Main September is the month of birthdays in my family–there are at least four. As evidenced here, here, here, and here, I have a very soft and tender spot for cake. And so, more than anything this month, I’ve been craving foods that I could feel good about eating. I’m talking nutritionally dense foods that […]
Coconut Bourbon Banana Bread
I’m of the belief that you can’t cram enough goodness into banana bread; it can totally handle it! This banana bread is made with browned butter, big chunks of walnuts, toasted coconut, and a splash of bourbon–browned butter for it’s rich nutty flavor, walnuts because my two-year-old is obsessed with nuts, toasted coconut since we […]
Two Bean Summer Salad. Easy Chocolate Pudding
chocolate I’m just going to start with this apology, rather than end with it, (so you know what you’re getting into and can just skip to the recipe link at the bottom of the page if you want): I’m sorry, but my eldest son turned five, and I melted into this puddle of sad, emotional […]

Inactive OnlyFans Pages: Signs You Can Check First
If a free OnlyFans profile looks abandoned, the page itself usually tells you before you spend time on it. The signals are plain: timestamps, pinned posts, profile fields, message pricing, and how the creator behaves on other platforms. This guide covers the checks that take seconds each, so you can decide whether a page is […]
Pork and Broccolini Sandwich
A pork shoulder roast is a gift that keeps on giving. Its meaty girth, gristle, and crisp skin provides a generous and impressive roast, without breaking the bank, which is perfect for a large group. Or, you can make one for your family and reserve the leftover meat for future meals! Amy gifted me with […]
Soup and Stews
At a Korean table, a variety of side dishes (banchan) will clutter and cover an entire table to the corners and edges. Each diner is set with their own bowl of rice, a spoon, and chopsticks. A soup or stew is a standard for every mealtime during a Korean meal. As such, a single pot of […]
The Shared Plate
The rain gods have blessed us with water falling from the sky, but with it comes the damp coldness and gray. The kids were bouncing around the house aimlessly, so I knew we needed to get our wits about us and come up with a rainy day project. Behold the four darkly spotted bananas sitting […]

Chicken Salad — The Shared Plate
Is there anything to dislike about chicken salad? Unless you are a vegetarian or vegan, or you don’t care for mayonnaise (Amy . . . ), what is there not to love? Tender supple chicken accompanied by a crisp crunch of celery, a little sweetness from the fruit of choice, all brought together by a delicate […]

Chocolate Birthday Cake with Chocolate Frosting — The Shared Plate
If you didn’t know already, I have an absolute obsession with cake. Coconut Cake, Ice Cream Cake, Polenta Cake . . . it doesn’t matter—I love it all! But sometimes nothing will do except rich, moist chocolate cake slathered with creamy, chocolate buttercream frosting, and this cake is exactly that. It’s at once homey, impressive, […]
Pane Bianco — The Shared Plate
When I first laid eyes on a photo of this golden and curvy loaf of Pane Bianco, I was in awe and intrigued. As a baking newbie, I was intimidated by the gorgeous loaf until I read the recipe. Very little special equipment is required, (a stand mixer or rolling mat aren’t necessarily required, they […]
