There’s nothing quite as gratifying as a cake that comes out exactly as planned…and even better. The tangy lemon layers of this cake came out precisely as desired. The raspberry cream moussey filling..Check. Fluffy as a cloud not-overwhelmingly-sweet whipped cream frosting. A+++ I’d make this cake again. And again. And again. Pretty. Tasty. Pretty Princess…
Fork it in Friday: Beef & Mango Stir-fry
Beef. The only 2 ways I’d eat it with a smile prior to this week were: 1. BK Whopper 2. Cincinnati-style chili. I have to say that this week’s FIIF meal really threw me for a loop. I couldn’t believe it when I caught myself slinking toward the skillet for seconds, carefully selecting prime beef…
Heaven on Ice and Some Real Flutzes and Waxels
No, Ice Capades doesn´t have a new lineup (although my mom and grandma would likely be 1st in line!) Heaven on ice, in this reference, means Straight. Up. Ice Cream. My friend Lindsay once shared with me that she imagined heaven to be a glorious place where one could lounge upon and nibble at giant…
Raspberry Crumb Cake
Although raspberries may be out of season in the north, that is no cause for denying yourself the privilege of scarfing down this sweet, streusel-topped buttery cake speckled with summer’s juiciest berries. Head to the freezer section, grab a bag of your favorite frozen berries, and have at it. This recipe, an Ina Garten adaptation,…
FIIF- Dinner Party
Fork it in Fridays- 3rd Edition On Tuesday night, with merely one day’s notice, I made up a yummy menu to serve for a small dinner party with Husband’s work colleagues. Each of these dishes was in it’s own a culinary treat, yet the entire ensemble came together in very little time. I especially loved…
Very Berry Cake
What is flowered on the outside, floured on the inside, and sandwiched with raspberry jam? Good job! You’re right, it’s very berry cake. In a pinch for a last-minute birthday celebration tomorrow, I rummaged through the pantry and found the bare bones for a berry cake of sorts: a half package of grape gelatin, half…
Fork it in Friday Faves…on Thursday and in pictures!
This week has been quite hectic at our house, as Husband has arrived home past midnight on more than one occasion due to a stressful overload of work at the office. Therefore, he has ordered out most nights this week, meaning my actual meals weren´t spectacularly stunning (with the exception of a penne with scallops…
Chocolate Fig Pie- an adaptable charmer
If there was one pie in my recipe stash that could woo the toughest of critics, this might just be it. In fact, it is so versatile and delicious that I could toss all other pie recipes (except Husband’s beloved lemon pie). Look no further, folks, this is it, chocolate pie that trumps all others….
Fork it in Friday First Edition
Welcome to the premiere of Fork it in Friday Faves, where I choose my favorite meal from the week´s dinner menu, and share it with you. Hoping to have a captivating, riveting meal to showcase in my 1st edition of the series, I was hesitant about my choice. You see, it´s a casserole, and not…
The beauty queen that wasn’t
Have you ever seen a celebrity without makeup? Sometimes, you’d never even recognize them if they passed by on the street. It’s magically transforming, the job that professional makeup artists can do, and most mornings I wish I could win a consultation to absorb a little of that genius. On the other hand, how many…
