3 words: Nectarine. Liqueur. Applesauce.

Inspired by my favorite applesauce at the farmer's market, the Peppermint Farms Chunky Peach Schnapps Applesauce, we're making a twist on a classic applesauce. Featuring Nectarine Liqueur, you get a delightfully fruity, complex, and lush applesauce that will delight kids and kids-at-heart alike. Don't worry, between the low ABV and the cooking process, you're not getting buzzed on this applesauce- even if you eat the whole batch, which you'll be tempted to do! πŸ˜‰ Free recipe is now available on the Patreon.

We're back to our regularly scheduled programming for recipes! Today's feature: Blueberry Filling! You can use it for pies, tarts, cakes, cookies, and more! I recently made it to play with a gluten-free thumbprint cookie recipe. I'm still working on that, gluten free is its own beast. πŸ₯΄ Find the recipe at the kitchen table!

Sorry I've been a little quiet this week, I took a weekend adventure! Here's some highlights. Did some exploring, met some incredible people, got some art inspiration, did some reflecting, and of course you can't forget the market goodies!

-Salted Caramel from
-Nectarine Liquer from
-Sonoma and Acadia Candles from
-Tearoom Candle from
-Paring Knife (and leather case!) from
-Pickle on a Stick (not pictured, I demolished it and it refreshed my tired bones) from

I wish I could have gotten something from every vendor, I love when people share their passions and hard work. πŸ₯ΊπŸ’š

Today's make-it-don't-buy-it is taco seasoning! Convenience items are easy to reach for during a busy month (like we've been having) so I like to keep a big jar of this on hand to make meal time quicker. Get the recipe at the kitchen table! Or, if you're feeling snazzy you can comment 🌢, and I'll send you the recipe.


(That feels real weird to say... No wonder people have robots do it for them... but it's all me baybeeee!)
