Indian Red Coconut Curry + Homemade Pitas (Vegan)
Who’s in the mood for some Indian food? Because it’s really something you have to love and be in the mood for, although this recipe might be an exception. I’m pretty sure I’d eat this everyday and still not get tired of it. I didn’t get the chance to find out because it was devoured really fast. I’m not sure exactly what it is, maybe it’s the coconut milk, but once you have one taste you just don’t want to stop. I went with a more mild kick this time because the last time I made a curry I way underestimated the amount of kick in the green curry paste that I was…

Caramel Pear Swirled Streusel Babka
My internet is down at the present moment and so I’m writing this out the old fashioned with pen and paper. I’ll type it out later to post (which, if you’re reading it now I have obviously done already). As I’m writing it though, I’m realizing that I need to write like this more often because I much prefer it to typing. Mostly that’s because I’m a terrible typer, but also because it feels so much more personal. It’s like the difference between talking to someone in person versus by email or text. It’s real and tangible, I love that. I know I’ll sound like a broken record here, because I’ve already told you…

Rainbow Veggie Hummus Pizza & Everything Bagel Crust (Vegan)
It’s time for some Friday food and to me that needs to be something awesome! Um, is there such a thing as being too excited, and is there a word for it? ‘Cause that word would really apply to me right now. I’m like over-the-top psyched about this one you guys! It’s probably my favorite pizza EVER! I mean did you read the title? Did you see it! That’s right, it’s on an everything bagel crust! I don’t even know when I got this idea, seriously. I was making a bunch of pizzas a few days ago, like I do almost every week, and I realized that it’s been way too long since…

Watermelon, Pomegranate, & Mint Slushies (Vegan+GF)
I got a haircut a few days ago and it has taken me until now to decide that it’s too short. I’ve always hated when my hair is in between. You know, when it’s too short to be considered long but too long to be considered short. Medium hair is like the sad middle child in a family. The one that doesn’t automatically inherit the identity of being the oldest or the youngest. Basically, I’m feeling like my hair should just go home and rethink it’s life. Maybe I should do that too. Actually I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately and my head hits overload every once in a while. I…

Naked Carrot Cake with Coconut Cream Frosting (Vegan+GF)
Blogging this past year has made me realize a lot of things about myself that I never knew. One of which is the fact that I might be obsessed with cake. I wouldn’t have thought so but recently I’ve just wanted to bake cakes. So you know how I was talking about fads the other day? Yeah, well, the “naked” cake look is another one of those that is really in right now and I’ve been on the fence about how I feel about it. For a while I thought I’d never do a cake like that because cake decorating is basically in my blood. Both my mother and my grandmother have been…

Simple Fresh Strawberry Turnovers (Vegan)
Simple. Fresh. Easy. These words are what I’m feeling today should be. I’m going to keep things short, sweet, and simple. I spend way too much time these days feeling rushed and crammed trying to get everything done. I started this blog as a creative outlet and something to fill up my extra time. Oh boy, does it fill up the time, but the point is that it is supposed to be fun. Being in the kitchen and creating delicious, sometimes crazy, always messy foods for the people I love is something that makes me happy and I love to share that with you guys. But recently I’ve been starting to dread writing posts…

Harvest Time Apple Streusel Swirl Bread (Vegan)
Are you in the mood for some warm, yeasty bread, sweet apples, cinnamon spice, and plenty of crumbly streusel! I don’t think there will ever be any question whether or not this is one of the best flavor combinations known to man. Ah, it’s so good! By now you’re probably starting to catch on to the fact that I like to recreate my family’s favorite foods. Things that we don’t have access to in Chile. I enjoy the challenge. This is one of my recent attempts to copy a classic. One of my sisters used to have this slight obsession with apple bread and she’s been missing it a lot since moving…
