There was this one time, when I was working in a furniture gallery in Burbank, that I was working all alone because my coworkers had called in “sick” and the store manager had left her position for another job. It was the middle of a season change which meant there was new furniture and we [...]

My grandfather was a tile setter and owned his own tile setting company.  In the 1960’s, he hired a young high school boy to be his helper. My grandfather and his whole family, except for one of his daughters (who thought he was ugly and obnoxious), loved this boy.  The young boy was smitten by [...]

Back in the day, my friend used to host a cookie exchange party every year.  Everyone would bring about 40-50 cookies and the recipe printed out on an index card.  Each person would get to take 2 of each type of cookie as well as the recipe for each cookie.  It was an awesome party [...]

Pumpkin Cream Cheese Bread

I’m going to apologize right now for the bombardment of recipes using cinnamon, ginger, persimmon, pumpkin, butternut squash, and/or other types of winter squash that you are going to be getting the next couple months.  I can’t get enough of these things this time of year.  I hope you won’t mind. Pumpkin bread is probably [...]

Not too long ago, I did a post on entertaining search terms that are used to find Keepin’ It Kind.  These search terms, along with the comments in the spam folder, give me great joy when I read them. Now I’ve got a few more to add to the list. To the people who found [...]

The twins spend every weekend with Chris.  When I first met Chris, we never saw each other on the weekends, because this was his time with his kids.  One Sunday, however, after almost a year of dating, he told me to meet him at Starbucks, and when I got there, he had brought the twins. [...]

www.samlimstudio.com This last Saturday was mine and Chris’s first wedding anniversary.  A year ago, we went to Beverly Hills City Hall and eloped, then walked to a local cupcake shop for our “wedding cake.”  We chose the red velvet as our cake because we’re both quite fond of those brightly-hued beauties.  Since we had so [...]

Blackberry Cuppins

By keepinitkind On June 15, 2012 · 27 Comments · In Bread & Muffins, Breakfast & Brunch, Dessert, Gluten-Free, Recipes

“What’s a Cuppin,” you ask?  Well, it’s what would happen if a muffin and a cupcake got together and had a baby.  A super-rad, totally scrumptious baby. I recently wanted to recreate this recipe, but with blackberries.  Blackberries are one of Chris’s favorites, so I thought it would be a nice way to say “thank [...]

I was actually going to make something completely different this night.  I had gone to the store and seen to it that I had all the ingredients for this recipe I had envisioned.  I set them all out on my counter, put my cute little apron on, tied my hair back and was ready to [...]

Some of my most favorite dishes are born out of just grabbing some ingredients that I have on hand and going to town without a finished product in mind.  Those times when you just work on instinct and purely create.  This is one of those creations. I had an open can of pureed pumpkin in [...]

It’s the last day of Grilled Cheese Sandwich month!  I had to squeeze one in before the month ended! This is a super simple sandwich (if you have the ingredients prepared), with a very basic recipe, but so delicious I couldn’t not share it.  The combination of pesto and goat cheese has always been one [...]

Let me tell you: I’ve made some grilled cheese sammies in my day.  For a long while, I was a fromagier, first for a fancy French bistro in West Hollywood and then I was the head fromagier at a well-known cheese shop in Studio City.  You could say that I knew my cheese.  I made [...]

I am not good with frosting or icing.  There are two reasons for this: I am a perfectionist and I am not skilled enough yet to apply frosting in a perfectly even way. I have a habit of eating too much from the bowl and the spoon and making myself sick. With daffodils in a [...]
