10 Failproof Ways to Tell If You’ve Met Me in Real Life

Posted on by wallflourgirl

You’re speeding down the dried fruits and nuts aisle with a shopping basket in one hand, a bag of oversized tortilla chips in the other, and a bawling five-year old hanging off your arm. You just whip round the pumpkin tower display near the front when your heels skid to a halt. You backtrack, slowly. You squint your eyes down the yogurt aisle, paying no attention to the increasingly hysterical wails coming from that wonderful $500,000 investment called Your Kid.

It isn’t. It couldn’t be. Or is it? Is that…Ala?

If you’re a normal sociable human being, which … Read more

Posted on by wallflourgirl

I’ve been saving up four weeks’ worth of blog goodies for you guys (because I erm, sort of missed the last installment, oops)…so you’d better bet you’re going to love what I’ve rounded up for you all today!

APPLE FRITTER PIE. WAIT I KNOW RIGHT. I could seriously eat apple fritters for the rest of my life (or at least for every day of it).  The Domestic Rebel is a GENIUS.

Tiramisu Deep-Dish Pie with Coffee Crunch Crumble 1--111114

Hey, I just met you, and this is crazy…

But here’s my pie–follow me maybe?

Tiramisu Deep-Dish Pie with Coffee Crunch Crumble 5--111114 copy

I love food festivals for many many good reasons, the best of which are 1) food, 2) eating, and 3) more food. In close fourth comes the company: there’s something oddly liberating about connecting with new people through the miracle of face-stuffing, ith delicious globs of cream dribbling down the side of your face as you and the stranger standing next to you rave over the ah-MAY-zing pie you both just tried.

Do you love coffee too? you ask. Cream pies are the best, right?… Read more

Best Blondies 2--110214

It’s clear what kind of a spinster I will be: not an old batty cat lady (I’m allergic to cats), but a decrepit little woman who bakes Coconut Rum Blondies at 4 AM after finishing a terrible Ginnifer Goodwin rom-com alone on my couch.

On the bright side, there are worse things. For example, I could … Read more

1-Minute Coconut Granola for Two (No-Bake)

Posted on by wallflourgirl

Okay, so deal: why am I baking making granola for two when I’m only one?

1-minute Coconut Granola 2--102614

No, I’m not preggers, you sick Sherlocks, I know who you are and this isn’t a British teledrama episode called The Sign of Three.1-minute Coconut Granola 4--102614It’s the start of a new swim season around these parts, where outdoor pools reign supreme and the scent of chlorine wafts off my saturated skin in noxious waves. Our greatest fear is that winter is coming and heaven forbid the temperature drops below a chilly 68 degrees at night.

So naturally, I’m following Manatee Survival Rule #1 and storing … Read more

The Writing Process Blog Tour on #wallflourgirl

Posted on by wallflourgirl

Writing Process Blog Tour 1Okay. So this isn’t a chocolate post. This isn’t a cookie post, and I’m sorry for that. This isn’t even a no-bake vegan salted chocolate chunk oat bars made from heaven post, though my hand is crammed into a bowl of them as I type.

This is a writing post and I am dancing a little jig around my computer because I love lurve love talking about writing. It may be one of my favorite things in the world after eating peanut butter from the jar with a spoon while binge watching Sailor Moon episodes like I’ve been doing for … Read more

Rocky Road Brownies 2--101914

These brownies aren’t the only crazy thing happening around here this week, though they are insanely fudgy and I made boxes of these for friends who loved them and I’m selling them online here so if you want them without so much as stepping a toe into your kitchen, I can make that happen now.

Crazy? I love crazy.

Rocky Road Brownies 4--101914

Just about 45 minutes ago, I got off an epic long late-night phone call (yes, it’s 3 AM and I manually pressed the Publish button on this post) with my friend. I’ve been prone to lots of anxiety and high-stress nights … Read more

Inverted Graham Cracker Cheesecake Bars

Inverted Graham Cracker Cheesecake Bars 1--101414

As students trundle to their first classes of the quarter, laden with heavy backpacks filled with books they will probably never finish, for classes they will soon find no time to attend;

as school swings back into high gear with the sound of familiar chimes ringing from the campus bell tower, tolling its stolen set of pipes recorded from another university tower;

as I lug my brick of a laptop to my office under the unnaturally blazing October sun, I think vaguely to myself that if I chance to encounter a mad Sasquatch on my unlikely path to school, at … Read more
