Sunday brunch at Taylor’s Kitchen is warm, nuanced and punctuated with charm. Not unlike the ever-changing basket of homemade pastries from Pastry Chef Jodie Chavious! Think: Guinness black bottom cupcakes, apple and sour cream muffins with streusel, and the life-changing Hummingbird Bunt Cake (plucked from a Depression-era Southern recipe book).
I have always had a sweet tooth and as a new mom, my window of opportunity to sit down and bake something elaborate is no longer a reality. When I found this fun, simple recipe that was a cute riff off of the classic rice krispy bars, I couldn’t wait to give it a shot! [...]
During the past year I’ve experimented with making a couple trifles. My weakness for custard is what originally got me intrigued, and I’ve found that they are always a crowd pleaser! For our “All American” potluck I knew I couldn’t go with the traditional trifle, since, well… it’s not American! But when I came across [...]
Potluck recipes- as promised! My approach to potlucks has changed over the years. Previously, I would use the party goers as my guinea pigs to try new recipes I found interesting.

I’d been hoping to do another book post and giveaway, so when a chance meeting at KCRA-TV put me in touch with Amanda Scott, a USA Today Best-selling author who lives right here in Sacramento, it wasn’t the luck of the Irish, but the luck of the Scottish. Amanda was being interviewed about her latest [...]
The wonderful thing about homemade pizza is that there are basically no rules. As long as you have pizza dough, you have the freedom to put whatever toppings you want on it, make the dough as thick or thin as you want, and bake it however you’d like. I’m a big fan of classic cheese [...]
Take two Sacramento-area sisters, Annette and Angela Del Biaggio, who have a love of frosting and an inclination toward all-natural products and the taste of homemade; throw in dashes of delish, quality and flair – and you have The Frosting Queens. You all know my hankering for sweets, so you can imagine my taste buds’ [...]
