Trial, Error & Fig Bars
I need a pastry cutter. It started out so simply… So straightforward… But, like everything else in my life, if it seems too easy, I’ll over-complicate it. I don’t plan it that way, it just happens. I had seen this recipe on one of my very favorite blogs (she’s local, too!), and couldn’t wait to…

Baking in Daylight
Weekends are awesome. Not only because I sleep in until at least 8:00AM (what do you mean that’s not sleeping in?), but because I get to take pictures in natural light. I realize that if you’re not a food blogger, that might not sound like a big deal, but it’s kind of a big deal.…
