ceReal World: Breakfast Table

Nobody can say no to the chocolate covered O's in chocolate covered cheerios.


...especially when they're baked into the breakfast appropriate cookie base of whole wheat oatmeal raisin.


There's nothing wrong with a spoonful of cookie.


Makes the medicine go down, no?

I feel I have the authority to say this now that I've completed some classes in color theory.

10Oreo


Today is Oreo's 100th birthday!
And it's been a loooong day
I say it's about time to wrap things up [in chocolate chips].

Happy Oreo Centennial!

cake your pick


What do you get when you put Valentine's candy, coffee, measuring cups, almond milk, and an iPad together?
That would be my recent baking venture--peanut butter cup cake cookies.
Something cakey, something sweet, something vegan, something whole wheat.
You should put a Reese's on top--or maybe hide the peanut butter in the center. It's the surprise party of cookies.
Go ahead, cake your day.

Always funfetti.

Funfetti geared up for Super Bowl Sunday.

the tart of a beautiful friendship

Sometimes you make lemon curd and then it is all you can think about. Your friends have probably heard more about this lemon curd than you realized you could share.


Also, you may love Pop-Tarts but that doesn't come up as much.


Eventually, there will come a time when your friends meet your current infatuation. It should probably include some pastry.


And, if you like it then you should put a sprinkle on it.

some kind of sugar and spice

Here's a fact about giving people cookies, they often respond with 'Ooooh, what kind are they?'. And in this case I legitimately didn't know.


I used a recipe for brown sugar cookies, but I didn't have brown sugar...then I added super dark chocolate to half of them.


Since these cookies are heavy on the cinnamon, I billed them as cinnamon [chocolate chip] cookies. Then the cookie receivers respond 'Ooooh, cinnamon.' And everything in the world seems right.
