Print This PostThis past weekend Ben and I went to Angel Fire, New Mexico and spent all day Saturday skiing. That’s right. I skied for the first time in 10 years. And get this, I did not fall, even once. Maybe that is because I played it safe and stayed on greens and easy blues. I was pretty proud [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostOur good friends Tim and Jackie had us over for the Saints v. Colts game Sunday night. There was so much food! The spread included black bean chili, queso, chips & salsa, veggies, layered Tex Mex salad, hot wings, and cookies. This is one of the main reasons I love the Superbowl.

Print This PostThis past Saturday I hosted and attended my first cookie exchange! It was a really fun afternoon of visiting with friends, and snacking on delicious cookies. I ended up with more than 4 dozen of eight different types of cookies, and I only had to make one kind. This is a pretty sweet deal. Get [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostHappy Halloween! I made these cookies for the trick-or-treaters at Ben’s office. I thought they would be more fun than little bags of candy, and too cute for words. I also thought they would be quick and easy. Cute, yes. Quick and easy, kinda. This Halloween treat can be made in a day, but I spread [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThere is something very special in store for the trick-or-treaters at BMWB this Friday! To prepare for this treat, I had to make some chocolate sugar cookies. These cookies were easy to put together, did not require any chilling, or rolling, and tasted sweet, crunchy and rich. They will also be the perfect shape and [...] By CarrieZ |
Print This PostThe 2009 October Daring Bakers’ challenge was brought to us by Ami S. She chose macarons from Claudia Fleming’s The Last Course: The Desserts of Gramercy Tavern as the challenge recipe. One of my best memories is eating a traditional French macaron at Harrods in London 12 years ago. A delicate, light, crunchy exterior with a [...] |
