How To Make Blueberry Muffins

Blueberry Muffins with Streusel Topping

I have no hesitation when I say that blueberry muffins are the best muffins in all of Muffin-Land. I mean, they’re perfect. Sweet enough to be a dessert, but still (kinda) healthy enough to be an okay breakfast, especially if you make them with whole wheat flour and serve with an omelet or some fruit [...]

Eggs Benedict Recipe

Eggs Benedict

Eggs Benedict always seemed like the MOST FANCY thing on the planet to me when I was a kid. Not that I’d ever eaten it. I’m sure that’s why it seemed so fancy. I don’t even know how I heard about it; well, probably I read about it in a cookbook. Oh, little Hilah – [...]

Peached Tortilla Food Trailer

The Peached Tortilla!

We’re getting the adventures started early this season! You know I have a fascination with food trucks and trailers. There’s something about the entrepreneurship behind them, the ingenuity in their design, the fact that you can DRIVE them, and the hot and sweaty working conditions that just drive me WILD.

Hey. Guess where I got to go? Guess where I got to go and sit on a private verandah? Guess where I got to go and hijack a kitchen and steal a top-secret recipe? San Antonio, baby! The coolest of all the cool bed and breakfast owners on the planet invited me to their swank [...]
