If you follow me on Instagram, you know I’m on there a lot. Like, a lot a lot. But this past Sunday I dropped off the face of the digital earth. I did this for one simple reason: my parents were in town and it just happened to be Mother’s Day. Yes, I finally had the honor of actually spending Mother’s Day with my mom. Something I hadn’t done for 10 years. So yeah, I took a digital time out and whipped up these Banana Dulce de Leche Danishes for the nice lady who birthed me. The moral of this story is: if you have to make up for a 10-year lapse in anything, do it with homemade croissant dough. You’ll get the results you’re looking for, I promise.
Carrot Cake Brioche Buns with Goat Cheese Glaze
Happy Easter! Boy, do I have an Easter Monday brunch idea for you. These Carrot Cake Brioche Buns are sure to surprise and delight. But please don’t mistake these beauties for an Easter-only delight. I’m really not about that. These buns are good for any ol’ brunch. And since carrots are pretty much always in season, why limit yourself? Trust me you’re gonna want to make these more than once and I doubt you’ll want to wait until next April.
Pimento Cheese Tuna Melt

Ever fall down an Internet rabbit hole? Stupid question, of course, you have. None of us are immune to the easy charms of Google. You innocently Google one thing and that leads to another thing and suddenly it’s 2:30 am, you really have to pee, and your leg is asleep. Most of us are guilty of falling down a black hole of celebrity intrigue, nostalgia-driven YouTube hopping and/or intentionally fruitless online “shopping”. But I’m willing to wager that few have spent the better part of a day Googling a cheese sauce. This is something I did in real life and am now admitting to on the Internets. And while I’ll admit the nerdiness is, well, embarrassing, it did lead to this Pimento Cheese Tuna Melt. So, there’s that.
Chipotle Baked Eggs with Black Beans
Happy New Year’s Eve everyone! I hope you all have some bubbly chilling and your shiny resolutions on delay because this is the last day of the holiday season when calories and alcohol percentages don’t count. So, whoop it up and deal with the consequences tomorrow. I swear it won’t be that bad and even if it is these Chipotle Baked Eggs with Black Beans will make it all better. Well, most of it. Baked eggs are shit at removing tattoos, so adorn with discretion.
