Old-Fashioned Iced Oatmeal Cookies

Posted on by wallflourgirl

Nostalgia never tasted so sweet! These old-fashioned oatmeal iced cookies are filled with warm spices & taste even better than the original that we grew up eating. Recipe very lightly adapted from Sally’s Baking Addiction.

This past weekend, I checked an unexpected item off my bucket list: I got to go to the one, the only…Super Bowl!

With an LA Rams victory on the horizon and high spirits flying all around, celebratory tailgates cookies were (of course!) the order of the day in our household. We decided to whip up a batch of these Old-Fashioned Iced Oatmeal Cookies, … Read more

These Oatmeal Lace Cookies are the heavenly light delight you never knew you were missing–and take only 20 minutes to whip up! Overtones of brown sugar caramel blend perfectly with chewy oats and a crisp crunch.

What’s crispier than a newly-minted $10 bill, tastier than Chris Hemsworth lounging shirtless on the set of Thor: Ragnarok, and even sweeter than coming home to a hot shower & homemade quesadillas (courtesy of the one and only Wallflour Boy)?

Lemon Curd Raspberry Crumb Bars for #SundaySupper

Lemon Curd Raspberry Crumb Bars 2--071815

You’d think that with summer vacation finally here and in full swing, I’d find more time to do summery things like frolic through lush fields of berries or buy fresh produce every week from the farmer’s market down the street from us. Instead, in the 4 weeks that have elapsed since my last academic conference, I have done goodness-knows-what with my time: running all of the annoying errands I never bothered to do during the school year, catching up here on the blog, and trying to earn a few extra bucks here and there when I can.

I never understood … Read more

Pumpkin Banana Breakfast Cookies

Posted on by wallflourgirl

Whether we’re out searching for our ideal partner, building relationships with friends, or already happily settled in a 50-year marriage, it’s no surprise that we spend the better of our lives seeking affirmation from the people around us. On a recent trip to Seattle, we gave ourselves plenty of “nothing” time–time to really back away from our busy day-to-day lives and think about what we’re doing, why we’re doing it, where our lives our headed. Every night at the hotel, Richard would look over and grin when he saw me just sitting on the bed and hugging my pillow, thinking.… Read more

I might have graded a few papers here and there, and done a lesson plan along the way. I dunno, it’s pretty hard … Read more

Apple Pie Overnight Oats 2--010715

Sometimes I like to talk about food. Other times, I like to talk about deep and meaningful topics relevant to a betterment of the human mind (or something like that).

And then there come the days where I wonder where the heck my Hogwarts letter got to and mope around the kitchen, dragging my finger through every bowl of batter sitting half-heartedly on the counter.

Today was one of those days.

This morning I woke up from one of my many recurring Harry Potter dreams. Now for most people, this might sound like a really fun dream to have–flying, playing … Read more

Classic Spiced Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

Posted on by wallflourgirl

I am sorely tempted to write about one of the most wonderful, exciting days of my life, which happened just two days ago–but that will have to wait for my Tuesday post (mostly because it’s going to take a lot more pictures and I’m dead on my feet from this 4-day conference).

Instead, I’m writing a short piece about the perks of meeting cute people in random places under crazy bizarre circumstances. Yes, I’m meeting cute boys and getting their numbers all over the place these days. Cat got yer attention yet?

LWOM: Berry Oat-fait in a Bowl

Posted on by wallflourgirl

In today’s edition of Literary Wit and an Oven Mitt, we’re throwing aside the mitt and going bear paws all the way…and it is a beary, berry long way indeed to All the Way…

Berry Oat-fait in a Bowl 4 (1.5

“What’s a long way?” asked Pooh, who had been poking his nose into a jar of honey to see if there was anything left in it. He recalled that there had been, or at least there had been last Monday, before lunchtime, because his stomach had had that funny feeling in it that meant it was time for a small smackerel, and he had poked his … Read more
