I’m an early bird. I fall asleep at grandma-esque hours (reading in bed at 9:30, passed out by 10) and rise with the sun. Going to the farmer’s market on the weekend is one of my most precious pastimes. I’m an amateur cook (and that’s a bit of an overstatement), but I can’t get enough of the sights and smells of roughage being snapped, raw cantaloupe flesh, the murmurs of conversation and the infinite expanse of dogs and babies. It’s my own religion, really; who needs to go to a stuffy church when I can salivate over the fragrant, beautiful fruits of the earth? I worship at the altar of the tangible.

Olivia Rae is my hero. A lot of folks can talk about making out there desserts that go beyond boxed angel food cake (cough, cough: me), but few actually go through the scorching-the-tops-of-the-marshmallows lengths. These brownies are my new favorite thing that I probably won’t ever have time to make…but I will eat them!

I’ve been glued to my seat all morning, drinking in every single one of Eat Make Read’s happy hour recipes. (If I could get virtually drunk through a laptop I’d be sitting on the bathroom floor eating a sobering loaf of bread as we speak.) Every single drink sounds mouthwatering (and looks it as well — the photographs are so tempting) and the directions are totally easy. This recipe for jalapeño infused tequila (for margaritas, natch) is the perfect spring recipe…if the snow ever stops in Brooklyn, that is. Get out your mason jars and meet me in the kitchen at Eat Make Read.
