Since moving into our little home, I have tried to make it as cottage-y and possible! I loved our home in Hutto, and it was much bigger and newer. This house was built in the 1940s and is small. I adored our home in Hutto. I really bonded with the house's spirit, and it was gutting to leave. But I really think that I will bond deeply with this house too. It has a lot of character and it's small but so homey!
I have been in the mood to bake and cook a lot lately, and not just convenience food, which is what I often go to after work if I'm tired or have a lot to to. One of my favorite comfort meals to make is Zuppa Toscana and bread. The soup I made, but the bread in the pic is a take and bake bread. I also made the garlic butter, but of course, didn't make the butter itself from scratch. I think this may be the best batch of Zuppa Toscana I have ever made and I think it was because rather than making cashew cream, which tends to get thick when you cool it and then you have to water it down to heat it up and that dilutes the flavor, I used vegan cream, and didn't have to water it down when I reheated so the flavor remained. This is such a great comfort meal!
I made these hobbit pies for National Hobbit Day, which was September 22nd. That's Bilbo and Frodo's birthdays. We ate these while watching The Fellowship of the Ring. Allen gobbled his up, but I had half of mine left for lunch the next day!
And I baked these low-sugar oatmeal chocolate chip cookies. They are so easy and so goooood.
