We hope your Christmas was magical. If youāre like me you may just be sitting in front of the fire, under the glow of the Christmas tree that has lit up your home and season.
I love driving through the neighborhood seeing everyoneās tree proudly displayed in the windows. Some trees blink, some are filled with colorful lights, some are elegant, some are playful. Every tree has character and brings a special added magical element to Christmas.
Our tree has as many lights as it can hold. I love the light it provides to our whole house. Our tree is decorated with memories from times past that bring us right back to a special moment. We actually have a homemade ornament my husband made in 2nd grade. Made of colored paper and tinsel it is priceless.
My grandparents gave my sisters and I an ornament every year and they always dated it too so this tree is actually a time capsule. I love pulling those ornaments out and hanging them on the tree. Not only do they bring my grandparents back to life for a time but I just love that I see the dates they placed in the ornaments and can easily recognize my grandfathers handwriting. More priceless objects.
Today as I sit and take in the tree and the memories it holds I know all too soon those treasures will be tucked back in a box awaiting for another year to fill our home, mind and tree with memories.
So hereās to you - our special tree, that has blessed us and carried our priceless treasures for another season.
In honor of all of the wonderful trees and I have taken our favorite pizza dough recipe and have made a fun and delicious tree pizza. Make one today!
Norris and I are at it again. This time with Frederick and Mrs. FrogLegs (aka cookies & cream) we whip us an easy and always fun pizza dough.
As you can see from our pizzas that Norris went with a more traditional version where as I went with something more whimsical and creativeā¦ imagine that!
We simply love making pizza dough Not only does it involve science, mixing and kneading (a few of our favorite things) but we always make something creative and delicious.
Stay tuned for our show next week where we take pizza š dough and transform it into a festive, seasonal and scrumptious Christmas š tree!
Hereās the link to the you tube show with the recipe below. As alwaysā¦ hoppy cooking!
Ingredients:
ā¢ 1 Ā½ cups water warm (not hot, warm to the touch), tap water is best here
ā¢ 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
ā¢ 2 Ā½ teaspoon active dry yeast
ā¢ 4 ā 4 Ā¼ cups all purpose flour or replace with Gluten-Free AP Flour
ā¢ 1 teaspoon kosher salt
ā¢ ā cup olive oil extra virgin
Instructions
1. Use a small non-reactive bowl*, add warm water, yeast, and sugar. Whisk and let it sit, about 8-10 minutes A ye**ty froth will grow on top, this is called proofing your yeast ā if it doesnāt double or get frothy, your yeast is dead and the recipe wonāt rise.
1 Ā½ cups water, 1 teaspoon granulated sugar, 2 Ā½ teaspoon active dry yeast
2. In a stand mixer or large bowl, add the yeast mixture, flour, olive oil, and salt. Mix everything for 5 minutes until it combines. The soft, stretchy dough will pull away from the sides of the bowl when itās ready. Split the dough in equal halves. Your dough is ready to go!
4 ā 4 Ā¼ cups all purpose flour, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, ā cup olive oil
3. You can also store the dough with a little olive oil in a bowl in the fridge or freezer, see instructions for storage below. Roll out your dough to the desired thickness. Smother it with your favorite toppings. And pop it in the hot oven!

Turkey š¦ Day is fast approaching and if youāre anything like me youāre excited and also in disbelief.

Speaking of sweet treats our cake pops and cookies take the cake (metaphorically speaking). They are oh so charming and oh so delicious.

We started in 2007 as a small, woman-owned business from an adoring home in Mt. Baker. Kids tightly nestled around an oversized table in a cozy kitchen surrounded by sprinkles, flour and all things delicious. We quickly grew from our neighborhood roots to a brick and mortar location in Kirkland where we were able to expand our business model and began attracting larger groups of kids, teens and even adults! From there a fire was lit with the desire to expand yet again! With the goal of inspiring even more kids, teens and adults to step in the kitchen, don an apron and find their creative outlet through food, University Village was born summer 2018!
With a local and intimate footprint and nationwide aspiration, FrogLegs Culinary Academy offers a hands-on approach to cooking. Our dynamic team brings ingredients to life while inspiring and building confidence in a fun and educational way. Whether celebrating your kiddos fabulous birthday party, tasting the world through one of our many summer camps, sipping rose during our macaron & charcuterie workshop or learning the fine art of paella in one of our many adult classes, or coming together with colleagues for a corporate event, we offer a delectable menu primed for every taste bud.
While at FrogLegs, make sure you take a moment to visit our Treat Mercantile for a festive lineup of party supplies and gifts, as well as scratch baked cookies and safe to eat, not to mention delicious, edible cookie dough in our University Village location.
We welcome you into our home and around our table, pull up a stool and stay a while!
