👉🏼📚🌲 finishing touches 🏡✨🖐🏼
🇭🇺🍪 got kinda tired of making samey golden brown crusty things so i made a few italian bakery classics to bring to folks today. this is only half of the cookies i made, turns out most recipes for rainbow cookies make 4 million of them ugh. need to check that next time before i get started haha. feeling real good about how these came out though, i think they look pretty legit (and they taste good too!) i made homemade raspberry jam for the “glue” between the different colors and the start-to-finish of making rainbow cookies was a larger undertaking than i expected but i think/hope people will really like them and i’m glad i made something a little more fun and colorful. ok gotta go deliver some cookies. hey happy easter! hope you are having a wonderful sunday ❤️💛💚

🌲the next installment of @cabinporn , inside, comes out october 1st. @noahkalina shot the cover at beaver brook in sullivan county, NY, and @mattcassity designed a beautiful book that we all hope you love as much as we did working on it. thanks to @zachklein for the opportunity to lend a hand in this new chapter of an awesome project. 🏕
salted caramel apple & nectarine blueberry pies. pies are weird because there’s a lot of decisions you have to make based on instinct. how much water you add to the dough, how wet the fruit are and how much thickening they need, whether the crust is brown enough to change the oven temp halfway through. i’m not good at those types of things and avoided making pies for a long time because i preferred the structure of more “measurement-based” recipes. S & L got me the @birdsblack cookbook last year and i’ve been trying to get better at not only making pies but trusting myself and not overthinking things. learning how to make pies has been an education in making and sticking with decisions, proceeding with confidence to the next step, and not getting stuck in worry. very grateful for these lessons, and also really excited to bring these to folks this evening and tomorrow. hope you had an awesome weekend. ❤️🥧🙂
🍪 made my favorite cake and other people’s favorite cookies this morning 🌞🍰

so i made a cake on wednesday night to bring to my friends on thursday, but it stuck to the pan and kinda burnt and was ruined (my oven sucks and runs hot sometimes). it happens. i’ve been home working all weekend and figured i would try this recipe again (one bowl upside down cake by @csaffitz ) to bring to them tomorrow. since it was the second time i was making it, i thought i would make the right adjustments and it would definitely come out. just to make it a little more challenging for myself i thought it would be fun, since it’s an “upside down” cake, to invert the traditional cherries and pineapple and make a smiley face out of the pineapple. doesn’t that sound fun? I THOUGHT SO TOO! so, since when i flip an upside down cake i flip it away from my body, i thought i would have to flip the individual parts of the smiley face to make them appear right side up. SOMEHOW THIS MADE PERFECT SENSE TO ME AT THE TIME. it smelled great while it was baking and the whole time i’m thinking “wow my friends and their kids are gonna think this is awesome” and i was all pumped about it. so i take it out of the oven and let it cool for a few minutes. i run the knife around and release it. i’m lifting the pan and it’s coming out so easy so i’m thinking that i’m golden. and then i see this FUCKING SAD FACE. because OF COURSE YOURE NOT SUPPOSED TO FLIP THE EYEBROWS OR SMILE OF THE SMILEY FACE. arrrghhhhhh
