Daring Baker’s Challenge: Caramel Cake with caramelized butter frosting.
This month’s DB challenge has a special place in my heart. I adore caramel. And it is indeed pronounced car-a-mel. Not ‘carmel.’ People please, note the ‘a’ in there. Its just plain based on the rules of the English language. Car-a-mel. If you say ‘carmel’ just go away. No I’m kidding- don’t go away. I’m […]

“Turkey for you, turkey for me.”
Happy Thanksgiving (aka rape, plunder and pillage Indians day) to all you fellow Americans out there! Yeah, its a day thats been twisted to glorify the Pilgrims who amounted to nothing more than intolerant, murderous religious fanatics, but I have to say, I do love me the Macy*s Thanksgiving day parade. And who doesn’t love […]

Cranberry-Orange scones.
I really couldn’t think of a clever title for this, so I figured I’d just be straight about it. I am not a cranberry fan, but I had a million beautiful oranges sitting in a bowl looking bored, and I’m celebrating two Thanksgivings this year.. meaning I was in need of many baked goods. So […]

Get stuffed.
The title of this post has a double meaning. One, the potatoes I made tonight, and two, the subject I will discuss later on at the end of this post. But first, lets talk potatoes. I love potatoes. Baked potatoes, twice baked potatoes, french fries, mashed potatoes, roasted potatoes, etc. You name it- I love […]

Broccoli is like, so cheesy.
Jay loves broccoli. So much it frightens me. He orders a side of broccoli EVERYWHERE we go. Broccoli in any form, cooked any way, with garlic, with marinara, with cheese, etc. Broccoli with a side of air. Literally, any kind. I can take it or leave it, personally. I won’t specifically order it, and I […]

Cinna-what? Cinna-who?
I’m on a mission I guess you could say. A mission to recreate mall snacks. Well, not really, but I found this recipe and one for a certain type of soft pretzels, and while I was figuring out which to make first it dawned on me that they were both frequently sold in malls. I’m […]
Its time, everyone. Time for what, you say? Its time for another round of …Cupcake Rehab International! For those of you unfamiliar with that phenomenon, I’ll sum it up quickly. It all started back in April of 2008. I was so amazed at the variety of countries that were visible in my sitemeter web tracker, […]
I recieved a big box of amazing goodies from Sourpuss Clothing yesterday, but I couldn’t post about them because I went to a show in Brooklyn for a friend of Jay’s band, Gilgongo. Which was a load of fun, by the way, thanks for asking! But now its Friday night and things are slowed down […]

Maple-iced fall leaf sugar cookies.
Well fall is definitely here. It feels more like spring, truth be told, but its okay. I’m looking forward to the Macy*s Thanksgiving Day parade, wearing sweaters (which I haven’t done much of yet) and even more so, Starbucks Peppermint Hot Chocolate, which is my winter/Christmas shopping staple. The cold weather- not so much. But […]
