January 26th, 2013 · 2 Comments · cake, Dessert, Easy
I’ve always really liked carrot cake, but I’ve never actually made it before. This is likely because it’s one of my grandma’s specialities.

Earl Grey Tea Latte (London Fog)
November 13th, 2011 · No Comments · Drink, Easy
In an effort to sate my girlfriends serious addiction to Starbuck’s Earl Grey Tea Lattes I set out to see if I could easily (and cheaply) make them at home. Since I don’t own anything with a milk steamer I was unsure how this would work out, but I made do!

Vanilla Bean Scones

I’m not 100% sure why I love it so much, whether its her cooking, her hilarious writing style, her charming and ‘awwwww’ worthy photos or just based on the pure fact that she is seriously living my dream life. Let’s get to the scones. […]
