And the cupcakes are back- this time in lime coconut!
I was going to name this post “Put-the-lime-in-the-coconut cupcakes” but decided that was most likely way overdone. Somewhere on the web, there are probably like 213,493 posts for cupcakes like these with titles like that. So I didn’t use it. But yes- I thought about it. If you look closely, you can see they glow […]
Gorgeous patriotic cupcake by One Ordinary Day …. Another week, another Military Monday post. Military Monday is an effort to honor and remember those who have lost their lives in the war in Iraq (and Afghanistan) and their families, and to also remember those who are still fighting. I ask everyone to do their own […]
Olive Oyl (oil) cake.
This is a pretty cool recipe, because it’s something you wouldn’t ordinarily think of putting together: olive oil and cake. Of course, because I have a kind of fetish for associating recipes with pop culture, I immediately thought of Olive Oyl, Popeye‘s girlfriend.

This year, not only am I attending (with Jay & of course, Indy, who’s very excited to meet new friends!) but […]
Because everyone loves cupcakes & the undead, right?
My favorite holiday (Halloween, in case you’re a dumbass who doesn’t read this blog often enough and didn’t know) is coming up rapidly, and I know this because Halloween candy is in some stores already, and I’ve seen some autumnal decorations pop up in other stores. This excites me and saddens me at the same […]

The perfect pizza.
I decided the other day for Meatless Monday that I’d try out a new pizza dough recipe. I don’t eat that much meat, really, during an average week, and when I do, it’s chicken. I’ve pretty much cut out red meat for the most part, yes, I still cave in for a good, thick, juicy […]
