Cinnamon Vanilla Almond Butter
Happy Monday everyone! Hope you all enjoyed Nick’s post. I was very surprised, and of course, can’t think of a better way to get a ring than on top of chocolate! Looks like my cooking and baking won’t be slowing down any time soon. This weekend I had a project I wanted to try. I…

Except Swiss, which for some reason he’s decided he doesn’t like anymore. But that’s another story. When I saw a…
Sausages on Homemade Pretzel Buns
This one is for all my Boston buddies. Everyone who’s spent a night out around Fenway with me and stopped at The Sausage Guy at 2 am to pick up something delicious for the walk home. Oh yeah, you know what I’m talking about. The idea for these sandwiches started with these beauties. For a…
Toasted Squash Seeds
