There have been so many stories that have moved me throughout the past few weeks of isolation and social distancing. I hear and see my fellow human beings acting charitable, brave, strong, courageous, brilliant, adaptable, and resilient. I have also noticed that this unprecedented time has brought so many individuals and families back into their…

Dirty Chai Pumpkin Loaf
I love Pumpkin Bread and I love Dirty Chai Lattes so I figured I should meld the two into one. In case you don’t know what a Dirty Chai is, it’s a Chai Latte with a shot of espresso. Try it if you haven’t already! I called this a loaf instead of bread because it…
Arugula and Watermelon Salad with Honey Vinaigrette
This salad is my new favorite salad- that is not an exaggeration! If every salad tasted this good, then everyone would be getting their recommended daily servings of fruits and vegetables. The base of this salad is arugula, which was one of the big crops at Belle Mont Farm. The farm is at the base…
Lemon Blueberry Chia Pudding
I guess, at this point, chia pudding is “like so last week”. I know that it has been current food trend for a while now, but I am just now getting around to trying it. I am a big tapioca pudding fan. The texture makes tapioca pudding fun to eat in my opinion. Chia pudding…
The Infamous Cheese Board
Raise your hand if you love a good cheese board!! Boy do I love a gorgeous cheese platter. I eat these for dinner by themselves sometimes, but they are the most perfect appetizer. I think there is something for every palette on a well balanced cheese board. Even though cheese boards are fairly simple and…
Dark Chocolate Ginger Granola
I am obsessed with granola, and this granola is probably the best I have ever eaten. I love it. I think this is such a fitting recipe for this month’s entertainment centered theme. Part of entertaining is giving gifts and this would be the perfect gift to give. I love food gifts during the holidays…
Roasted Vegetable Platter
Have you ever noticed that there is almost always a vegetable tray at every Thanksgiving meal that doesn’t get attention by the guests? Let’s be real, the classic store bought veggie tray falls miserably short when compared to the delicious turkey and sides that make up the meal. I got to thinking, how could I…
Citrus Infused Cranberry Relish
I don’t know about you guys, but I never liked the cranberry sauce that came in the can. I know that cranberry sauce is a Thanksgiving staple, but as a kid I was always afraid to eat it. I think the fact that it took on the shape of the can was off putting. I…
“Vanilla, Spice, and Everything Nice” Orange Rolls
The dough for these rolls is a family recipe, passed down through generations. I have never tasted a cinnamon roll dough that I like better than this one. It is totally classic and completely delicious. The slightly sweet, yeasty taste makes this dough irresistible. Growing up, these rolls were just classic cinnamon rolls with either…
