Learn – {Chocolate Bourbon Pecan Pie}

Occasionally, I wonder how different I would be if I had been born into a family of bakers. I wonder if I’d still be baking if I’d learned, as a child, to speak the language of dough. I wonder if the beauty of butter would still fascinate me, or if the magic of eggs would…

Dinner – {Spiced Fig and Pear Turnovers}

Dinner has become, in every way, “quick.” In some ways, this is good. Recently, I was quite thrilled to discover that I could cook a whole chicken in the crock pot. The fruits of the “labor,” if I can even call it that, were two fold: not only did I have enough protein for three…

Peachy – {Almond Tart with Stone Fruit and Lime Meringue}

Grandma F once complimented how smoothly I was able to cut paper. I was with my cousins at her dining room table, doodling and crafting with the clunky uncoordinated hands of my 7-year-old self. I don’t remember what we were making, but I was damn proud. It’s been 17 years, and I still can’t use…

Babysitter – {PB&J Pie with Strawberries, Cinnamon, & Peanut Butter Pie Crust}

I had been careful to select her favorite from the four fruit spreads that the family kept in their fridge: a jar of freakishly perfect looking strawberry jelly, wholly devoid of character and happiness. I held it carefully as I perused the pantry, searching for a jar of peanut butter that hadn’t been marked with…

Mistaken – {Cherry Limeade Turnovers}

All my life, I thought fruit turnovers were those nasty fruit pies they sell in checkout aisles. Up until Friday, in all of my 24 years, I’ve had none of the former, and – I think – two of the latter. Both, I’m assuming, gifts from my sweet grandparents; lovingly undermining my parents’ “no sugar…
