Where Cooking Meets Photography
I’m going to let you all in on a little secret. I really like lasagna, but sometimes (most of the time) I find it a bit tedious because of all the steps and the layering and the long baking and the cooling time. Who has that kind of time? I …
I’ve been going to the same woman who cuts my hair for years now. I don’t trust anyone else to be honest, and the day she retires will be the day I stop getting haircuts. I say this because a while ago she shared with me her recipe for mole. …
I’m a huge fan of chicken katsu, but when you really think about it, what’s not to love about extra-crispy fried chicken? There’s a Hawaiian/Japanese place near my house and I always order chicken katsu there and I’ll usually take some and put it in a sweet Hawaiian roll with …
I love British sausage rolls so much, but sometimes they’re a pain to make, especially if making the pastry from scratch. Traditionally they’re a herbed and spiced minced meat sausage roll wrapped in flaky puff pastry. They’re so good and worth the effort but sometimes we simply don’t have the …
I know that technically it’s been Spring for a while now but honestly, I’ve just barely started to get into the seasonal spirit of it all. I love this time of year because it’s finally not too cold, and it’s just before it becomes unbearably hot. It makes cooking fun, …

When I think of fajitas, all I can think of is that sizzling plate coming through the restaurant as everyone turns to look at who ordered it. Smoke everywhere. Literally. Even in your clothes and it’ll stay there forever. It’s an experience. I normally don’t order it because of said …
Easter is this Sunday, which I feel like came out of nowhere fast. I mean, I know it comes every year and it isn’t really a surprise but I do feel like I was caught off guard this year. That might just be a personal problem because my mother’s birthday …
With Easter coming up soon, I know we all probably have carrot cake on the brain. I’m the first to always whip one up year after year. This time around though I wanted to throw some non-cake, carrot cake recipes into the ring. Over the past few years, I’ve tried …
Chorizo Gnocchi Chilaquiles is a lazy weekend breakfast or brunch dish that you can whip up literally in less than half and hour. It uses a lot of help from the store, but that’s okay. Sometimes we just want to be in and out of the kitchen as quick and …
