This dessert is a classic. Deliciousness is guaranteed. The recipe is from Frame-by-Frame Baking, a visual step-by-step cookbook from the British series Love Food. But even without these kinds of illustrative photos, the making of these brownies is incredibly easy.
For me, reading is an essential and beloved activity. It has always been and it always will be. I used to read a lot as a kid, as a teenager often late into the night, as a college student on crowded streetcars and buses, juggling the book in one hand and holding on to the rail with the other. I still do – all of the above. My days don’t feel complete unless they are finished with reading.

Knitting has been one of my favorite hobbies for a long time. I started with easy projects – like scarves – and moved on to knit hats, pullovers, sweaters, vests, a skirt, mittens, a doll, even a blanket. There was a time in my life when I knitted with great intensity, then other interests took over, and knitting got abandoned a little bit.
Kohlrabi is one of my favorite vegetables. Paired with apples, a quick slaw – full of vitamins – can be created from it. It’s refreshing and crunchy, simple and very delicious on its own, or as a side dish.
Wind and rain, late October and early November, and you have a perfect recipe for a thin or thicker, yellow, brown, red, or multicolor, crunchy and shiny, or wet and sticky formation on horizontal surfaces. I call them leafy carpets.
It’s probably safe to say that for many people – especially in America – pancakes belong to the category of favorite breakfast foods. In any season.
It’s a lovely early November in Seattle. After the gray mornings and the drizzle, the sun still shines by midday.

I still use store bought puff pastry – and not homemade – when the recipe calls for it. It’s very convenient and time saving. This is a big enough reason for me not to embark on making it from scratch – not yet.
