OMGOMGOMGOMGOMG. You guys. It is time.

If you follow me on Instagram, you might have noticed when I shared this photo on Thanksgiving. It’s tiramisu pie and I have been dying to share the recipe with you. Seriously, friends. Tiramisu pie? I mean, come on.

I have made this recipe in the test kitchen a handful of times now – and I made tweaks as necessary to make it taste just right. I gotta tell you, I am really happy with the final result. All taste-testers I threw this pie at (aka my awesome friends and family) will agree: this pie is pretty rad….

Maple-Spiced Banana Bread

What up! I’m writing to you today from Seattle, Washington! I’ve been here since yesterday. I’m here for work, but I had most of the day yesterday to venture out and about. The amount of exploring going forward will be limited, but these next few days are going to be awesome nonetheless.

I’m here for PAX! You might know my full-time gig outside of food blogging is working in video games. I work at Harmonix and we make music games! I came out to Seattle to show off Rock Band 4 at the convention and I’m excited. I work in design, but I get to travel with the publishers every once in a while to help show off the cool things we’re working on. I’m actually a very anxious person and can sometimes get a bit over-heated when around lots and lots of people, but when it comes to working at conventions these when thousands of people are in attendance, I somehow don’t get anxious. I’m so happy about talking to fans of our games that the energy I feel is just pure excitedness and none of the anxious stuff. It’s pretty awesome….

Jalapeño Lime Butter

There are many reasons why I could never label myself as a paleo purist and butter is one of them. Yes, it’s dairy and no, it’s not Cheat Day Friday, but I cook with butter pretty often; I separate it from milk and cheese, which I do try to limit.

Jalapeño lime butter is one of my favorite things. The jalapeño adds a subtle, light heat to the butter; its definitely more on the mild side,  though it’s mighty tasty. You can top it over steak, chicken, fish, any other favorite meat, or some grilled veggies. Yum!

You could also swap out the jalapeño for another pepper to test out different levels of heat!
