Baked Pumpkin-Cranberry Oatmeal Pudding
I was chatting over email with a friend the other day (seems to be the way so many of my chats go nowadays) about how we’re so busy, we sometimes buy stuff–stuff that we really intend to use, stuff that we actually really need–and then, because our schedules are packed tighter than Madison Avenue on […]
Halloween Whoopie Pies*
*Or, Why We No Longer Celebrate Halloween in the RH Household [Don’t be scared. It’s really tasty!] When the HH and I first lived together, our home in an older, mostly run-down neighborhood wasn’t exactly child-friendly.

Apple Pumpkin Crumble Bars (ACD Friendly)
[photo: Celine Saki] During a conversation about something entirely unrelated yesterday, the HH uttered that well-known truism: “There are only two things you can really count on: death, and taxes.” Well, I have to tell you (and I said this to the HH, too, of course), that hasn’t quite been my experience.
