- The Ultimate Waffle Sundae.May 16, 2013
I have birthdays and desserts on the brain this week. This was bound to happen.
It came to me in a dream. For reals.
When I was living in Los Angeles, years ago, I started this thing where I baked cakes for my friends’ birthdays. And we’re not talking beautiful, elegant, professional frosting job cakes here. We’re ... - Little Toasts with Braised Beef and Chimichurri SauceMay 15, 2013
I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to make chimichurri sauce!! Where have I been?
The last time I had homemade chimichurri sauce, we were at a friend’s house a few years ago and they were grilling meat. And lots of it. They made some chimichurri sauce to accompany the meat but had to whip up some ... - Chocolate Banana Cupcakes!May 14, 2013
My oldest daughter, Phoebe, turns 6 on Friday. SIX. I can’t believe it. Where did the time go? I feel like it was yesterday when I was holding her for the first time. . or feeding her. . or taking her to daycare or tying her hair in a ponytail.
She’s growing up.
Now, I’m lucky if ... - Fresh Asian Noodle Bowl for #WeekdaySupperMay 12, 2013
I love Asian food. Depending on what it is, there’s something so fresh, vibrant and flavorful about it. Spring Rolls, Kim bap, soba noodles or this lovely bowl of brown rice noodles with fresh vegetables. Eating Asian food like this doesn’t leave me feeling full and heavy but comfortable and satisfied. And because I ate ... - Albion Fit Swimsuit Giveaway!!May 10, 2013

Hello!

I’m a wine drinker. Never acquired the taste for beer. I know. I know. But give me a glass of red or white and I am a very happy girl. In my early 20′s, I was a cheap date. One glass (maybe even half a glass) and I was tipsy. Now, I can hold my ... - Strawberry and Orange Bundt CakeMay 8, 2013
If you told me 3 years ago that I would have a food blog and would be head over heels in love with baking and cooking, I would have laughed in your face. Back then, I only knew of one food blog. One. That was it. And the only reason I knew of it was ... - Zoku Quick Pop Maker: Product ReviewMay 7, 2013
I’m not completely sure how this happened but our house is now the designated house to go to for popsicles, otter pops, cookies and candy.
OK, OK, I know why.
And now it already surprisingly feels like summer here in Seattle (beautiful, sunny and like mid 70′s to the low 80′s!). What’s up Seattle? Not that I’m ... - Kimchi Veggie Brown Rice Bowl for #WeekdaySupperMay 6, 2013
It’s Monday y’all. Much to my Husband’s disliking, I’ve been trying to implement Meatless Mondays here at the Choi household. Some Mondays are fine.. others, I can tell he’s wishing there was beef or chicken or some other protein other than TOFU.
I love tofu.
But as you can probably guess, my husband could do without it. ... - Loaded Tofu Tacos for a Cinco de Mayo #SundaySupperMay 5, 2013
Next to Korean food, Mexican food is one of my husband’s favorites. While we were dating, I saw him devour a HUGE burrito from Chipotle in under 6 mins. Their burritos are monstrous, thick and huge. I was shocked. He also has a special technique when eating these burritos in particular. It’s hard to describe ... - French Baguettes for #TwelveLoavesMay 2, 2013
Summer is just around the corner and lately I feel like I have a million things going on. . but I love it.

I can’t believe it’s already May and the school year will be ending next month. I survived my daughter’s first year in school; Kindergarten. You might be laughing right now. . yeah, yeah, it’s only Kindergarten you say but a whole helluva lot happens this first year. For starters, some of them will learn how to ... - Marshmallow Bars and a Product Review: Silpat Entremet Baking PanApril 29, 2013
Sometimes, we all need a little craziness in our lives. . to let loose a little and just indulge. Indulging for me, these days, usually involves baking. Something with a little sugar. . . or maybe a lot. Something with a little chocolate. Or a lot.
Regardless of what I am baking, I now always use ...
