Dr. Matt Foy first found his way to baking in medical school. Now, pies are his passion as he spends his time outside of the hospital in the kitchen.

Back in action with a little What’s Cooking Wednesday?! My latest piece for InRegister—comfort food is always in season! Happy Cooking!

Writer April Hamilton asked friends and family about those dishes that bring them comfort. This story gives just a few of those recipes.

Feels great to shout Happy Cooking! Those words were silenced for seven and a half months and they are back for good! Giving so much thanks on this day and every day.

May is a month of many milestones for our family. Our first two daughters were born in May, the first one arriving precisely on Mother’s Day! How did I get so lucky?! Our third daughter was due in May. Smart girl waited to make her debut on the first of June so she gets a special month to herself!...

I wrote a love letter to a dear friend and our favorite camp!

When my youngest daughter was 10, she unloaded her backpack on a Friday after school as her fourth grade year was winding down. She handed over a flyer and ordered me to read it. “MOM!! Can I go?! It looks so fun! Mrs. Pancake told me about this and said all her kids go! Carli Sears goes! Can I GO...

I’m doing a little happy dance over here! Dream assignment for the cover of InRegister. Such a fun combination of my favorite things: meeting new people, tasting their lovingly crafted breads and pastries, and writing about them ❣️

The culinary talents behind five local cottage bakeries have turned simple combinations of ingredients into a recipe for success.

Meet my new friend Katie McKenna! She is at the center of our much-celebrated silver linings following my daughter’s accident 19 months ago. Since I missed some Wednesday postings (four to be exact, each with an explanation), I’ll be adding a Sunday edition in December so I get to all 52. Katie’s recipe is a 20 minute two pot wonder. Hope you’ll join us in the kitchen. Happy Cooking!

Katie McKenna makes me laugh. Sometimes I make her cry. We met literally by accident, our paths crossing in the post-trauma arena. Her book, How to Get Run Over By A Truck, which she reads on Audible, is a MUST. Somehow, the softcover edition landed in my daughter’s ICU room in Manhattan last May.
