in soup and in a salad that showcases one of the tastiest flavor combos I’ve tried. I’ve had cookies and ice cream and caramels and, ohhhhh the coffee drinks. … Read More
Cinco de Mayo Roundup: Cray for ¡Olé!
Hola. (Also — Holla!) Ima keep this short. Reaaaaaaaaaaaaaaal shoooooort. (Apparently not that short since I’m playing it pretty fast and loose with the emphasized vowel sounds.) Tomorrow is Cinco. I’m at the lake. Margs are calling. (Yes, I know it’s 8am…) I’d attempt to share one with you in the form of a recipe, but I might be the world’s worse bartender. So instead, hows about we do another quickie recipe roundup — Mexican edition — to make sure you have a full cushion before unwisely donning that boozy sombrero? Sweet. Lessdoeet. Have a festive and safe Cinco, everyone! xoxo, Gossip … Read More
