Happy December! We’re officially smack dab in the middle of the happiest, coziest, most butter-and-sugar-filled month of the year – and I couldn’t be happier about it. Although I’ll always miss living somewhere that snows during the holidays, the weather in the Bay Area has been semi-cooperating with lots of rain and gloomy days, so I’m feeling fully in the cuddly Christmas spirit!
I have the perfect Valentine’s Day present for you.
Breakfast in bed!! And not just any breakfast in bed. A hot-pink-donut-with-sprinkles kind of breakfast in bed. Which is the best kind, obviously.
Valentine’s Day is on a Sunday this year, which is just begging for a special themed breakfast for you and your favorite human(s). There’s something so special and decadent about breakfast in bed – in my opinion, it’s pretty much the most romantic thing you can do for someone. Waking up to a mug of coffee and a homemade breakfast, and not even having to put on real pants to get it?! Heaven, people.
Another rainy, dreary January Sunday, another bowl o’ winter love food. I just can’t get enough.
I have been having so much fun in the kitchen the past few weeks, guys. January has no holidays, no expectations, no food blogger deadlines to meet. As much as I love this blog and how it forces to me to cook seasonally and food-celebrate every holiday (albeit one week early, always), sometimes it’s nice to just cook whatever the hell I want, without foresight or planning or thinking about it altogether too much at all.

Hey everyone! Hope you’re having a better Wednesday than I am. I’m writing this on a wireless keyboard we miraculously dug up because the “p” key on my keyboard has suddenly stopped working! I figured a post without “p”s would be pretty difficult, so I’m glad I was able to make this work. (I mean, I couldn’t even type in “Pinterest”.) Fingers crossed for me at the Apple Store this weekend! Gah. In much happier and less hair-pulling-out-inducing news, here are this week’s Foodie Favorites!
