- 🥐 Fresh From the Bakery Made an olive oil cake - 🥐 Fresh From the Bakery

Made an olive oil cake for the first time and I’m calling this one a work in progress…but a very delicious work in progress. 😂🤎

Soft, moist, simple, and finished with a very generous layer of powdered sugar, which was easily one of the best parts.

Is this my tried-and-true olive oil cake recipe yet? Not quite. Did we still happily eat it? Absolutely. 😂

Sometimes you make the recipe, take notes, enjoy the cake, and try again another day. 🤎

September 1st, so obviously the cold foam needed pumpkin spice. 😂🎃☕️

Homemade cold brew with white chocolate and vanilla bean paste, topped with a thick pumpkin spice cold foam.

Sweet, creamy, spiced, and just enough pumpkin energy without actually putting pumpkin in the coffee. 🤎 This one was GOOD.

🎃 Pumpkin Spice Cold Brew

Cold Brew

* 8 oz homemade cold brew
* 1 tbsp white chocolate sauce
* Vanilla bean paste
* Ice

Pumpkin Spice Cold Foam — 3-2-1

* 3 tbsp heavy cream
* 2 tbsp whole milk
* 1 tbsp powdered sugar
* Dash of pumpkin pie spice
* Vanilla bean paste

Stir the white chocolate and vanilla into the cold brew, pour over ice, then top with freshly frothed pumpkin spice cold foam. ☕️🤎

Pizza night got a little carried away tonight. 😂🍕🤎

Homemade pizza, garlic bread, salad with homemade Caesar dressing, and olive oil cake for dessert.

Apparently making the pizza from scratch wasn’t enough…I needed to make the bread, dressing, AND dessert too. 😂 No complaints over here though.

🍕 My Homemade Pizza Dough — Makes 2 dough balls

* 450 g bread flour
* 7 g active dry yeast
* 6 g granulated sugar
* 2 tsp kosher salt
* 180 g (¾ cup) warm water
* 180 g (¾ cup) warm whole milk
* 2 tbsp olive oil

Combine the warm water + milk with the sugar and yeast and let sit for 5–10 minutes. Add the flour, salt, and olive oil, then knead until smooth and elastic. Cover and let rise until doubled, about 1–2 hours. Divide into 2 dough balls and you’re ready for pizza night. 🍕🤎

Dinner at home continues to be my favorite restaurant. 😂

🎃 Midnight Cookies & Cream Cold Brew

Meal prep is officially paying off. 😂☕️

Homemade cold brew with dark chocolate sauce, vanilla bean cold foam, and a crushed Halloween Oreo on top because apparently the cold brew needed a costume too. 🎃😂

Chocolatey, creamy, just sweet enough, and still tastes like actual coffee. This one might need to stay on the menu for spooky season. 🖤☕️

Yesterday we meal prepped…today we filter. 😂☕️

After 12 hours of steeping, the cold brew is officially ready for the week. And yes, watching it filter was way more satisfying than it had any business being. 🤎

Now the important part: figuring out how many different coffees I can make with one pitcher. 😂

Just doing a little meal prepping for the week. 😂☕️

And by meal prepping, I mean making a big batch of cold brew so every morning starts with one less decision.

Coffee steeped, fridge stocked, priorities exactly where they should be. 🤎

Now I just need to decide what we’re turning it into all week…because drinking it the same way every day would be far too responsible. 😂

Something about a Pumpkin Spice Latte in an actual “for here” mug just feels a little more chic. 😂☕️🎃

No rushing out the door, no to-go cup…just sitting down and enjoying my coffee like I have nowhere else to be.

And yes, the PSL was just as delicious as it looked. 🤎

No real plans other than eating something good, getting out of the house, and seeing where the day took us. My kind of Saturday. 😂

The Morning Menu is out of office today. 😂☕️

Morning coffee at RH instead, and I’m definitely not mad about the change of scenery. Good coffee, beautiful space, and absolutely no dishes waiting for me when I’m done. 🤎

Sometimes the coffee tastes better when someone else makes it.
