This Focaccia was really good, guys. Soft, olive oil-saturated dough with a hint of roasted garlic, topped with Kalamata olives and coarse salt. Mmhmm. You can check out the recipe and my step-by-step instructions over on the Tasty Kitchen Blog HERE. Have a lovely day! Erica

My Favorite Guest Posts, Part 1
I have made dozens of recipes for guest posts on other blogs over the years. It has taught me so much about writing, photography and communicating with other bloggers. It would be sad if they were forgotten over time, so I’ve decided to compile some of my favorites here… Zand Gebak. These little shortbread cookies…
Elsewhere: Raspberry Curd
Boy do I love me some curd: the perfect blend of rich, creamy, sweet and sour. This pretty curd is so easy to make: through all the ingredients into a pot, cook until thickened, and strain. It’s so so good spread on buttery English muffins. Or eaten with a spoon, like Reuben likes to do….

These pumpkin cinnamon roll scones are tender and delicious! Hey everyone! Can you believe that Thanksgiving is just TWO days away? I don’t know about you, but I’m not feeling very prepared. I still need to get into town and buy ingredients. So much for making things ahead of time. Guys, I’m pretty proud of…
Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars with a Salty Pretzel Crust
These are the best chocolate chip cookie bars I’ve ever eaten, if I do say so myself. A soft and melty cookie layer accompanied by a crunchy, salty pretzel crust. Mmhmm. As you guy probably know, I’m not a huge one for sweets. But every once in a while it’s worth it to splurge. These…
Blackberry Cobbler Bars
These Blackberry Cobbler Bars are a deliciously irresistible end of summer dessert. I’m having trouble describing these bars. “Yummy. Really yummy,” is all that comes to mind. The cookie-like crust, soft blackberry center, and hint of orange flavor work together to make an irresistibly delicious dessert. I wish I had a piece right now, still…
Bacon and Brie Grilled Cheese with Jam
This Bacon and Brie Grilled Cheese with Jam is a delicious, grown-up take on your run-of-the-mill grilled cheese sandwich. You GUYS. This sandwich is kinda bonkers. Crispy bacon, melty Brie and sweet jam. What a lovely combo. I shared the details about how to make it over on the Good…
Blueberry Lemon Drizzle Bread
This Blueberry Lemon Drizzle Bread is basically a cross between a cake and a quick bread. “You should never make cake again – when you want to make cake, you should make this instead. It’s way better,” Reuben informed me after gobbling down a slice or two of this bread. “I’ll take TWO pieces,” he requested…
