I was never a big fan of scones... until last year. If you're ever in Durango, Colorado, be sure and hit up a local favorite: Bread. Their baked goods, breads, and goodies are amazing. Local coffee shops and even the hospital where I completed by dietetic internship stocked their shelves daily with fresh baked Bread goods. This is where my love of scones was born. I was looking for my fav treats at the hospital's coffee shop one day to … [Read more...]

I love food and cooking and eating. And guess what. The population I … [Read more...]
Grilled Bacon Chocolate Chip Cookies
Yeaaaahhhh, so I grilled cookies. {O.M.G.} Even if you don't have a Big Green Egg, you can do the same thing in your grill. Or almost the same thing in your oven. With The Big Green Egg (or any other smoker) you can add wood chips, AKA add smoke, AKA grill and smoke cookies. Holy moly. AAAAND, I didn't just grill any cookies. No, no. no.

Peanut Butter Chip & Chocolate Chunk Cookies
Ooooh these cookies. They have almost become known as "THE Cookies" over the years. They are by far one of the best cookies I've ever eaten. The name of them is quite long, so maybe the nickname The Cookies works out well. Or PB-3C Cookies? I don't know that might sound a little too much like "PVC pipe" to me. Or maybe I've just been spending too much time doing Crossfit. Over Valentine's/President's Day weekend we had some friends coming to … [Read more...]
