Cookie Recipes (some sourdough, some not)

calling all cookie monsters
There are few things greater than a homemade cookie, still warm, gooey, and fresh from the oven. I know I’ve been talking a lot about back-to-school recipes lately, but ‘tis the season and cookies deserved their very own dedicated newsletter. Cookies are a classic lunchbox treat, after school snack, and teacher or bus driver gift. They’re also perfect f…

Before You Say Goodbye to Summer…

End-of-Summer Treats for Every Gathering
School is starting back up all over, which made me realize that summer is slowly coming to an end. And honestly? After countless 100°F+ days and more than a few tornado warnings, I’m more than ready for cooler temperatures. I won’t say I’m wishing summer away, but I certainly won’t complain when that first crisp morning rolls around. 😉

The 305 Calorie Protein Brookie: The 4 Boy Taste Test

Whenever I see one of those MASSIVE dessert recipes on Instagram that somehow claims to be low calorie, high protein AND healthy, I am immediately skeptical 😂 I mean, come on. You are telling me I can eat something that looks like a giant brownie and cookie the size of Baby Ashton’s head, has 32 grams of protein, is only 305 calories AND it’s actually …

Oatmeal Raisin Zucchini Cookies

The perfect back-to-school lunchbox treat – super-moist and oh-so chewy oatmeal raisin zucchini cookies. Trust me, the kids won’t even know there’s a vegetable hidden inside.
If you’re looking for a seasonal spin on classic oatmeal raisin cookies, add some grated zucchini to the dough. I know what you’re thinking – why ruin a delicious oatmeal raisin cookie recipe by adding zucchini? Trust me on this; these cookies are perfectly sweetened, super soft, very chewy, and ultra-moist thanks to the grated zucchini hidden inside.

Recipe number nine: cinnamon swirl cookies

I wasn’t convinced that this recipe would work, but it’s actually ended up becoming one of my favourite cookies yet. It uses my classic brown butter cookie dough base with a very generous amount of cinnamon, butter and sugar swirled throughout (think the filling of a cinnamon bun). The ripples of cinnamon sugar caramelise in the oven, resulting in a cri…

In my family it was Grandma Veeder’s oatmeal cookies recipe . After she passed we were never sure which amounts for the ingredients were correct.

I Came Home From Culinary School & Now I Can’t Stop Cooking

Apparently Six Weeks of Cooking Wasn’t Enough...A LOT Has Been Happening in My Kitchen, Haha!
To be honest, I’m still reeling from my summer in London at culinary school AND still adjusting to the time change. I’m not sure why I’m struggling so much to acclimate this time around, but wow, it’s been way rougher than usual!

A Sere and Pleasant Land

Birthday cake for dogs, plus: England, Harry, Meghan and living through the Blitz.
The fields and lawns in England were sere and hay-colored this summer. Our regular trip to visit my husband’s mum was punctuated by frequent emergency alerts about wildfires less than 50 miles away.

God help me, I dipped into the As Ever site. The jam is overpriced and the videos smarmy but I have to say, at least Megs dresses nicely, doesn’t advocate patent medicines, dubious medical advice and shoving stone eggs up one’s patootie.

I loved hearing your MIL’s story. In the early days of both Covid & my waiting-to-be-diagnosed painful rheumatoid arthritis, I decided to paint the outside of our house. (Remember how we were all a little crazier than usual then?) I made it most of the way before I had to call in a professional, but what kept me working through some tough days was remembering my grandma who painted her house at 80. I have the newspaper clipping showing her on a very high ladder. She was a physically tough and emotionally loving Iowa farm woman. ❤️


Caramel Coconut Levain Inspired Cookies

I am obsessed with these.
This has to be one of the best Levain flavors & boy oh boy did I MISS IT. It’s like if a thick, bakery-style chocolate chip cookie and a Samoa cookie had a wee baby.
