This post is in partnership with KitchenAid. You can find past posts here and here. With the extra time at home these days, I’ve been getting back into the kitchen more than I had been for awhile. Like most folks, we’ve also been going to the grocery store less, and we tend to go with a set list to make things simpler, so that has meant ...

jianbing strata
There is room yet for cinnamon rolls and cookies and hot chocolate on our Christmas morning breakfast spread, and I have plans aplenty to make all of these between now and Tuesday. But this strata, a little bit eccentric but a lot a bit amazing, has just muscled its way onto the table. I vaguely recall first learning of jianbing, the street cart ...

cookies and christmas pjs
Hi! In less than three days, we're jumping on (or, more accurately, "squeezing a toddler and many bags and a stroller and a car seat onto") a plane and heading to Hawaii for the first time since our two-bowl household became a three-bowl one. There are aunties and uncles and cousins for Luke to meet for the first time, beaches to explore, galbi ...
super savory greens with lap cheong and garlic
We are now solidly into the magical stretch between Thanksgiving and Christmas, that no-holds-barred span of weeks that I typically use to indulge all of my wildest cookie and hot cocoa and cinnamon roll whims, and yet, much to my dismay, I've spent most of it so far thinking about, not chocolate or candy canes or marshmallows, but vegetables.
