Russian Black Bread
I got inspired to make bread (thank you Bustednuckles) and didn’t want to just toss together a quick n’ easy loaf. So… This one. Dark, a touch bitter, complex, chewy, and takes all daggone day to make. So worth it. Note that this is a very heavy bread dough. I love my stand mixer…

Mediterranean Frittata
On the weekend, I eat breakfast. Or brunch, as the case may be. I skip it all week, in favor of intermittent fasting. But on the weekend! My dear First Reader makes me amazing omelettes. They are a mainstay here at the Nut House for dinners, when I come in tired and we don’t…

Blood Orange Ricotta Cake
This recipe came out of two things: first, I had ricotta that needed to be used up, and blood oranges to do something with. Two, my dear son had taken the bit between his teeth and was raring to make a cooking video. Without further ado, the recipe: Blood Orange Ricotta Cake Preheat the…

Guest Post: Jello, Amie!
This post is from Amie Gibbons, my friend and fellow author, who just launched another book! I have a little reflected glow of pride, here, since I did the cover for her. Amie is prolific and a wonderfully fun author, and she wanted to celebrate her launch. Since I’m not able to do Eat…

Apricot Cheese Scones
My sister asked me when I posted a photo of these, ‘are they dry and heavy?’ No they are not! My scones rarely are, unless I make them super dense by adding bits and nuts and stuff. These are, I suspect because of the cheese, light and tender even for my scones. I was…

Eat This While You Read That: Toni Weisskopf
Toni sent me this, along with a book recommendation, and of course I was going to use it. Her buckeyes are fantastic, and plentiful (if, like me, you’re planning a smaller Christmas in 2020, you can reduce the size to a quarter of the recipe and still get great results. This is a wonderful…

No-Bake Low-Carb Caramel Mocha Cheesecake
And yes, it’s as good as that title makes it sound! Not easy, but then again, when is anything that is worth the effort? First off, if you are like me and don’t have coffee extract in your pantry, start this recipe a week ahead of plan. Coffee Extract 1 c vodka (or any…

Eat This While You Read That: AM Freeman
As a busy mother, there was one thing I knew all four of the children would eat, every time I put it in front of them: waffles. Adding berries and whipped cream? It’s a celebration! So when AM Freeman suggested I pair waffles and berries with her new book, Marymae and the Nightmare Man,…

Low-Carb Apple Bread
I was making those Apple Handpies for the rest of the family and a friend, and in order to stay on the diet and reduce my temptation levels, I came up with this recipe. Note that as-is, it is not gluten free. On the other hand, you could leave that out, and (probably) the…

Apple Handpies
“Can you make apple handpies? I want to send some to work with Toodles.” Well, yes. I can. But you know I’m going to play with the concept first! Apple Handpies (with Bacon and Brown Sugar and Maybe Cheese) In a large cast iron skillet, melt together over high heat: 2 tbsp butter, salted…

Eat This While You Read That: D Wayne Harbison
When I started ETWYRT, some three or four years ago now, I was only reaching out to authors I knew and in most cases, considered friends. That has changed over the years as I have decided that this little promo series – and it is, for those of you who came here for the…

Eat This While You Read That: Bokerah Brumley
Bokerah’s got a new book out, and what better way to explore her book about searching for a lost book than by sitting down, reading, and munching tabouli (tabbouleh? So many spellings!). Grab a copy of The Book of Power, and get ready for dragons, jinns, and a search for a book that may…
