Eric: It’s called ironing. Karen: So…yeah. It will never look the same again. True story. It’s not even just that I hate ironing (which I do, with a fiery passion) but I’m just terrible at it. Eric iron’s one of his dress shirts in like 3 minutes flat, me? 20 minutes, if I’m lucky. And it still looks like crap. Do you have a favorite chili recipe? I didn’t, until now....
After years and years of having babies and little kids, Nathan and I are pretty used to doing New Year’s Eve at home. We make appetizers, play games, and tell the kids it is midnight when it is only 10 p.m. (Typically their excitement and sugar high keeps them from checking the clock . . . don’t judge us and our tired ways.) One of our very favorite New Year’s Eve appetizers is Shrimp Cocktail Sauce....
I think it’s fair to say that cookie dough is my love language. There has been an embarrassing amount of times that I have made cookies solely so that I can eat a little bit of the batter.

The Indian festive season always gets my creative juices flowing. Be it with my writing, art or my time in the kitchen. Maybe it is the change in the season – usually the beginning of Fall, the slight crispness in the air or the turning of the leaves, but this is usually the time of the year that I immerse myself in developing new recipes and recreating old favourites. When I woke up this morning, I had a long to-do list already waiting for me....

If you’re like me, you absolutely love the flavors of traditional chicken cordon bleu but you just don’t always have the time or the energy for all of the stuffing, rolling, and breading that comes with the original version. Enter the chicken cordon bleu casserole! All of the same mouth-wateringly good flavors in one simple dish. Instead of pounding cutlets and stuffing them with ham (or turkey) and cheese, I use shredded rotisserie chicken, cubes of deli ham, and a simple creamy cheese sauce all of which significantly reduce the prep time involved....

Have you guys gotten on board with the Marie Kondo decluttering movement? I need to, in like a major way. We are having our basement finished this spring, and we aren’t at like a level four hoarders situation or anything, but it is safe to say that we have way too much stuff. Blog props alone are kind of threatening to take over the basement. So I realize that this is a movement that I need to jump on board with quickly, but oh man, decluttering is literally the last way I want to spend my time....

Yesterday I showed up to kindergarten pick up, late as usual, but with a plate of cookies for Truman’s teacher to redeem myself (I had been testing recipes). I run in and stare around the classroom, which has no one in it besides Ms. Valencia and one little girl left to be picked up. “Where’s Truman??” I ask, with a tiny fractional moment of panic. Why would he not be there?...
Mulled wine makes me think of German Christmas markets. If you want to go to the best Christmas markets in the world, then you’ll find those in Germany! I was lucky enough a few years ago to be there around Christmas time, and you won’t believe how festive and beautiful everything was. When I studied in Sweden, I fell in love with mulled wine. It’s called “glogg” over there, and has a slightly different aroma and taste to the one that I’m used to....
What is a galette? A galette is the French name for a freeform tart. The crust is rolled out and instead of being molded into a tart shell like a tomato tart or a tomato pie, the sides are slightly folded over the filling the make a crust, looking a little like a pizza.

Today, I’m giving you five additional flavors. They too are easy to whip up. Make a batch for yourself and more for giving to friends. This is the best morning treat.

I suggest adding the smaller end of the range, tasting it, and adding more to taste. 3/4 cup half and half1 cup milk14 ounces (by weight) sweetened condensed milk2 tablespoons cocoa powder2 teaspoons vanilla extract...
I mentioned at a party recently that I don’t use face wash. Instead I just grab some of the lather from my shampooed hair, scrub it on my face real quick and call it good. This is officially my new party trick, because my friends laughed for a solid 30 seconds. Then came the follow up questions. “What kind of shampoo do you use?” “Uh…Herbal Essence?” More cascades of laughter, tears leaking, other groups stopping their conversations to try to find out what was so funny....
