  • Vanilla Spiced Pear Cocktail

    Vanilla Spiced Pear Cocktail

    Over the weekend, I had the BEST cocktail. I actually had no idea what I was ordering or what was in it, but still took on the challenge of remaking it 😉 I went out to Broderick’s Roadhouse with my family on Friday to try their vegan chef challenge menu. I actually ordered off their…

  • Lazy Woman’s Five Minute Horchata

    I am SO proud of myself. I made horchata at home. It took approximately 3 minutes. (Five sounds better in the title, but that includes cleanup time, guys!!!) After having horchata a couple times recently from my favorite local tamale food truck, I decided I should really learn to make it myself. I just love…

  • World’s Easiest Cinnamon Rolls

    I wasn’t planning to turn these into a post, as they were just a spur-of-the-moment Christmas morning treat.  But I snapped some pictures of them, and the pictures turned out pretty well and the cinnamon rolls are even better.  So I had to share. Preston left Christmas morning to go see his family, and I had…

  • Cinnamon Apple Oatmeal Smoothie

    Got a smoothie for you today with some weird ingredients.  Oatmeal (but you’ve seen me do that again and again! and again! ) and an apple.  Blended with some more common smoothie ingredients.  It’s cinnamony deliciousness first thing in the morning.  That tastes like oatmeal cookie batter.  Soooo happy.

Worth it. I was really excited about my idea to crush up Cinnamon Toast Crunch and coat french…

  • Maple & Cinnamon Spiced Kale Juice

    Hello, lovely readers!  I am sooo sorry if you’re having troubles viewing my blog today and yesterday – I am trying so hard to fix the problem, but I simply don’t know how.  I am probably one of the lowest-tech bloggers ever.  If anybody out there might know how to make that stupid ‘Authentication Required’…

  • Slow-Cooked Cinnamon Applesauce

    It’s my first Apple Week recipe!  I am starting the week with my new favorite recipe.  Now maybe it’s my awesome Apple Hill apples.  But this is the sweetest most delicious and satisfying applesauce I’ve ever tasted, and I had no idea a simple dish like applesauce could be so incredibly wonderful.  Plus, it took…

  • Moscato & Cinnamon Poached Pears

    I love this pretty little dessert!  It’s beautiful and elegant, and very light.   Plus way simpler than you’d think.   You really just have to throw some things in a pot to simmer and peel some pears.  Yes, it’s that easy.

  • Oatmeal Cookie Pancakes w/ Cinnamon Maple Frosting

      Oooookay.  These pancakes taste like cookies.  Amazingly wonderful frosted cookies.   I got the idea for these while eating an oatmeal cookie whoopie pie with cinnamon buttercream filling from Sugar Plum Vegan in Sacramento.  Mmmmm.Â
