Hey friends, its been a while. Between the pandemic, grad school (translated all of Beowulf last semester), having THREE kids to raise and educate, and Instagram rudely shutting down my main account, I have been absent without leave.

Blueberry Chamomile Galette
Allow me to introduce you to one of the ultimate summer desserts. Reader, Blueberry Chamomile Galette. Galette, Reader. Isn’t she beautiful? But don’t just analyze my subpar pictures.

I baked up some canned biscuits (they're great, don't @ me), just to make the meal feel new. Then I microwaved some leftover pulled … Continue reading Leftovers!
