Bourbon Chocolate Chip Cookies

And here we are, in the beginning of December. I’ve been planning and prepping for Christmas for weeks now, but still, the beginning of December gets me a little short of breath in thinking of all there is to do. Even so, we had a pretty fun, low-key weekend and I cherished every minute! Here are the highlights: I had my annual girls gingerbread making night. It’s just us grown ups, no kids, and we bring food, drink wine, do a white elephant gift exchange and then try our best at making a gingerbread house from scratch....

Bratwursts And Sauerkraut

You’ll need a package of fresh bratwursts (not the fully-cooked sausages near the hot dogs–look in the fresh meats near the Italian sausage), a sweet onion, some murky, dark apple cider vinegar (the stuff with “the mother”), brown mustard, a pinch of caraway seeds, celery seeds, and freshly ground black pepper. You’ll also need your liquid of choice–you can use beer, non-alcoholic beer (like O’Douls), or sparkling apple cider (if you can find Apple Beer, that’s a great non-alcoholic option)....

Buttermilk Orange Donut Muffins

This was not always the case. There was a time when I used to kill myself making food for parties and holidays and events. And then I realized that I kind of hated and dreaded those special times because I was so stressed about the food that I forgot to enjoy the holiday or the fun times with our friends and family. One of my favorite Easter foods growing up was orange rolls....

Corn Salad With Queso Fresco

Ingredient Notes Jalapenos – Jalapenos add a nice kick to this salad, but if you prefer less spice, feel free to leave them out. It’s equally great without them. Fresh Corn Cobs – If fresh corn isn’t in season or you’d prefer a time-saver, you can find pre-schucked ready-to-eat corn cobs in the produce section of some grocery stores. Frozen fresh corn also works great! I would not recommend canned corn for this recipe....

Easy 2 Ingredient Biscuits

These biscuits have a delicate texture so they’re perfect as a side dish as opposed to building a giant sandwich or something. They work great with a lighter combo- like an egg and slice of bacon and cheese sandwiched in there, or with a bowl of soup. They’re tender and light, and super delicious. So what are those magical two ingredients? Self-rising flour and heavy cream. I keep a bag of self-rising flour in my freezer just for a few specific recipes, this being one of them....
