Sometimes the baking I do is for a very specific crowd: a crowd of one. More specifically, my one-year old baby girl. I guess technically, she’s my toddler girl now. Sigh. That went too fast. We’re working on feeding ourselves these days. I mean, I […]

Who’s dreaming of summer? In Florida, we almost live in a perpetual state of summer, but that doesn’t mean that we don’t miss those summer fruits and flavors! I’m lucky that I have access to decent (and not ridiculously expensive) blueberries year round, but this […]
