Berry good start to a berry good weekend. (I’m berry sorry for the puns.) (No I’m not.) • • #vsco #vscocam #strawberry #strawberrypicking #farmfresh #summer #eatlocal #buylocal #🍓

Wednesday is also my Monday so that means I have a case of the Mondays on Hump Day. Which basically means I need all the cheese and all the fixins to get me through. • • #vscocam #vscoedit #vsco #cheese #cheeseboard #meatandcheese #wisconsin #wisconsinfood #beer #crackers #pretzels

I tried my hardest to remember the way @kristophermcgowan taught me how to make his grandmother’s cornbread. It’s close. Maybe not perfect. But food isn’t about perfection - it’s about caring for people. My grandma taught me that. What did you grandma teach you? • • • • • • • #vsco #vscocam #homemade #fromscratch #foodblog #baker #baking #thefeedfeed #thebakefeed #food52 #f52grams #gloobyfood #instaeats #huffposttaste #foodblogfeed #eeeeeats #food #recipe #ontheblog #linkinbio #foodphotography #foodphoto #foodstyling #cornbread #castironskillet #southern #southernfood

Slowly but surely redoing the recipe index on my site (oofta). It’s reminding me of some of the tastier treats I’ve made in the past. Like these boozy brownie shakes! Which I’m craving after staring at a screen for, like, ever. • • • • • • • #vsco #vscocam #homemade #fromscratch #foodblog #baker #baking #thefeedfeed #thebakefeed #food52 #f52grams #gloobyfood #instaeats #huffposttaste #foodblogfeed #eeeeeats #food #recipe #ontheblog #linkinbio #foodphotography #foodphoto #foodstyling

I’m happy to be wrong sometimes. Because when that happens I befriend people like @njfalco22 & we share a love for old people baked goods & making & creating & dogs. Find out more and the recipe for these oatmeal raisin cookies on the blog! • • • • • • • #vsco #vscocam #homemade #fromscratch #foodblog #baker #baking #thefeedfeed #thebakefeed #food52 #f52grams #gloobyfood #instaeats #huffposttaste #foodblogfeed #eeeeeats #food #recipe #ontheblog #linkinbio #foodphotography #foodphoto #foodstyling #cookies #cookie #oatmealcookies #oatmealraisin #woodworking

#fbf to the last time I made doonies with @jn.rae 🍩 the affection I feel for both her and fried dough is staggering. • • #nationaldonutday #donut #prep #prepwork #kitchenprep #dough #donut #doughnut #donuts #sundaymorning #latergram #yeahthatgreenville #eatgbnd

It’s rainy. It’s wet. It’s the perfect weather for coffee cake! Find the recipe in the archives. Then make some for @njfalco22 who is also an old soul and loves coffee cake. • • • • • • • #vsco #vscocam #homemade #fromscratch #foodblog #baker #baking #thefeedfeed #thebakefeed #food52 #f52grams #gloobyfood #instaeats #huffposttaste #foodblogfeed #eeeeeats #food #recipe #ontheblog #linkinbio #foodphotography #foodphoto #foodstyling #cake #coffeecake #coffee #coffeebreak

Things I miss about SC: Central Air ❄️ It’s far too hot here to bake and my poor little window unit just can’t keep up. So, I mixed up a batch of these Browned Butter Chocolate Chip Cookies to make when it cools down a bit...or to eat straight from the freezer 🤷🏻‍♀️ Just mix the dough, scoop onto a silicone mat lined baking sheet, and freeze for a few hours. Pop in a plastic bag when frozen solid and then take out when ready to bake - just a few or the whole batch! • • • • • • • #vsco #vscocam #homemade #fromscratch #foodblog #baker #baking #thefeedfeed #thebakefeed #food52 #f52grams #gloobyfood #instaeats #huffposttaste #foodblogfeed #eeeeeats #food #recipe #ontheblog #linkinbio #foodphotography #foodphoto #foodstyling #cookies #chocolatechip #chocolatechipcookies #cookie #brownedbutter #howto #makeahead
