I dropped off the face of the Earth. I lost all will to write. I gave in to my depression. I honestly thought everything would get better after Summer ended. Technically, it’s still not Autumn yet, but before June was my only bad month. But I’ve been having a hard time lately. I had aboutContinue reading “The Return of the Prodigal Son“

Let’s Eat!
I mentioned in one of my previous posts about one of my favorite Korean Drama series. Let’s Eat. It was so popular it apparently got three seasons. I’ve only been able to find and watch the first two seasons. They used to be on Netflix, but are more difficult to track down now. The ThaiContinue reading “Let’s Eat!”
Brown Butter Sauce
I’ve made brown butter for a few things. Here’s a great list of the different ways you can use it. I need to go down that list and try each one. I’ve done it a few times for eggs. Cookies. And one of my favorite ways was doing a brown butter buttercream icing that wentContinue reading “Brown Butter Sauce”
Summer Refresher!
There are a lot of things that make me think of Summertime with drinks. Sun brewed ice tea. Lemonade. Arnold Palmer. Last year there was some kind of trend where there was a lemonade made mixed with something creamy. Which is always delicious! But since it’s been getting hotter and hotter here, I was tryingContinue reading “Summer Refresher!”
Japanese Home Cooking
I found this cookbook on Overdrive/Libby through my local Library’s online checkout system and I absolutely love it. I’m biased and have an obsession with cookbooks. I know you can find recipes online, but there’s something nice about being able to just look at the recipe and skip over the talking part. Every cooking blogContinue reading “Japanese Home Cooking”
International No Diet Day
My SO won’t be breaking his diet today, because he’s been doing so well with Keto. 20 pounds down! I’m so proud of him. I’ll probably try to make something for him today. Something that actually fits his diet. I’m not doing great on my diet, sadly. But it’s International No Diet Day! So let’sContinue reading “International No Diet Day”
Keto Cake?
This actually turned out amazing. I forgot to take a picture after I was done, but I loved it. I didn’t buy the icing, I made my own and wasn’t impressed. The keto powdered sugar was way too sweet. I think instead of using that and butter to make a keto buttercream, next time I’llContinue reading “Keto Cake?”
Chicken Salad
Typically, when I cook, I prefer to have exact amounts. But I’ve learned through the years to estimate pretty well when it comes to cooking and even baking. I.E. Making mug cakes and such. Since an exact amount isn’t always feasible. My MIL boiled two boneless and two bone-in chicken breasts. They cooked until theContinue reading “Chicken Salad”
Tea Puns Forever!
“Where there’s tea there’s hope.” — Arthur Wing Pinero This isn’t an original pun. Let’s be honest. I’ve seen some people do this with two Boba teacups. I just really thought it would be cute to have two tea bags hanging together. I’m going to keep going with these drawing puns. I’m such a tea person instead ofContinue reading “Tea Puns Forever!”
Tea Time
Just a simple little doodle today! I’m really feeling the idea of tea though. My MIL bought some Stinging Nettle tea and some Hibiscus tea so maybe I shall have one of those two. All this cold weather this week has frozen me to the core. I’ll need to fill my water bottle up withContinue reading “Tea Time”
