Last week my landlord requested a birthday cake for her soon-to-be 3 year-old son. The piñata was “Cars” themed, so in keeping with this, I headed to the cake shop and found a cute plastic printout of Lightening McQueen (I’d forewarned her that my decorating skills are still a work in progress, so as not…
Soft Buttery Crown Rolls
After hearing a few grumblings that it was difficult to comment on my blog, I did a little investigation and fixed the problem. It’s nice to hear feedback, and recently there’s been next to none. Please, oh please, comment. I just need a little encouraging word to know that I am not posting recipes and…
Apple Pie Ice Cream
I love Blizzard’s, McFlurries, and Cold Stone Creations. It’s fun to pick out the yummy bits and pieces of the mix-ins and to play the artist putting together a culinary masterpiece. Except for one time at Cold Stone with my friend Amanda, who put together a horrific combination involving raspberries, gummy worms, and some kind…
EZ Peasy Lemon Cookies
As a kid, my mom made these cookies quite frequently. I love how soft the centers are in comparison to the crispy crust. They’re just the right mix of sweet and tart, and wonderful to take to summer gatherings. Of all lemon cookies, these are in my top 2 recipes of all time. They just…
Great Grandma’s Soft Orange Cookies
My Great Grandma was a force to be reckoned with in the kitchen. The women in my family had the bar set high. It took plenty of patience and practice on my mother’s part to even come close to my father’s grandmother’s cooking. Soft orange cookies are one of Great-Grandma Berndt’s heirloom recipes. They’re so…
Celebration (and cleanup) time!!
Today’s my birthday! Yay! Husband will be posting my bday dessert later, but in the meantime, I thought I’d share a bit of advice that I’ve accumulated over my 25 years… Sometimes Mom is right. Just sometimes though. Yesterday I baked 2 devils food cakes for a bday celebration at Husband’s workplace. These really were…

Come on in, grab a chilled glass of lemonade, stretch out on the couch, and let’s chat. With a basketful of a few variations of these swollen, golden, yeasty crescent rolls, you’ll be feeling A-okay in no time. Nothing says “down home” like a little lovin’ from the oven, and folks, that’s just what you’ll…
Sue Flay, Bobby’s mom?
Sue Flay- soufflé, get it? Can you tell I watch an overdose of Food Network? Inspired by Jamie at MyBakingAddiction, I went the way of the haughty taughty overpriced but elegant grown-up restaurants and made myself a chocolate orange soufflé for lunch. Its accompaniment, soy sloppy joes. Yes, laugh as you may. This is my…
Carmel Apple Turnovers
Still trying to make the best use of my 5kilos of dulce de leche, today’s recipe is for messy gooey caramel apple turnovers. Flaky pie dough hugs a tender filling of 3 varieties of apples, sugar, spices, and dulce de leche. Though I’m not yet an expert at picture-perfect empanadas, tarts, or turnovers, let me…
Cuatro Leches
Yesterday I made a Tres Leches to send to work with Husband to sell. It was nicely soaked and looking so tasty that I couldn’t keep my fork out of it. This one stayed at home. A grocery trip and a few hours later Cuatro Leches was born, a prototype of my creation. Picture the…
