Sour Cream Coffee Cake
Yesterday, I had a crummy, stressful day at work. It was one of those days when the higher-ups are freaking out about an impossible deadline at the end of the week, getting everyone else all stirred up and anxious, only to find out later that the deadline is actually two weeks away. It was frustrating and tiring.How to Prep a Butternut Squash
Recently, I praised butternut squash for its mild sweetness and versatility — but I was surprised when so many of you said you'd never prepared one before, or find it hard to work with. Since it'd be a bummer to miss out on this Fall vegetable at home (unless you can afford $400 for an automated butternut squash peeler!), I thought I'd help you out with instructions on how to prep it yourself. Here's a step-by-step lesson.
Making Bread
I made a loaf of rosemary focaccia today and unfortunately am a little disappointed. It's a bit too dense and rose too much while baking. It's still good, just not awesome. I think I added too much flour.Pretty Pronto Peanut Butter Cookies

Powderhorn Potatoes
Everyone will tell you they have a hashbrown casserole, they have some cheesy potatoes, they’ve got some Campbell’s soup slop recipe. Read my lips: They are full of shit.
It’s these, baby.
Soup-tastic Adventures: ugh.
That's the sound I make when I don't feel well. Ugh. And I sneeze a lot.
Creamed Corn
Growing up my mom would make home made creamed corn on holidays or special occasions. She would cut the tips of the fresh corn then scrape the remainder into a bowl. Just to get a bowl full for a meal, she would have to use about 30 ears of corn.
