Lavender Arnold Palmer Cocktail
Hope you’re feeling rested and recharged after a short work week. It’s cloudy and rainy in Chicago today, but I’m not mad about it. I’m always a little more productive on gloomy days, I don’t know why. Speaking of productive…I found another use for my *famous* Lavender Simple Syrup. And it’s a winner. This Lavender…
Peach Thyme Bourbon Smash
I bought a bunch of peaches to make a grilled peach chicken salad that looked delicious. Really, it does. But then dinnertime rolled around and the idea of 1. cooking and 2. eating a salad seemed like a horrible decision. All I wanted to do was sit in the sun and finish my book club…
Homemade Strawberry Basil Poptarts
Are these poptarts or hand pies? …or mini pies? Honestly, I’m not entirely sure. Is there an official definition of a poptart somewhere? For now I’ll stick with calling them poptarts. But just know that whatever you decide to call them…they are delicious. These “poptarts” are made with my favorite all-butter pie crust and filled…
Lavender French 75 Cocktail
Happy Friday, friends. I hope you had a lovely week and are looking forward to a relaxing weekend…maybe with this cocktail (or two). A French 75 combines some of my favorite things: gin and champagne. I am very in to gin and tonics lately, and there is something so lovely about popping a bottle of…
Strawberry Tequila Soda
This cocktail is exactly my mood right now…bright, bubbly and screaming *summer*! It’s July, it’s Friday, it’s a long weekend and I’ve got a fresh Strawberry Tequila Soda in my hands…I have literally zero complaints. To make a great day even better, I’m about to take one of these outside with a book and bask…
Watermelon Ginger Aperol Spritz
I had my very first Aperol Spritz in Italy three years ago and my life has forever been changed. Not to be dramatic or anything. We saw this bright orange drink as the happy hour special all over Florence and were very intrigued. We learned that it’s a common apertif in Italy…and is absolutely delicious.
White Claw Slushies
Have you seen this trend popping up too? I think we’re all so bored with ourselves and have nothing else to do but try out random concoctions. See: pancake cereal and whipped iced coffee. But truthfully, what could be bad about a White Claw slushie? Let me tell you…absolutely nothing. It’s glorious. Refreshing, ice cold,…
Browned Butter Maple Banana Bread
Let’s be honest. You have probably made at least two loaves of banana bread since March. For whatever reason we think we’re going to consume massive amounts of bananas in a week and then end up with seven overripe bananas by Wednesday. To make matters worse, if you’re like me you definitely don’t learn your…
Pink Lemon Collins Cocktail
My husband and I have been trying out meal delivery kits for a few months now. With being home all day and having to cook so many meals, it’s been nice to have someone else tell us what to make. I honestly was super skeptical about it but have surprisingly enjoyed trying new recipes that…

Prepare yourself for a whole bunch of new lavender recipes here. I finally got my hands on dried culinary grade lavender and have been testing out lots of ideas. Today I bring you a frozen blueberry treat that has a hint of lavender and a whole lot of deliciousness. These mini pies use my favorite,…
