Carrot cake is a quintessential dessert of spring. This recipe is moist slightly sweet, and perfectly spiced. It is paired with a rich and velvety cream cheese frosting.
I've gotten used to my afternoon slice of cake with a cup of tea. I'm not sure I will attempt to make another cake for a while. I'd like to remember this one for just a bit longer. The moist coconut cake layers in between sweet velvety buttercream frosting, sprinkled with fresh sweet shredded coconut.
I wanted to create something wholesome and healthy for Ashley, and breakfast skillets are a great way to incorporate lots of delicious things into one meal. This winter vegetable skillet has potatoes, Brussel sprouts, mushrooms, orange peppers, eggs, cheese, and avocado. It is so easy to prepare, and is so insanely delicious!
Last week, I decided that it had been too long since we'd enjoyed crepes together. I came down to the kitchen and started preparing the batter.

Because his family is a true-to-the-bone pancake family, I really wanted him to share with me the secrets to making a good pancake, thin and delicate, perfectly browned on the outside, soft on the inside. He gave me a recipe, one that he has memorized. A set of very specific instructions, the right temp, the right amount of time for frying. I followed it to a tee, and sure enough, the pancakes came out the way I had always dreamed they would.
