Sweet friends, hello. I hope this post finds you well, with a not too long to-do list, and a large enough supply of coffee to get you through it. If it makes you feel better about your list: my list has items carried over from …
Happy Thursday, friends! How on earth are you? Has this week felt as busy for you as it has for us? I feel like we’ve been going going going and there’s still so much on my to-do list, namely grocery shopping and laundry – but …
Hello friends! How are you this fine Tuesday? While I sat gazing at our Christmas tree the other day, something awful dawned on me. As of right now, there are only, like, three festive recipes up on the blog – and they were shared way …
Sweet, sweet friends, hi! I’ve got such a treat for you today: Perfect All-Butter Pie Dough. For years I’ve been scouring both the internet and cookbooks for the perfect pie dough recipe. A few years ago, I found Yossi Arefi‘s recipe and I – mistakenly …
Friends, hello. How are you? I hope this post finds you well wrapped up against the autumnal winds. There is a near constant haze of drizzle outside our windows lately, and I’ve been battling it the best way I know how: baking. Breads, cheesecakes, ice-creams, …
Friends, hi! Happy Thursday! Please forgive my tardiness in bringing this post to you one day late – I am sorry. I was having an off day of sorts yesterday & I had to make a baked custard tart for my PUFF course. Let me …
Hi friends! How is your summer shaping up? We’re doing pretty well over here, all things Covid-19/work/general life considered. The heat isn’t exactly something we love, but we’re coping by staying extra hydrated and seeking out shade. Due to all the socially distant garden visits …
Sweet, sweet friends – hi! Thanks for stopping by for today’s recipe: Roasted Pecan Apple Pie with Cinnamon Crumble. Today marks the 15th day of our Covid-19 induced self-isolation. For the most part, we’re doing pretty fine. We’re keeping busy, trying to limit the number of …
Hi friends! I hope today’s post finds you cozy & warm – it’s bloody freezing out there! I don’t know about where you are, but here in Dublin it feels like it could start snowing at any second. There’s frost on the grass in the …
Do you remember way back in November’s Monthly Musings post when I told you I was “low-key obsessed” with a new cookbook, Sister Pie? That was a lie. I was – and still am – much more obsessed than what could ever be described as “low-key”. …
Real talk: can you ever have too many pie bar recipes? The answer must be no, because on my blog alone we already have four variations. Apple & Raspberry, Pecan, Plum & Blackberry, and a very early recipe for Lemon & Blueberry. It’s important to …
I know what you’re thinking: more pie? Can’t she even go four posts before blogging about pie again? Well, it would seem that I can’t. Having said that, this isn’t just any pie – this is a cider caramel apple pie from Erin’s fabulous book ‘The …
It’s time to admit it: I am addicted to making pie. I can barely go a week without making some form or other. Double crust, single crust, pie-crumble hybrids, hand pies. Usually all-butter dough, but sometimes a buttermilk flavoured one. All types of fillings are …
Is it entirely blasphemous to say that I was never really all that into strawberries? I’d snack on them if they were sitting in front of me, I’d enjoy them as the garnish, but I was never entirely wowed. Clearly, I had never had a …
A few weeks ago, Boyfriend’s parents treated us to a staycation in Kerry. The trip promised to be relaxing retreat, where we’d spend some QT with Boyfriend’s family. It was a no-brainer. We booked the time off work, packed for all weather types, planned our …
Today’s post was originally an incredibly delicious Maple Syrup Apple Upside-down Cake, but it was just so damn ugly that I simply couldn’t bring myself to actually share it. I’d already edited the photos & written the post, but I just couldn’t post it. Is …
Now that the Pumpkin Pie post is out of the way, we can finally talk about pie that actually tastes as good as it looks. Hallelujah! Welcome to part three of the apple fest, friends! Like all good things, it’s salted and pumped full of autumnal …
