In Season Now: Figs! πŸ’œ


It's Fig Season!

Growing up, my only exposure to figs was in Fig Newtons. My grandmother turned me onto fresh figs many years ago just before she died, and I've loved them ever since. They're so sweet and luxurious, and they remind me of her every time I eat them.

Aside from eating them as-is, my favorite way to use them is in my fig honey jam or arugula fig salad.

If you love fresh figs as much as I do, be sure to check out my collection of 27 Best Fig Recipes for inspiring ways to use them.

Hi Reader, I bake (and eat!) more cookies during the Christmas season than I do all year. I've followed my mom's tradition of baking cookies to give to neighbors, family, and friends for years. It simply wouldn't be Christmas if I didn't bake sugar cookies, gingerbread men, biscotti and more. I mean, how could I possibly choose just one recipe? Or five? There truly isn’t anything more special than a homemade gift, and for me (and my mom), baked goods make many hearts very happy during the...

Crock pot mashed potatoes

Hi Reader, As much as I love juicy roasted turkey or sweet and savory glazed ham, holiday side dishes often steal the show. The sides make an ordinary meal extraordinary, and for me, you can't beat fall side dishes.
