Evie & Rocky
April 3rd, 2012
This is Evie. She has traveled all the way from Greece to Chicago, where she currently lives with my friend Katerina, her owner. Katerina is from Greece, too. While living in Marousi, she worked in Kifisia, where she found Evie tied up on the street. She had been left her there for hours, and she was still there by the time Katerina got off of work. So she took her home with her and Evie has been a happy dog ever since!

blueberry almond cookies

I often watch TV while I’m on the treadmill. Either that, or I listen to a podcast. Let me be honest here- I do not like doing the treadmill. I would much rather be out walking through the city. And I do when it’s nice out. However, right now it’s too cold (in my opinion) to go out jogging everyday. That’s why I love fall and spring. Because in the summer it can also be way too hot. So for those times that it’s not comfortable enough to exercise outside, I reluctantly get on the dreaded treadmill. Read more »

chocolate & zucchini cake
January 18th, 2012
I finally made this Chocolate and Zucchini cake from… well, the blog Chocolate & Zucchini! The recipe was fun and surprisingly simple, and the result was both stunning and delicious. I’m pretty sure this is the first thing I’ve baked this year.

happy (belated) thanksgiving!
November 27th, 2011
Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to bake anything on Thanksgiving Day. However, a week before I was able to try this Sweet Potato Buttermilk Pie recipe from smitten kitchen. Sweet potatoes are in my top 5 favorite foods and lately I’ve been eating a baked sweet potato every single day! (is that crazy? I hope not.) So since I always have at least two sitting around, I wanted to do something more creative with them. The only thing I did differently was bake the potatoes beforehand rather than boil them. I baked them at 400° F wrapped in aluminum foil for 1 – 2 hours. This was easier for me because it’s how I prepare them when I eat them (daily! seriously, is that crazy?).

chocolate pumpkin muffins
October 20th, 2011
Halloween! Not-too-hot not-too-cold weather! Sweaters! Pumpkins! Haunted Houses! This is my favorite month of all time and I’m always determined to slow down and enjoy the transition into fall. Unfortunately, even my weekends have been stupid-busy. I mean, I do like being busy. But for a few days there I was worried I was having a nervous breakdown. I’m not kidding. I even Googled “nervous breakdown”. I was able to get back on track after trudging through a few days of exhaustion and lack of motivation, though. There was even time to do some baking! Read more »
