The Pescetarian and the Pig

Yin Yang Cookies.Harmony. Balance. Two wildly different things uniting to make something truly wonderful. The yin yang. This week has had a lot of the balancing act going on for me. For example: being a 5:30 am gym goer, but not wrapping a photo shoot until 1:30 am, then trying desperately to stay awake all […]

Vegan Pomegranate Kahlua BrowniesWell, hello there, Beautiful! I see you’ve got a little secret you’re trying to keep from me… Is it that you’re studded with little jewels of pomegranate, or is it that you’re vegan? A vegan brownie that tastes this good? How is that even possible? Perhaps it’s because, among your many secrets, you’re […]

Spooky Halloween Chocolate Cups. Halloween is just around the corner! Oh, MAN that came quickly! I’ve had a lot going on in the wonderful month of October, including my best friend’s wedding back in Seattle. It was such a beautiful wedding put together by the bride herself who is such an incredibly creative young lady! […]

Strawberry Cheesecake Cupcakes with Marzipan Bottoms This fall weather is absolutely wonderful. Not only has it brought down the temperatures at least a good ten degrees, but it’s brought about a brand new crop of strawberries for me! My strawberry plants really seem to love the cooler weather, and they’re prolifically putting out berries to […]

Triple Berry and Vanilla Bean Cream Parfait Summer is here. I know it’s still technically spring, but no one told the weather that. Yesterday was a blistering 90°, and even though I was prancing around in the cutest little sun dress and flip flops and spent a bit of the day with my legs in […]

Nutella S’more Sandwich Cookies Should I be completely embarrassed that I am such a late boarder on the Nutella Express? A friend of mine used to talk constantly about how great Nutella was for breakfast on toast. And of course I’ve seen many a Nutella dessert photo. But it wasn’t until my sister came back […]

“Soft Boiled” Easter Egg Cakes Watch the step-by-step video tutorial here! I have the most egg-cellent, most egg-citing news! A few weeks ago I came up with the most ingenious idea! How cool would it be to put a cake inside of an egg?! HOW COOL WOULD THAT BE?! Seriously…. Literally the coolest thing I’ve […]

So, in an attempt to eat perpetually healthy, sugar free, full-of-greens-and-protein food, I tend to walk into the grocery store with blinders on and head straight to the produce section, keeping my head low to avoid eye contact with the gargantuan display of seasonal items and candies. With Easter coming up, there are all the […]

Spring is coming! I’m so excited! I’m so ready for warmer weather, flowers, refreshing vegetables and fruits from the local farmer’s market. The warmer weather, longer days, and sunshine tend to evoke a longing for lighter foods. Creamy, buttery comfort food and pasta dishes are suddenly less desirable and rich chocolate and hot caramely desserts […]

Happy Valentine’s Day! So, even though I recently revealed that I have never had a Valentine before, I love Valentine’s Day. I love hearts and chocolate and that everything is pink and cheesy. I even went to go see that movie, The Vow, on Sunday, hoping that it would make me bawl my eyes out at […]
