This pie was by far my favorite out of any at the pie-eating contest, and I’m definitely going to try to squeeze in another one before all the blueberries disappear from the supermarket shelves (or the prices rise dramatically as they are shipped in from lands far far away). People were clamoring to get [...]

It was peaches again in the farm share this week, and although I love summer fruits, it’s been so hot and humid this week that I’ve been more interested in eating the cool cucumbers and lovely tomatoes they’ve sent along instead.

I love baking with pumpkin, but during the summer months, dense pumpkin breads with deep, spicy tastes like cloves and nutmeg can really weigh you down. Many of my recipes originate from having something in the fridge that was about to go off, and in this case, it was blueberries. I thought about mixing pumpkin [...]
