Sherry-Dijon Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Onions

December 4, 2013 by Erica

Sherry-Dijon Roasted Brussels Sprouts and Onions

Thank you so much for all your sweet comments on Monday’s post! They mean so much. Nate and I could not be happier. Life is good!

I hadn’t counted on starting wedding planning quite so early, but venues book up fast! We had to start looking if we wanted any chance of getting married in 2014… and we may have found a place! Fingers crossed, but I think we will be getting married next fall. Hooray!

I wasn’t really looking forward to all the planning – I usually procrastinate this kind of thing until I’m completely dreading it. Luckily I have my mom, who so far is the world’s best wedding planner. How I would plan this thing without her, I have no idea. It turns out wedding planning is a ton of fun when someone else is doing all the work!

I hope you’ll put up with occasional wedding talk on here. I am slightly worried I’m not going to be able to talk about anything else for the next 10 months.

And this is the part when I transition seamlessly from wedding talk to Brussels sprouts.

Pecan Pie Rice Krispie Treats (Vegan)

November 29, 2013 by Erica

Pecan Pie Rice Krispie Treats (Vegan)

Happy day after Thanksgiving! I made you pie… kind of. Rice Krispie treat pie?

I’m sharing this recipe with you today not so much because I think you have a Rice Krispie treat craving (you probably don’t), but because if you made pecan pie for yesterday, you probably have most of these ingredients already. And if you try to shove that half bottle of corn syrup back in your overcrowded cabinet, something else – probably something stinky, sticky and dark colored, and in a glass bottle, because that’s how these things work – is going to come shooting out and explode all over your counter. Not to mention that next time you go to make a pecan pie, you will definitely have forgotten that you already have the corn syrup, and you’ll buy another bottle, use half of that one, and then try to wedge it into your cabinet as well. Not that I’m speaking from experience or anything… and please don’t count the half bottles of corn syrup in my cabinet.

Pumpkin Maple Pecan Bourbon Ice Cream (Vegan)

Pumpkin Maple Pecan Bourbon Ice Cream (Vegan)

It finally happened – I reunited with my ice cream maker!

It’s been a few months since we painfully broke off our summer romance. But pumpkin season seemed like a pretty good excuse for another little fling.

Now, I’m not so sure that today is the day for recipes. I mean, do you already have your Thanksgiving menu planned? Probably. And I, for one, will not be cooking anything too adventurous between now and then. However, I thought this might be my last chance to share something pumpkin-related with you in 2013, so I just couldn’t resist. This recipe is too good to stash away for a year!

Easy Italian Orzo and White Bean Soup

November 20, 2013 by Erica

Easy Italian Orzo and White Bean Soup

It’s time for another soup! The easiest, peasiest, cheesiest soup in the land.

OK, maybe not the cheesiest. That would probably be this one. Today’s soup is actually vegan… with an optional dumping of parmesan cheese.

Easy Italian Orzo and White Bean Soup

I know we’re in Thanksgiving planning mode, and this is not a Thanksgiving soup. That doesn’t make it any less perfect for this time of year, though, because it is a quick and easy pantry soup – perfect for making a big batch of when your next few evenings are going to be filled with holiday prep, or even for throwing together when your family gets into town and you realize that they will be here for days, but you have only planned a single meal.

So yes, my family will probably be seeing this soup next week.
