Dark Chocolate Strawberry Truffles I’m not usually one to celebrate Valentine’s Day as I believe everyday is a day to appreciate a loved one, whether they be a partner, a family member or a friend. But, I do love to experiment with new dessert recipes as dinners are at least a once-a-week affair at our […]
Rose Petal & Pistachio Granola {Vegan & RSF} Some time has passed since I’ve been able to post any new recipes as I spent the better part of last year shooting various film and video projects in Paris, NY and California. I find it’s always a question of trying to find the right balance. Having […]
FRESH BLACKBERRY TART + WALNUT CRUST I’ve been in California for a month and my time here has been epic up until now. The weather has been lovely, I’ve been thoroughly enjoying my Watercolor and Herb Craft and Medicine Making Classes, and just got back from a Solo Creative Retreat in Sebastopol where I stayed […]
CHOCOLATE CHERRY OATMEAL COOKIES {V + RSF} How many times have I made oatmeal cookies in my lifetime? Many! I grew up making these cookies because they were a family favorite, and because my dad preferred oatmeal raisin to chocolate chip. I remember having to wait for the butter to soften, and then watch my […]
Lime-Infused Bounty Bars Growing up, I have always been a big chocolate and coconut fan – the combination of creamy and slightly textured coconut, covered with rich dark chocolate, melts in your mouth. But as I’ve taken sugar out of my diet, I no longer have the desire to eat a candy bar. I do, […]
RAW DATE SYRUP A few years ago, I made a decision to stop eating refined sugar, and this coming from a girl who loves her sweets. And with all of the baking that I do, I wasn’t sure how I was going to substitute the sweet component of my recipes, but in fact, there are […]
Spiced Rosemary Sea Salt Brownies {Vegan} Last week, in part to celebrate my birthday, Marc suggested a last-minute trip to the country – L’Allier, to be more precise. Growing up, Marc spent much of his summers visiting his grandmother who lived in L’Allier, which is about 3 1/2 hours south of Paris. He arrived home […]
Banana Bread {Vegan} My mom was in town last week from California. It had been 49 years since her last trip to Paris and it was great to show her the neighborhood and all of our favorite places in the City of Lights. Although we made our rounds and ate at some of our favorite […]
Raw “Bulk” Snack Bars {V, GF, RSF} This weekend was glorious. The weather was amazing and we spent Saturday walking around the city and Sunday in the forest of Fontainebleau with Marc’s brother, Pierre, and our two nieces, Lison and Sasha. I continually found myself looking up to the trees…there was even a bit of […]
Raspberry Lemon Thumbprint Cookies {Vegan} A rainy Sunday in Paris = a trip to the bookstore, a visit to the rue de Bretagne brocante (one of my favorites of the year) and a stop off at Le Marché des Enfants Rouge for some fresh thyme and beautiful lemons. With Marc at work and the house […]
