This simple, rustic skillet cake is bursting with juicy ripe nectarines. It's the perfect simple, summer dessert--or breakfast! One of my favorite places to go with Owen on a lazy weekend afternoon is our local fruit and vegetable stand. It's actually quite large, really more of a market, and ...

Marble Rye Pound Cake

Marble Rye Pound Cake

February 5, 2016 7 Comments

What if a marble pound cake and a marble rye got married? Deep thoughts, guys. Last week, I was emailing with my friend Meredith about home decorating. She has such a great sense of style, and I...don't. I have a very specific creative skill set, and that is food. Outside of the kitchen, I'm at ...

Whole Wheat Dairy-Free Blackberry Cake

Whole Wheat Dairy-Free Blackberry Cake

June 23, 2015 2 Comments

I have a real problem with cakes like this one. I tend to store them on the counter, with a butter knife leaning against the plate, so that it's all too easy to slice off just a tiny piece I swear whenever I walk past. You know, just to even out the edges. At least in this case it's relatively ...

My very first recipe testing job was for The Veselka Cookbook. One summer, 125 Ukrainian recipes. You guys, I made so. many. perogies. And also five kinds of borscht.
