I think a love of popcorn is a genetic thing. I mean…I haven’t seen any real research done on the topic, but from my own observations it appears to be true. My mom used to chastise my grandmother for eating popcorn for dinner, but I have it on good authority on nights when my dad […]
Guys, I made mint chocolate chip ice cream this weekend. It didn’t quite turn out… The mint flavor was great! And I have a thing about mint chocolate chip ice cream needing to be green (I don’t like white mint chocolate chip ice cream- I don’t care what you say, it does not taste the […]

Happy Cupcake Week on Long Distance Baking! You read that right, it’s cupcake week here at LDB and we couldn’t be more excited! We have 3 yummy cupcake variations this week, starting with Classic Vanilla. The idea for cupcake week came about when I was asked to bake cupcakes for my cousin’s first birthday. I […]
Tis the season for zucchini! I’ve already started seeing coworkers leaving their extras in the break room at work. I’m slightly ashamed to say though, I have no homegrown zucchini this year I got the “grey bugs of death” on my plants and there was no saving them. Normally by this time of year we have dozens […]
Caramel. Apple. Spice. Blondies. Do these scream fall or what?! I was questioning saving this recipe for later. Figured even though I’m obsessed with everything fall already, maybe other people are still enjoying the last rays of summer. Maybe they’re not ready for fall yet. But then I realized school’s are starting up again (if not already), college […]

If you remember, Kelly and I originally started doing Monthly Musings here on LDB. Once a month we would post our current ramblings or fill you in on life. However as we’ve gotten more in the swing of things with creating and posting recipes regularly, the Monthly Musings have fallen by the wayside. We’ve decided they […]
If Kelly has a Nutella addiction, I have a peanut butter addiction: on my toast at breakfast, with an apple at lunch, by the spoonful for a snack, on my ice cream at night…it’s a daily necessity. I recently found this honey peanut butter from a local peanut shop. AMAZING. Seriously. I tried eating normal […]
Thanksgiving is in 2 weeks! That means 2 weeks of healthy, good eating so you can enjoy all the yumminess of Thanksgiving, especially these Mini Apple Crisps! Last week we posted a vanilla ice cream recipe, especially for this apple crisp because nothing goes with an apple crisp quite like a scoop of vanilla ice […]
First, thanks Aunt Paula and Mimi for this old-fashioned cake plate! Isn’t it so cute?! Antique shopping runs in the family and this was definitely a great find. Second, happy birthday Naiomi. My cousin Naiomi’s birthday was on Friday and we celebrated last night with this chocolate cake. And it did not disappoint! When I […]
Some say I’m a picky eater (don’t listen to them…I’m infinitely better than I was as a child). However one thing I’m still picky about: Bananas. They have one little bruise? Done. Start turning slightly brown? Nope. I just can’t do it! I also can’t bear to throw them away, so I end up with […]
The Giants are in the World Series!! The 3rd time in 5 years!! And I went to Game 4! We sure are spoiled as Giants fans So in honor of game 6 tonight (watching the game as I write this and trying to keep the tears from spilling on my keyboard…), I decided to make […]
Guyyyssss. I’m confused on my seasons. Yes, I L.O.V.E. Fall. Clearly, it’s been all pumpkin everything over here lately. Yet now, I’m bringing you pesto. I don’t know about where you guys live, but we’ve been having a gorgeous fall here in Boise! I just roasted my peppers, I made more crockpot tomato sauce with the last […]
