When it comes to desserts, I'm not the biggest fan of the cookie category. My husband begs to differ. With just the 2 of us in the apartment, it's just not worth it to bake a whole batch of cookies since my husband will eat the majority of it. This cookie recipe will whip up [...]
This is probably my favorite DIY, period. Making my own dryer balls was probably one of my first zero waste switches. My skin is very sensitive to synthetic fragrances. Dryer sheets makes my skin very itchy, so I've always opted not to use them. Also, there are some debate out there that dryer sheets might [...]
I am never buying granola again. It's nothing against store-bought granola. It's just that I go through so much granola in a week that it can get quite expensive. Also, granola typically come in unrecyclable packaging, which doesn't align with my zero waste values. The granola options in the bulk bins are definitely some [...]
This cream cheese pie recipe is from my husband's grandmother. She makes this for many special occasions. I am fortunate enough to have a slice every time I visited. It's so yummy, and feels lighter than cheesecake. This tastes great with a berry syrup topping, or just fresh berries. Now that I'm a part of [...]
Potatoes Au Gratin has got to be my favorite potato dish. But typically the recipe calls for at least a cup of cheese. This scalloped potatoes recipe has the creaminess of Potatoes Au Gratin, but without the excess calories. This recipe mimics the creaminess and thickness of Au Gratin potatoes by making a roux that [...]
My sister-in-law is a fan of food blogs. Her favorite food blog is by this Taiwanese-American woman who lives in the Bay Area (like herself). She is a mom and housewife who manages to cook up delicious meals while adorning designer labels. #Goals. Today, I'm going to attempt that by showing you a recipe that [...]
This is my all-time favorite body butter recipe. I make big batches of this over the holidays as handmade gifts. You can buy all of the ingredients in either minimal packaging or simply package free. It's so luxurious and it has improved my skin drastically. The great thing about this is that you can customize [...]
This is my all-time favorite holiday cookie! I'm usually not the biggest cookie fan, but with these, I can eat it by the handful. What I love about these chocolate chunk peppermint cookies is that it is so easy to make. You can make the dough ahead of time and bake when ready. Or [...]
Nothing says "Good Morning" like a warm, fresh out of the oven, chocolate chip muffin. This recipe is so easy, it can be made for the days when you don't have a lot of time in the morning, but still want something baked, fluffy, and delicious. There is an optional sugar topping, which creates that [...]
Everybody knows I love gnocchi. This year for Valentine's Day, my boyfriend and I decided to cook the same meal and enjoy it together over Skype (curse you, 2000 miles). Confession time, I lost the recipe link he sent me 3 hours before I was supposed to make the darn thing. All that I [...]
