Snowdrop Cookies.
As it’s 80 degrees outside consistently day to day now, it’s time to retire cake for breakfast. It’s officially the end of spring, or summer if the sky would have us believe and while cake is appropriate for cold weather breakfast, cookies are the new hot thing for endless summer days. One day, yes, all [...]

Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Polenta.
Sometimes you want a bowl of comfort for breakfast and what’s more, you want it savory. None of that creamy oatmeal drizzled with maple syrup and topped with brown sugar nonsense. Nope, none of that. Though that can be nice too, I’m never one to knock sugar… But sometimes, what you’d rather have is a [...]

Blueberry Coffee Cake Loaf.
Some of the best things to wander into a kitchen and find in the mornings are swirled and covered with streusel. Though to be fair, some of the best things ever, regardless of time and location are swirled and covered with streusel. I’m breakfast-cake addicted, as this lemon loaf and pound cake prove. There is [...]

Paula Deen Pound Cake.
Cake for breakfast. It’s happened again. A slice of pound cake, barely toasted and drizzled with honey sure is a great way to greet the day. I believe I’ve settled it—the correct time for cake is no longer solely post-meal for dessert but rather, as the meal, first and foremost. Breakfast, being the lovely flexible [...]

A few days ago I woke up, made a pot of coffee, and then realized, much to my stomach’s unfortunate state of emptiness, that there was nothing to eat for breakfast. Nothing, not even something inappropriate like cold pizza, grilled cheese, quesadillas or other appropriated lunch foods. And so, faced with skipping breakfast and getting [...]

Doughnut Vault.
Hello doughnut altar, you’re just what I wanted to see at eight in the morning. Tangy buttermilk old fashioned, yeasty chestnut glazed, and sweet chocolate with sprinkles. Yup, this is my kind of mass. At 400 1/2 North Franklin, in a world not so far away, is a little hole of a place. It’s a [...]

Orange Poppy Seed Cake.
Sometimes cake is complicated. It’s high maintenance. It has four layers, two kinds of filling, and a whipped meringue frosting. It has to be refrigerated. It absolutely needs glitter. Oh yea, and that gold dust as well. Sometimes cake requires Q-tips, skewers, and brushes to assemble. Sometimes, you have to roll the cake, flip it [...]

Coffee Toffee Ice Cream.
“Coffee and toffee is my favorite ice cream combination.” That’s all a birthday girl needs to say and POOF. Coffee Toffee Ice Cream. Yes, another’s birthday is really just an excuse to make ice cream. You caught me. But look, can you blame me? It’s a tale/flavor combination as old as time—coffee and toffee. Coffee [...]
