TODAY IS OUR WEDDING DAY! That can only mean one thing— lots of cake! Well maybe it means more than just that, but there will be lots of cake at today's festivities :) Given the copious amounts of cake consumption that will be occurring and as a way to celebrate what a special day it is, today seemed like a good time to discuss the cake batter...

When we buy really good bread, we make lots of French toast. I've said it once, and I'll say it again, good French toast starts with good bread. This time we got a little crazy and went with stuffed French toast, which I think is just a fancier way of saying grilled breakfast sandwich. This breakfast sandwich is insanely rich and decadent. We...

My mind has been on the tropics lately. As our trip to Jamaica approaches, I have been thinking about the amazing trip Dustin and I took to Hawaii together in summer 2009 when he was working as in intern out there. With our housing paid for by Dustin's company and a free flight using frequent flyer miles for me, we were able to visit this...

As I've previously mentioned, I think cheesecake makes for a very delicious breakfast! I really like that this oatmeal allows me to do so with slightly less guilt than the previous time I ate cheesecake. This is my favorite oatmeal I've made so far. I remember reading about a blueberry cheesecake oatmeal recipe in the Rocco DiSpirito Now Eat...

I swear there is nothing better than freshly baked cinnamon rolls hot out of the oven. The only negatives are the calories and the time it take to make the cinnamon rolls. I will get to making them soon, but until then I'll stick with healthy cinnamon roll oatmeal. I like to think of it as a cinnamon roll in a bowl. I cooked a generous...

After seeing these baked Samoa donuts from Top With Cinnamon on foodgawker a few weeks back, I became really excited to try something similar. I missed Girl Scout cookie season this year. Despite my best intentions to buy them, cookie season passed without us consuming even a single cookie. Historically I've always been a Thin Mint girl, but...

No fruit pairs better with chocolate than a raspberry. That's why I impulsively bought a bag of dark chocolate raspberry M\&Ms at Target during my visit to Houston. While snacking on the bag on the plane, I had the brilliant idea to make raspberry M\&M pancakes, like chocolate chip pancakes but instead of chocolate chips, I would use raspberry...

Dustin and I had a fantastic brunch one Saturday morning last summer soon after we moved out here at Lot No. 3. I've been wanting to go back to get the delicious lemon ricotta pancakes I ate that morning, but alas we got busy trying different restaurants and their seasonal menu changed, dropping the lemon ricotta pancakes for pumpkin...

The coconut pancakes, perfectly light and fluffy, from the Hobbit Cafe in Houston that we discovered shortly before moving are the Houston brunch food I miss the most. I used to despise coconut, but we ate this amazing coconut cream pie the night we got engaged and ever since then, for some reason I really enjoy the flavor of coconut. Who knew...

Easiest French toast we've made so far. Eggnog is so rich, creamy, and flavorful on it's own you don't have to have many ingredients to make a seemingly fancy and definitely seasonal breakfast. All you have to do to serve two people is mix one egg, 3/4 cup of eggnog, and some spices in a bowl then dip slices of six slices of French bread that...
