Hello from my favorite place—Northern Michigan! I’m a little late with this week’s favorites because the Wi‑Fi has been spotty, but I’m here now and there was so much good stuff online this past week that I had to share.
Can you believe how quickly August is flying by? What are you up to as we race past the middle of the month?
I’ve been sharing lots from our trip on Instagram and Snapchat (howsweeteats) — I’d love for you to follow along. I also posted a few short videos recently: my favorite pitaya bowl, a summer chickpea salad, and blueberry breakfast cookies. They’re all delicious and worth a peek.
Stay tuned over on Crumbs for more vacation posts this week — there might even be a video!
P.S. I was so surprised and excited to see that HowsWeeTeats was nominated for Best Food Blog. If you’d like to vote, I’d really appreciate it. xoxo
The goodies I’m crushing on this week:
- Thai noodle salad with glazed salmon — seriously yes, please.
- Peanut butter bundt cake — OH MY GOSH, need this.
- Fresh tomato summer pie — dying to try it.
- Chicken Caesar salad — I’m always craving a killer version of this classic.
- Lemon zucchini bread — calling my name.
- Fig and lime shaved ice with coconut — totally obsessed.
- Cajun stuffed tomatoes over creamy grits — is this real life? Amazing.
- Banoffee tartlets — ridiculously easy and impressive.
- Blackberry buttermilk ice cream sandwiches — dreamy.
- A DIY flair chair — yes please, I want one.
- Mango chipotle fish tacos — look too good to be true.
- One‑pot summer pasta — so much love for this simple, flavorful dish.

- Buttermilk brownies — because there’s never a bad time for them.
That’s what I’ve been loving this week. Enjoy exploring these recipes and projects, and I’ll share more from the trip soon.
