    Wow. I can't believe that I've been taking photos of everything I cook for 4 whole years now. It seems kinda crazy, but it's been such a wonderful experience for me.

    My cooking skills have improved, my photography skills have improved, and I've met tons of great people along the way.

    Thanks to everyone for making this obsession of mine so fulfilling!

    Sliced panini with banana and Nutella inside.

    Dino made this fantastic dessert - one of our favorites!

    But really, how can you go wrong with a sandwich that consists of grilled, melted Nutella with bananas smushed inside?

    He even dusted it with powdered sugar to make it extra pretty...but that didn't stop us from devouring it in about 30 seconds flat!

      four whole years. squirrel bread is not even two yet; i can't imagine! a perfect celebration sweet, and one of my fiancée and my favorites. we usually do crepes, but the panini is a good go-to.

      cheers to four more years,
