Ever since I was a kid, I remember my dad putting his candy bars in the freezer because he supposedly enjoyed them more when they were frozen. Amusingly they were always buried under a bag of frozen peas or a box of pierogies, so I tend to think he was attempting to hide them from [...]

I was asked to participate in a conference call yesterday to interview Candace Nelson, the founder of Sprinkles Cupcakes. Although I have never had the opportunity to taste a cupcake from Sprinkles, I have admired them for their modern aesthetic appeal and jumped at the opportunity to speak with Candace. Since this post is all [...]

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 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, [...]

Last week I posted a recipe for Orange Whipped Cream Cake. The cake was very moist, tasty and was full of spring flavors…it even made the Foodbuzz Top 9 on Friday. The cake was adapted from Rose’s Heavenly Cakes and the post included a giveaway for Rose’s cookbook. In order to enter the giveaway, I [...]

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 [...]

Wow, it’s December already! The last week in November got away from me…looking back, it was a week of cooking, cleaning, cooking, shopping, cooking, eating. Now that my kitchen is no longer a whirlwind and my pants will button again…I can get back to baking and blogging. I made this recipe for a function at [...]

Pretty In Pink…

October 28, 2009

The month of October seems to be exiting as quickly as it entered. Since autumn is definitely my favorite season here in Ohio, it saddens me to see the gorgeous leaves hitting the ground and the temperature rapidly descending. The month of October is not just about the turning leaves, the warm sweaters, and the [...]

Pumpkin Maple Chip Cupcakes…

October 25, 2009

Confession…I get slightly obsessed with random stuff quite easily…for example cinnamon baking chips. I have used the Hershey’s brand in the past, but for some reason I could not find them at my local market. I then checked every single market within a 15 mile radius of my home and even enlisted help from Bri [...]

Hostess Inspired…

July 11, 2009

I have seen these cute Hostess inspired cupcakes popping up on Tastespotting and Foodgawker for quite some time, but I successfully withstood the peer pressure to make them until now! Ya see Bri is a serious cupcake fanatic, and always wants chocolate on chocolate, but being a food blogger I am not really one to [...]

Strawberry Cupcakes with Sensational Strawberry Frosting…

July 6, 2009

I purchased a bunch of really great strawberries from the market and I wanted to do something with them before they were past their prime. I did a little googling and came across a recipe on Martha Stewart’s site for Sprinkles Strawberry Cupcakes. I am sure most of you are aware of Sprinkles Cupcakes, but [...]
