True to my word, I’m not leaving you hanging on the roundup from last week’s Buttermilk Week. I’ve been craving citrus lately, so this Lemon Buttermilk Tart looks absolutely divine!
1. Buttermilk Fried Chicken 2. Salt-Kissed Buttermilk CakeThis has to be one of the very first rooms I ever bookmarked back in the day. (And by “back in the day” I mean before I ever started blogging.) I’m not sure where it came from or who is responsible for the decorating, but my-oh-my it’s lovely. White, light gray and yellow is always such an eye-catching combination but the true star of this room is the natural lighting. Goes to show how it can make such a huge difference in a room’s ambiance. The tufted yellow booths and armchairs provide that extra little something that keeps me staring and wishing I owned such a place.
Posted In house and homeA super simple Chilled Buttermilk Soup for those summer days that are just so hot you can’t even bear to look at the stove, let alone turn it on.
Posted In recipesSometimes less is more (blah, blah, blah). Like this yummy Lemonhead Cocktail with only – count ’em – two ingredients.
Lemonhead Cocktail
3/4 ounce limoncello, chilled
5 ounces cava brut, chilled
Pour limoncello into a champagne flute, top with cava, and serve.
Posted In cocktailsI love scones. They’re probably my favorite breakfasty treat. These Buttermilk Scones look simple and divine.
Posted In recipesButtermilk pie is a bit of a southern institution that I’d never heard of until a few months ago. Now I’m chomping at the bit to try out this recipe for Buttermilk Pie with Warm Blackberry Sauce! And after reading the back story to this version in particular I want to try it even more…
Posted In recipesI love corn bread, though I have yet to make it myself. And I actually can’t stand buttermilk to drink, but love cooking with it. So I’m thinking Buttermilk Corn Bread is a recipe I need to add to my arsenal! It’s supposedly a lighter version of the original, perfect for more delicate soups.

1. Plum Pie 2. Chocolate Dimply Plum CakeI’m obsessed with this tutorial for poppy boutonnieres! They’d be lovely for a wedding or party, but I think I’m going to make a bunch and either A.) stick them in a vase or B.) string them along as a garland for my mantel. Yay!
