Warning: the images you are about to see here may be graphic in nature and may be unsuitable for some readers. I don’t even know where to start with this post. For a long time I’ve been wanting to blog about the cronut phenomenon. Unless you’ve been living in a cave, you know about these … Continue reading
I posted last week about the emergency creme brûlée kit that Galen has available. I also happened to pick up his apple crumble version of the same thing. I don’t think apple crumble is even a thing without vanilla ice cream. So, again, if you find yourself in an apple crumble emergency (and who hasn’t, … Continue reading
I have been craving a banana muffin like nobody’s business this past week. The problem is, if I want a banana muffin, I have to make it myself, you know? (I know, first world problems, for sure). Anyway, I had some dark disgusting bananas calling my name last night and I just decided to go … Continue reading
I was “stuck” with the Blond this afternoon. I say “stuck” because really it isn’t a chore spending any time with him. He’s basically the best baking companion a girl could ever have. We stopped to look at some cast iron pans at Sears while I was there returning a Hawaiian shirt (again, long story, … Continue reading
I am so proud of these muffins. It was a whim, as most banana-themed baked goods are. You see the browning bananas on the counter and you think, “oh yeah, I should really do something with those”. Well I didn’t want a bread, thinking that muffins, being more portable, might be ok to make their … Continue reading
I love beets. I’m Ukrainian, so that must have something to do with it, right? The ECBF is new to beets. He knows his way around borscht, but when I asked him if I could make roasted beets one night he thought he’d only ever had them boiled. Ummm, what? Nooooo. Roasted beets are the … Continue reading
I know I know…I’ve been missing in action. The past few weeks have been a blur, I’ve been so busy with work, home, workouts, etc… but I am BACK baby and I’ve been saving up a good’er for you. But…you have to wait just a little bit longer. To say this post will be a … Continue reading
Seems to me that cookie butter is turning up every where these days. It used to be that I couldn’t get my hands on any unless I could get to a Trader Joe’s in the US, but now it’s everywhere I turn. I saw a jar at Walmart recently, then I saw some at the … Continue reading
I had it in my head to make cookies using coconut cream in the batter. I think I’ve mentioned before that the blog that started it all was Sugar Plum. She’s the reason I started blogging, and I’ve loved every single recipe of hers that I’ve ever tried (without exception). I went to see her … Continue reading
Any recipe that starts with a pound of butter has got to be good, right? These have been my favourite Christmas cookie since I was little. I managed to pry the recipe out of my mother’s hands – it’s one of her specialties. And don’t tell her – but I’m going to share it with … Continue reading
