Tweet February has been a good month. Despite the cold, good things have happened, including taking part in both the Daring Cooks’ and the Daring Bakers’ challenge. This month the bakers’ challenge from The Daring Kitchen was to make a quick bread. I just want to say, thank you!, thank you!, thank you! This bread [...]
Tweet So recently I decided to start attempting to make bread and other dough-involved recipes (stromboli). It really started when my great Aunt Carm, who is 101, asked how my father-in-law’s bakery was doing. I’m not married and my handsome man’s father is far from being a baker so of course I’m like ‘???’ as [...]
Tweet Last week I was pretty much glued to Pinterest…don’t lie, I know more than half of you do the same thing! It’s a great site with some wonderful ideas and DIY projects. If you aren’t part of it you should join, unless you have other ways to spend hours of your life! Anywayyy, of [...]
Tweet Let me just start off by telling you that this banana bread “cake” has been gone for several days now. It didn’t even last 24 hours. I brought it to work at 8am and it was gone by 10am. There were even coworkers from different floors coming to get a piece. Crazy right? I [...]
Tweet So we’ve made it through the holidays. I hope everyone had a very Merry Kwanzachristmakkah! I’m sure your days (and possibly past two months) have been full of cooking & baking nonstop. Want a break? I have a super easy, delicious dinner for you… A tasty, Toasty Turkey Reuben! (Say that 5 times fast!) [...]
Tweet Well hello not so nice weather. I’d like you to revert to your 80 something degree temperatures please! Labor Day always marks the beginning of school, end of summer and terrible luck getting a cab in the morning for me. I love, love, love the Summer heat (bring it on!) but there is something about [...]

Tweet Not sure if you guys have noticed but I get on random kicks. Like with the gnocchi and individual bread pudding I went with low cal and portion control (yay me!) then yesterday I talked about how chocolate marshmallow ice cream reminded me of my mom. Well I haven’t moved on from the good old [...]
Tweet In staying with the theme of portion control and lower calories I thought why not make individual portions of bread pudding…that taste like french toast! And I did some quick substitutions to make it a lower calorie option than the norm, without taking away from the taste! Honestly I had a bunch of egg [...]
Tweet This past weekend we had a small BBQ, small being about 10 people. I had planned on making all these different meals but as people cancelled, so were the dishes. I did finally get to make a recipe I’ve been holding on to for spicy shrimp. The original recipe, I have to say, was [...]
