Carrot cake with cream cheese frosting
This carrot cake is the first thing I’ve ever baked without adult supervision, and of the desserts I make, it remains my sister’s favorite. She asks me for the recipe about once a year, and I dutifully write it out each time, so this post is as much for my own convenience as it is for you.

Short Rib Hash
I love leftovers. I love being able to just open the fridge, take out a container, heat it up and eat. I also love re-purposing the contents of my fridge for new dishes once I get bored with the original. You can tell that I may have been watching too much Chopped on the Food…
Red Wine Braised Short Ribs
Long chilly winter evenings lend themselves perfectly to warm, cozy, braised meat dishes. Dishes one would never consider making in the heat of a New York summer. Dishes like braised short ribs.
