I’m not going to tell you how many years ago I graduated from college. When I set out to write this post, that was my intention, but then I actually did the math, threw up in my mouth a little bit, and then decided to just lie about it. I graduated 6 years ago. Okay, […]
I can’t promise you that everything you eat tomorrow will be fantastic. Perhaps your cat hoarding Aunt Mathilda made that bread pudding again that’s chock full of Persian Furballs. Maybe your newly married cousin experimented with an Éclair Cake recipe but didn’t know the difference between powdered sugar and regular sugar. Perhaps grandma can’t taste […]
Yes, you read that right. Buffalo Style Turkey. I mean, why not? Buffalo Wings are awesome…we all know that. Turkey is awesome. Turkey is poultry; chicken is poultry. Therefore, Buffalo Style Turkey must be awesome, at least in theory. Science is science. Taste is taste. Buffalo Style Turkey tastes awesome. This idea of […]
I’m really starting to get in to these savory popovers. And, can I just say – what the what?? It’s mid November. Mid-November! Thanksgiving is in less than a week…Mixed is the week after that, then it’s December, then Christmas, and holy nuts, 2013 is breathing on me. But – that means only 6 more […]
Maybe you follow me on Twitter. If you do, thanks. I hope I don’t bore you to tears…I just pretty much say whatever I want, when I want. Sometimes, my filter doesn’t work. Or maybe I don’t actually HAVE a filter. Whatever. Filters are overrated. But my point is this: If you follow me on […]
You know what’s good? Putting cut up candy bars in your cookies. You know what’s better? Adding malt to anything chocolaty. Malt is incredible. I don’t know why it’s not more popular…but I have a theory. I think people today consider it old-fashioned, like, if their parents drank it at soda fountains back in the […]
I love pumpkin season. Pumpkin Cookies. Pumpkin Bread. Pumpkin Cake. Pumpkin French Toast. Pumpkin Cheesecake. Yum. Yum. Yum. Eat. Repeat. So, this is another week, and another week means another popover. I’ve made Pumpkin Popovers before…last year. They were wonderful. But there was something more I could do. I could – dare I say it? […]
You know I am a cake girl. It’s obvious. Besides the fact that I have hundreds of cakes posted around this blog of mine, it pretty much shows on my butt. I like cake. So much, in fact, that on my vacation from cake making, I PAID to decorate cakes in Los Angeles, at Duff’s […]
I can’t believe I just typed that…My First Race. A 5k. I do not run. In fact, if there were really a zombie outbreak, and I had to outrun them, I’d likely die. Sure, I’d hide. And hopefully, zombies are pretty slow. I mean, they’re slow on TV, and they seem to have trouble with […]
I don’t like doing dishes. I hear some people say how relaxing it is, how therapeutic. I’m pretty sure they’re either liars or deeply disturbed individuals. Maybe both. To me, a sink full of dishes is almost reason enough to move. I use to have a housekeeper come once every week, and seriously, I’d save […]
I’ve never met a pasta I didn’t like. You? Tomato sauce. Alfredo. Truffles. Pesto. Cheese. Cream. Top a bowl of pasta with just about anything – I will eat it. Oh yes, I will eat it. But, that doesn’t mean I don’t love a GREAT pasta dish. I had one of the best ever just […]
Have you ever been so accustomed to something, that you stopped thinking about it at all? Like your furniture…you don’t really take note of it until you are spring cleaning, and get a wild hair to move it around. All the sudden, your sofa looks entirely different, and you have no idea why? Raisins are […]
