This is our kind of art project - the kind you can eat! Martha Stewart uses straight food coloring to get those vibrant colors and an interesting technique for applying them. Even with our limited art...

We love the glossy wafer-thin top crust that sometimes appears on brownies almost as much as we love the fudgy layer underneath. We always thought this was phenomenon was random or particular to speci...
We have to say that Halloween isn't our favorite holiday. We find lot of the ghoulish tricks and treats more gross-out than good fun. But there are always creative ways to celebrate the darkness of ...
We're always inspired by Martha Stewart's gardens (and, of course, jealous of her gardening staff and vast expanse of property). But this display of pumpkins and gourds just feels like the perfect i...
Hello, new favorite fall dessert! Peach cornmeal upside-down cake — we love you. We've made this cake no less than three times in the last couple of weeks. Here's why....
Would you expect a Martha Stewart kitchen to look this industrial? We don't think this is a new kitchen (in fact, given the slight graininess of the photos and, OK, the overalls, it might be pretty ol...
We think this is an ingenious idea from Martha Stewart! It will be an especially handy trick for those times when we run out of liners in the middle of a batch of muffins. And it looks elegant, too - ...
If you're a fan of sweet and savory combinations, boy do we have a treat for you. It might sound a little strange at first, but trust us on this one – blue cheese and peanut brittle. Read on to find...
A little twist on the old-fashioned wooden ice cream spoons that we used as kids... This image is from Martha Stewart Living, which offers a template for cutting your own spoon shapes with a paring kn...
Tiered, frilly wedding cakes can be a little daunting for the home baker, but what about cupcakes instead? ...

This photo, and everything about the accompanying recipe, too, makes our mouths water. Eating light doesn't mean avoiding meat entirely; protein is still essential, and chicken thighs are a frugal, ta...
