Some days call for doughnuts with chocolate frosting and sprinkles.
Then, some weeks call for them. That week was this week. Sugary sweet doughnuts laced with milk chocolate that boast a slight crunch from rainbow sprinkles – a childhood favorite + an adult indulgence. Summer is fading into fall, which has meant the end and beginning of things: starting a new semester, finishing freelance projects, planning for Argentina and enjoying the late summer bounty of zucchini, eggplant, onions + tomatoes in the form of French crepes with ratatouille filling.
And reading! I just bought Zadie Smith’s new book “NW” and have been catching up on the Internet. Here’s some good stuff I’ve read lately:
I wrote an article on papalo. It got published. That is awesome.
Mark Bittman wants you to celebrate the farmer, and I couldn’t agree more.
Having a blog existential crisis? Read this piece from Helen Jane. It’s a good reminder not to take your online life so seriously. And more importantly, it made me want to dance.
Dutch Oven No-Knead Herb Bread. I want.
A FREE 7-Ingredients or Less E-Cookbook from the lovely Dana at Minimalist Baker. Let’s be real – who doesn’t love a simple, delicious meal that doesn’t require a cabinet full of spices to make?
Newly obsessed with Adoravel, which has nothing to do with reading but everything to do with chic, inexpensive jewelry. Go now.
Have a deliciously happy Labor Day Weekend all!

Congrats on the article- I read it and it’s great! I want to try that herb, too, I bet I’d like it (since I’m addicted to cilantro and all). Have a great Labor Day weekend, Holly!
Woah! Loving that jewellery! And can’t wait to see you and catch up this weekend! xx

I’m not a doughnut fan. But THAT doughnut- I want to chomp right through the screen!
Just so ya know, I’ve been making your beer-crust pizza every Friday night for the last month. My husband and I each make our own single serve pizzas and use a different beer each time. Any they are always perfect. I have extra dough leftover on purpose, and make pretzels with it!

Ahh, i want that donut! Sprinkles? Necessary, especially when you get an article published- congrats!
