Exploring the Places No One is Talking About
Earlier this year Keltin and I made camp donuts at home on the stove. They turned out great and it was a ton of fun so on this last camping trip we decided to try making them over the fire. This batch we coated in cinnamon-sugar but you can also use powdered sugar. We paired
I discovered something new to experiment with in the kitchen thanks to Hill Country Lavender out of Wimberley, TX and their Buzzed Butterfly cocktail: Butterfly Pea Flower Tea. This tea is made of blue flowers that are typically collected in Asian countries. The tea has an earthy flavor and is not my favorite. The best
Most of the compound butter that I made is savory, mean to bring dinner to another level. Well this week I decided that breakfast needed to be upgraded with orange-honey butter. I even went another step and made my own butter. I wanted this butter because I’d made scones and had extra heavy cream that
This stop on the road trip wasn’t actually in Kansas but in Oklahoma. We stopped at Pops in Arcadia, Oklahoma off of Route 66. If you can imagine a soda flavor, they have it. Keltin and I aren’t big soda drinkers but we couldn’t resist creating our own six pack of interesting flavors. At night

Keltin actually found a the original version of the recipe but I didn’t have everything that recipe called for so I made my own variation. It is a winner and fantastic on grilled summer vegetables. An easy recipe that can be prepped before hand as a way to add flavor to any dish! Ingredients: 1/2
If you want to know what sparked this most recent trip to Kansas it was the lure of the cinnamon rolls served at Carriage Crossing in Yoder, Kansas. As much of a myth a face sized cinnamon rolls may seem, these aren’t. What they are is delicious. I didn’t even order my own, I snagged
I got the idea for this recipe from Ice Cream Magazine and it looked perfect for summer. Bright and refreshing with a hit of tartness from the limes and an elevated flavor with the lavender. Ingredients: 2 C. Fresh or Frozen Blueberries Zest and Juice from 1 Lime 1/2 C. Lavender Sugar (can be added
