Peach Cobbler

I have really never been a fan of warm fresh fruit desserts, I don’t loathe them, but they are just not my favorite. I find them to be a tad mushy and feel they often need an additional textural component like a crunchy topping on an apple pie or crisp crust enveloping sweet summer cherries. [...]

The combination of raspberries and lemons epitomizes summer in my book. There is sweet simplicity about this flavor duo that just works together to form some seriously stunning desserts. When I was asked to help bake a few sweet treats for our end of the year luncheon at work, I thought this blend of fruit [...]

I love spring…the warmer weather, the smell of fresh cut grass and blooming flowers makes me a happy girl. Spring means the farmers’ markets begin to open with plentiful supplies of rhubarb and asparagus. Although we love us some spring asparagus, I have never used rhubarb in any way, shape or form. Well, I found [...]

I hosted a small Easter dinner on Sunday. Since my dad and brother rarely make it out to visit us, I let them pick the dessert menu. My dad of course chose chocolate; more specifically chocolate mousse, which I will post later this week. My brother, Jared being his typical laid back self said he [...]

I like plans, to-do lists and schedules; rarely do I veer away from my “system”. Some think I am slightly obsessed, others totally relate to my anal behavior and embrace it, some even covet this part of my personality. Really I am just not a “fly by the seat of my pants” type of gal [...]

I am not a beer fan; honestly, I am not really an alcohol fan in general, but I particularly loathe beer. I get loopy when I drink, yep loopy and sick, so it’s just better for everyone that I stay far away from the stuff! Although I do not like to drink beer, I do [...]

I have been away from my blog and twitter for what seems like forever, but in reality, it’s only been a little over a week. A rough week, a sad week…keeping a long story short, our two and a half year old Maltese pup, Lola passed away unexpectedly last Monday. Lola was a happy, loving, [...]

My mom can be technologically inept; therefore, was not an avid reader of my blog until recently. Now she has access to a computer and has been schooled on how to check her email, facebook and my blog! In fact she called me today telling me how good these Maple Chip Waffles look! Way to [...]

If you read my previous post for Orange Cupcakes, you may recall me saying that it is freezing here in Ohio. This arctic chill has me baking with citrus and yearning for summer. Today’s recipe is from Rose Levy Beranbaum’s new book, Rose’s Heavenly Cakes. I adapted it slightly (see my notes at the bottom [...]

It is freezing here in Ohio and I mean a bone chilling, teeth chattering, freezing…a whopping 12 degrees. The bad part is that it’s not even snowing, my theory is simple…if it’s going to be this cold, at least gimme a snow day, but unfortunately I have not gotten a single one this year! In the [...]

Today’s deliciousness is a recipe for Cranberry and Orange Bread that I baked in mini bundts. Fresh cranberries are everywhere right now and I have seen them on sale at almost every grocery store in [...]
