What foods are you really missing in this pandemic? I miss Cartem’s donuts, of course. I miss the truffle fries at Lift or at Joey’s, which I usually share with my BFF and a side of gossip. I miss trying out new-to-me places. One of

Last week, I shared the internet craze with you called “Cloud Coffee” or “Dalgona Coffee.” It’s this method of whipping up instant coffee with sugar and water that makes it into a mousse- or cloud-like consistency. You then spoon it over hot or cold milk

Okay, I’m kind of embarrassed about this one. But stick with me, there’s a good explanation! So, I am not the type to jump on a bandwagon. In fact, I often avoid them. If something is a “trend,” I’m usually doing my best to not

Easy Spiced Chocolate Christmas Cookies

Pretty much ever since I can remember, I’ve been making and giving away cookies at Christmas. I like it. I feel like there aren’t a lot of homemade gifts in the world these days, and I also feel like most people (unlike me) don’t have

Commercial Drive Bakeries

I am a girl who likes her sweets. I love a good bakery. And a cluster of them together??!? Pure gold. You can walk from one to the next, and that, my friends, burns calories so you can have an extra cookie or a slice
