 Print This PostMy mom sent this recipe to me. I discovered in talking with her today that the reason she sent it to me is because she was too scared to try it out herself. I have become the recipe guinea pig, and I am totally OK with that. There’s always a little bit of uncertainty when trying a new [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostGlad to report that I made it to Austin this weekend and got to see my pregnant sister and feel lil Kim kick, punch and hiccup a few times. Babies are amazing. I don’t think there will come a time in my life that I am not completely and totally in awe of [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostPaula Deen. What a woman. I actually do kind of like her! Yes, she can overdo it a bit when it comes to butter, bacon and cream, but I find her endearing. I’d like her to be in my family so that I could see her a few times a year at family functions. She’d be [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostA while back I lost my Canon camera in a horrific flood. A water bottle mysteriously opened in my purse, drowning and destroying my camera. Anyway, for a while I took pictures with my iPhone. Not spectacular, but sufficient photos. Then, Ben bought me a Sony camera that has served me well for the last [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostI love my husband. I love when he has a birthday because I get to shower him with gifts, and a special birthday dinner. I really love that his favorite cake is Italian cream because that is also MY favorite cake! What are the chances? We were meant to be. So, when November 30th rolls [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostIn Waco, our HEB had a bulk section where I could purchase just enough of a spice I needed for a recipe and pay a measly $0.27 for it. Here, I have to purchase an entire jar of a spice when I only need 2 teaspoons, and pay $5.99. A jar of cardamom was such a purchase, [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostSome ingredients are available all year long, but only truly acceptable at certain times. Canned pumpkin puree is one of those ingredients. You can buy it in July, but a pumpkin dessert just doesn’t seem like something I’d bring to a 4th of July picnic. Since it is now November I am going to take [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostVegetables are so versatile. They can be enjoyed raw, roasted, steamed, fried, sautéed, boiled, and surely a few ways I’ve neglected to mention. One of my favorite things about vegetables is that they can be enjoyed as a savory side dish, an entrée or in a sweet baked good. The butternut squash in this cake adds moisture and [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThe August 2009 Daring Bakers’ challenge was hosted by Angela of A Spoonful of Sugar and Lorraine of Not Quite Nigella. They chose the spectacular Dobos Torte based on a recipe from Rick Rodgers’ cookbook Kaffeehaus: Exquisite Desserts from the Classic Caffés of Vienna, Budapest, and Prague. This challenge really snuck up on me. I guess I could [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostI made SmittenKitchen’s raspberry buttermilk cake a few weeks ago. The cake was so lovely that I decided to try it with some different additions. Since I had blueberries, half a bag of raw blanched almonds and a tube of almond paste already on hand…that’s what I used. The other ingredients in the cake are [...] |
